Kym also has two older children;\u00a0David, 29, and Emilie, 28, whom she shares with ex-partner builder\u00a0Dave Cunliffe.<\/p>\n

Last year, Jamie, 50, and Kym reunited as they attended Polly’s 14th birthday party.<\/p>\n

Kym shared the snap to her Instagram Stories and tagged Jamie’s fianc\u00e9e Jess Bell, while writing: ‘Mum and dad sharing our Polly’s birthday together’.<\/p>\n

Kym and Jamie first met in 2007 and started dating in 2008.<\/p>\n

In 2012, they tied the knot separated the following year and divorced in 2014, with Kym said to be stunned by Jamie’s decision to break it off.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

A friend told Now magazine at the time of their split: ‘When she spoke about wedding bells last year, Kym really meant it – this relationship was for keeps.<\/p>\n

‘They weren’t getting on, but she still loved him, so she stuck by him. But it was Jamie who split them up. It’s best in the long run, but for the moment the wounds are very fresh for Kym.’<\/p>\n

Last year, Jamie, 50, and Kym reunited as they attended Polly’s 14th birthday party. The pair beamed on either side of their teenage daughter for the celebratory meal<\/p>\n

Kym married a third time in 2021, when she tied the knot with soldier Scott Ratcliff<\/a>, before their split was announced in May 2023.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, according to The Sun, they decided to end their marriage due to the strain of work, but ‘cracks’ had been present in the relationship for some time.<\/p>\n

The pressures of their careers led to the couple attempting a trial separation earlier this year, before deciding to officially split.<\/p>\n

Kym then began a whirlwind romance with toyboy Samuel Thomas, 29, who is 19 years her junior, but was reported last year the pair had split after six months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kym Marsh has shared a rare photo with lookalike teenage daughter Polly as she celebrated her 15th birthday.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":364113,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[539,93,61,60,164268,1489],"class_list":["post-364112","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-dailymail","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-kym-marsh","tag-tvshowbiz"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/364112","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=364112"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/364112\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/364113"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=364112"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=364112"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=364112"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
