Charlotte Church and Gavin Henson have reportedly brought their five-year relationship to an end.

The Welsh couple, who have two young children together, took the decision to split just six weeks after announcing their engagement.

The News Of The World reports that no-one else was involved in the decision, which has left both parties "distraught". Henson, 28, is now looking for a property close to their £1.2m house so that he can see Ruby, 2, and 1-year-old Dexter regularly.

A source said: "It is an incredibly sad state of affairs. Both Gavin and Charlotte are deeply distraught. But after a lot of soul-searching, they realised this is the best course of action for them and the children. It was a mutual decision.

"To the outside world they were a golden couple. The truth is, they had the same insecurities as anyone else. Charlotte is very headstrong. In the end, Gav found it too much. He was blaming her for his rugby career stalling. She hated him going out drinking with mates."

The 24-year-old Over The Rainbow judge is now said to be in the studio working on a new album to relaunch her pop career.
