LOVE IS DEAD: Emma and Lachy Wiggle announce they've separated.

Two years after saying ‘I do’, The Wiggles couple Emma Watkins and Lachlan Gillespie have separated.

The children’s entertainers best known as the Yellow and Purple Wiggles respectively made a statement today about their decision to split.

⭐️ Lachy ⭐️ We have, and continue to share, the most beautiful life together, but we wanted to let you know that privately for the last six months we have been navigating through a trial separation, and we have made the decision to separate as a couple. Throughout that period, we have performed hundreds of shows together and that is always a continued source of joy for us both. We have embraced this as a very positive change in our relationship. Our incredible friendship has been strengthened throughout this time and what we have discovered is that, more than ever, first and foremost we love and adore performing as Emma and Lachy in The Wiggles and having the privilege of celebrating this happiness with extraordinary families around the world. We have chosen a different path to travel in our personal lives, but please know that we are stronger than ever and we can’t wait to see you at a show soon. We will not be commenting beyond this, and we thank you in advance for respecting our privacy. Lots of love, Emma and Lachy xx @lachy_wiggle

The pair began dating in secret for two years and only ‘came out’ about their relationship in 2015, shortly before they got engaged.
