In a raw and emotional revelation, former S Club 7 sensation Rachel Stevens has confessed she's "still grieving" the collapse of her 12-year marriage to Alex Bourne. The pop star turned television personality opened up about the profound pain of their separation and the challenges of navigating life as a single mother to their two daughters.
The Painful Reality of Celebrity Splits
Stevens, now 46, didn't hold back when discussing the emotional turmoil she's experienced since the couple announced their separation in 2022. "There's been a lot of grieving," she revealed, describing the process as "really tough" and admitting that the healing journey continues to this day.
Co-Parenting Through Heartbreak
The star emphasized her commitment to maintaining a stable environment for her daughters, Amelie, 12, and Minnie, 8. Despite the personal turmoil, Stevens and Bourne have worked tirelessly to create a harmonious co-parenting arrangement, putting their children's wellbeing above everything else.
"We're doing it in the best way we possibly can," Stevens explained, highlighting the importance of keeping things "as calm as possible" for their young family.
Life After S Club Stardom
While many remember Stevens as the glamorous pop princess from S Club 7's heyday, she's now embracing a completely different chapter of her life. The transition from chart-topping fame to navigating personal challenges has been transformative for the star, who's learning to rebuild her identity outside of both her pop career and marriage.
Stevens' candid confession serves as a powerful reminder that celebrity relationships face the same challenges as any other, and that healing from heartbreak takes time, regardless of fame or fortune.
