Hugo Taylor marked his 40th birthday on Monday by sharing a heartfelt message and a tender photograph cuddling his two daughters, Sienna, six, and Aurelia, four. The former Made In Chelsea star reflected on his 'beautiful marriage' to Millie Mackintosh, from whom he separated in early February after seven years of marriage.
Reflections on Fatherhood and Gratitude
In his birthday post, Hugo expressed deep gratitude for his life, family, and friends. He wrote: '40 years around the sun. Today I am so grateful for the life I have lived, the love I have been shown and the joy I have received. To my amazing family, friends and everyone I have met along the road I thank you for making it a life to be remembered and celebrated.'
He continued: 'The last decade has given me a beautiful marriage, fatherhood, a career I am proud of and countless moments that I will treasure forever. I am genuinely proud of what I have done and the evolution I have gone through.' Hugo concluded with a touching message to his daughters: 'You are my heart and soul. I love you.'
Divorce Proceedings and Co-Parenting
Millie and Hugo have officially filed for divorce and both have appointed legal teams. The pair are said to be aiming for a 'clean break' while continuing to co-parent their daughters. Millie, 36, recently revealed she is leaving the family home they renovated together and moving into a new place of her own.
Sharing a glimpse of her new living space on Instagram, Millie wrote: 'Next chapter incoming... excited to make a new place my home.' The post also included updates about her half-term activities with her daughters and their pet pug, Luna.
Millie's New Chapter and Fitness Routine
Millie has been focusing on self-care and fitness, sharing her workout routine and noting that exercise helps her feel 'mentally and physically strong'. In a cheeky post, she joked that she works out not for health but 'just so I can dress like a sl*t this summer'.
The renovation of their £5 million family home, which Millie documented over the past year, has now come to an end. She previously shared the transformation of their kitchen into a cosy snug and expressed pride in the project. Now, Millie is ready to embark on a new chapter in her own space.
