Cat Deeley and Patrick Kielty Present United Front on Co‑Parenting After Split

Their coordinated parenting plan aims to keep routines steady for their two young sons and protect family privacy.

Overview

  • The couple announced their separation in July 2025 in a joint statement that said there was no third party involved and pledged to remain united as parents.
  • Deeley told The Sunday Times in an interview published Sunday that she and Kielty share custody roughly 50-50 and that the arrangement requires careful organisation.
  • Deeley confirmed she employs a nanny to help with daily childcare while juggling her role on ITV’s This Morning, which eases some practical pressures on both parents.
  • Kielty has spoken publicly about returning to RTE’s The Late Late Show and emphasised that being present for school runs and everyday family moments is now a priority for him.
  • Tabloid reports have noted peripheral details such as a Hampstead house sale and social sightings, but both presenters have repeatedly asked for privacy and kept the focus on protecting their sons Milo and James.
