Vanessa Feltz has been left heartbroken after splitting from her fiancé Ben Ofoedu.
The 60-year-old Celebrity Big Brother star said she has been left "extremely sad and disappointed" after the 16-year-long relationship ended.
Ben and Vanessa have been together since 2005 and make regular appearances together both on-screen and in magazines, but Vanessa has now admitted she is devastated.
She said: "I had thought it might take a bit longer before this came out, because it’s a lot to deal with — a shock like this takes some adjusting to — but I am extremely sad and disappointed that my 16-year relationship with Ben is over."
Confirming their split to The Sun on Sunday, Vanessa added: "Who knew I’d be single at 60? However, ladies, it’s onwards and upwards and I firmly believe that the best is yet to come."

Ben is thought to have now moved out of their £3.5million in St John’s Wood, North London.
The pair met back in 2005, with Vanessa having divorced Michael Kurer five years earlier following cheating allegations.
Ben popped the question a year after first meeting, but Vanessa had shared her worries about marrying him.
She admitted her divorce from her doctor ex-husband made her "wary of getting married again."
Speaking to OK! magazine, the TV presenter said her split from the father of her children derailed her "to the most terrific extent" and has made her "reluctant" to embark on a second marriage.
The BBC Radio 2 host married Michael Kurer in 1985 and the former couple welcomed daughters Allegra and Saskia into the world before their divorce in 2000.
The split occurred when former Celebrity Big Brother contestant Vanessa discovered the doctor was cheating on her via newspaper reports.
"I was so shocked and broken-hearted and rocked to my absolute core," the mum-of-two told the publication.
"It makes you wary of getting married again. The marriage seemed to be so disposable - it could just be chucked down the toilet in 10 seconds flat, even though I didn’t want it to be."
