Millie Mackintosh and Professor Green's two-year marriage officially came to an end on Wednesday in a 'quickie' divorce hearing lasting just 30 seconds. Neither star attended the hearing at Central London Family Court, which came three months after they announced their decision to split.

Former Made in Chelsea star Millie was granted a decree nisi by District Judge Heather MacGregor after filing divorce papers citing "unreasonable behaviour" for the split.

Millie Mackintosh and Professor Green have been granted a 'quickie' divorce

Millie and Professor Green, real name Stephen Manderson, announced the end of their marriage in a joint statement released to The Mirror in February.

The pair said: "It is with sadness and regret that we confirm our separation. It is a mutual decision, we still care deeply about each other and would like it to be known that it is on amicable terms and we wish each other well."

The statement of separation came a week after Professor Green revealed that he had only seen his wife once this year. Speaking to The Sun, the rapper said that they were both so busy working on their respective projects that they found it difficult to make time for each other.

The couple were married for two years

"We had seen each other like ships in the night, but we weren’t getting any quality time together. It is good sometimes to have space, but it is also difficult when you miss someone for that long. It used to happen when I was touring. You would have a day off and try and have the best day of your life, But then you’d just start arguing. That is a relationship. "The best way is a balance and being really clever with the time you do have together and making the most of that," he added.

Following the split Professor Green has dismissed claims that he is dating banking heiress Kate Rothschild, while Millie has been linked to former flame Hugo Taylor.
