Call the Midwife star Helen George confirmed her break up from Jack Ashton earlier this year in a statement that she shared with the Mirror. It read: "Some months ago, we separated. Our two beautiful girls remain the focus and I respectfully ask for privacy for this next chapter."
The couple started dating in 2016 after meeting on set in South Africa; Helen stars as Trixie Franklin, while Jack used to play Reverend Tom Hereward, but they have now called time on their romance. Helen shares her daughters, Wren Ivy and Lark with her former partner.
We've found some adorable photos of the family below – take a look…

Helen said: "The Toniebox has become pretty important in our house, a massive part of Wren’s bedtime routine which we’re now introducing to the baby. I’ve lost count of how many of these I’ve given to friends and family over the years as gifts. Wren’s current favourite Tonie is Paddington, and I’m a sucker for Matthew Macfadyen’s dulcet tones reading The Snowman."
