Strictly Come Dancing star Ore Oduba and his wife Portia Oduba have split after nine years. The former star of the hit BBC ballroom show, 38, confirmed this week that their relationship had come to an end. Addressing fans on social media, Ore said: “Hi guys.
Portia and I are said to announce that we separated earlier this year.” Ore, who won Strictly back in 2016 with his pro partner Joanne Clifton went on: “We’re so grateful for all the love you’ve shared with us both over the years. “And we want to thank you in advance for respecting our privacy as we navigated this difficult transition.
We will be making no further comment. Be kind, always.” CBBC star Ore met Portia in 2010 at Loughborough University and they both quickly fell in love.
Four years later, Ore popped the question and they tied the knot the very next year in a stunning 2015 ceremony at Penshurst Place in Kent. Gushing about his and Portia’s big day, Ore previously said to The Mirror : “On my wedding day I cried from 11 in the morning until 2am that night. There's a picture of me wailing, my best men there laughing and Portia absolutely cracking up next to me – I am the only one crying.
” Portia and Ore welcomed a son named Roman in 2018 and in 2021 their second child, a little girl named Genie, was born. Follow Mirror Celebs on Snapchat , Instagram , Twitter , Facebook , YouTube and Threads ..
