The glamorous news reporter, 46, and her long-term partner, 49, are said to have separated last year, News.com.au reported on Friday.
However, sources were unclear whether the separation occurred before or after Westwood left his coaching job at the Hong Kong Football Club in November.
Daily Mail has reached out to McLaughlin for further comment.
Westwood and McLaughlin kept a very low profile during their relationship.

The pair met in late 2015 while she was in India working for Star TV on contract with Network Ten.
Channel Seven star Mel McLaughlin, 46, and her boyfriend Ashley Westwood, 49, have split after 10 years together
Westwood, a father of five by three different women, and his second wife Huma were staying at the same Mumbai hotel when he and McLaughlin met.
The British football manager, who was coaching a Malaysian soccer team at the time, has since said his romance with McLaughlin began in 2016, after his marriage ended.
In January that same year, McLaughlin made headlines when she was propositioned by West Indies cricketer Chris Gayle while he played for the Melbourne Renegades.

During a live cross, Gayle asked McLaughlin for a drink after a Big Bash League game in Hobart and then told her, 'Don't blush, baby,' when she looked embarrassed.
Gayle was later fined $10,000 and insisted he was joking.
McLaughlin was already divorced when she met Westwood, having separated from her musician husband Luke Panic in 2014.
The glamorous presenter, who was born and raised in Sydney, rose to prominence after joining Fox Sports in 2007.
Six years later, McLaughlin was poached by Network Ten to host their Big Bash coverage.

Westwood is an English professional football coach and former player for Manchester United.
He previously managed clubs in India, Malaysia and Afghanistan before landing a coaching role with Hong Kong.
However, he left the club in November after 15 months with the Premier League team when they failed to qualify for the 2027 Asian Cup finals.
He left soon after Hong Kong FC fell to Singapore in a 1-2 defeat.
