‘Fraser and I, after 10 wonderful years together have made the difficult decision to amicably separate. As many of you know, when children are involved, decisions such as these are not taken lightly.
‘We walk away with nothing but love for each other and the only thing that matters to us is Nellie, for without each-other we wouldn’t have been blessed with her.’
Stacey and Frasier couple married in 2017, two years after he proposed on the rooftop of a hotel in Phuket.
Previously, Stacey dated Lawson guitarist Ryan Fletcher before they split in 2013.
Stacey found fame in S Club 7’s young spin-off S Club Juniors in 2002, with the likes of Frankie Bridge and Rochelle Humes.
After the band disbanded in 2005, she tried to make a name for herself in modelling, music and presenting – as well as finding love with husband Fraser.
Stacey auditioned as a solo artist on The X Factor in 2009, making it far as Judges’ Houses in Dubai, but wasn’t chosen by Dannii Minogue to progress further to the live shows.
Fraser is a former professional footballer who played as a defender in the Football League for AFC Wimbledon, Luton Town, Stevenage and Newport County.

Stacey and Fraser’s wedding day back in 2017 didn’t go to plan, with a ‘drunk’ Stacey throwing wedding cake ‘at Fraser’s face’ – causing a ‘bust-up’ as his mum had lovingly made the sweet treat.
A source told MailOnline: ‘All was going to plan until the speeches, when Stacey decided to stand up and give her own speech.
‘The speech was longer than the three previous put together and you could see the other guests cringing as she repeated the same thanks over and over again, and regaled her life story.
‘Following the speech, Stacey danced by herself with only the videographer for company on the dance floor. She then gave a 10-minute rendition of The Zutons, Valerie, which covered the four minute song two and a half times.
‘Once her cover of the song was finished she took to the stage once more to demand everybody converged on the dance floor as it was her wedding.
The source continued: ‘Guests were unsurprisingly reluctant, however Stacey didn’t leave the stage until everyone was there in front of her.
‘After she threw the cake in her husband’s face, they were spotted in the garden arguing with representatives of both families acting as peacekeepers.
‘The night ended for Stacey when she got a taxi to a hotel, by herself at 20:30. Fraser continued to enjoy the evening until the early hours…’
