Willett announced her separation from former fiancé Fraser Carruthers in 2020 after the coronavirus pandemic forced the couple to postpone their wedding that July

She told Instagram followers at the time: 'After months of consideration and many long and thoughtful conversations, Fraser and I have decided to separate. As you can imagine, this is an incredibly hard time for us as a family.

'This year has provided so many uncertainties and forced us to postpone and eventually cancel our wedding as well as being new and full time parents and government closures of businesses.

'Ottilie is our world and remains our number one priority. We also share so much love and respect for one another and our beautiful daughter and we are eager for her to grow up watching us mature into a modern family, as close friends.

'Fraser is the most incredible father and it fills me with great sadness that we have been unable to make our relationship work.'
