HOLLY VALANCE: Billion-dollar DIVORCE

THE PARTY'S OVER AS THE AUSSIE STAR SPLITS FROM BUSINESSMAN NICK CANDY

- Kylie Walters

The old superstition that the number 13 is bad luck has proved to be true for Holly Valance. The former Neighbours star is reported to have split from her mogul husband, Nick Candy, just months before the couple would have celebrated the milestone wedding anniversary.

"This has been a very difficult period for both Nick and Holly, and they are keeping things private out of respect for their family," a friend of the pair told British newspaper The Sun. "They've had to juggle a demanding lifestyle. Between family, public life and Nick's intense work commitments, it's been a tough balance."

The couple share two daughters, Luka, 11, and Nova, 7. “The joint parenting of their two amazing daughters remains their top priority,” the source added.
