Ashley and Fran Banjo Split

[crisscrosscringle]

I'm genuinely shocked. Can only assume there's a story brewing hence the decision to announce a separation that allegedly happened 18 months ago 2 days before Christmas.

I bet Fran is a Mumsnetter so sending

Fran Banjo indeed!

Who are these people? They sound like Borrowers.

Not necessarily story brewing...Kim Wilde also announced her divorce. Maybe the papers have only just come through. Shame though.

Why genuinely shocked?

Sad as I'm sure it is for one or both of them, I can't say I give the Banjo family much thought in my day to day life.

If you don't know who Ashley Banjo is you've clearly lived under a rock for a decade.

Google would be quicker than snarky comments on Mumsnet but ... en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashley_Banjo

Without me googling is Ashley the dancer guy ? if so that's a shame.

Aye but snarky comments are funnier than just Googling.

He seems to busy I often wondered if he was home much

Oh no. Announcing it so close to Christmas. My holidays ruined now! 🙄

They probably just not spending Christmas together so announce it instead of questions being asked

Can't say it's shocking, thousands of couples separate and divorce each year, what makes them different?

I am not shocked at all tbh, his ego had become huge so I can't imagine what it was like living with him. Sad for the little ones though.

Just had a Google they were childhood sweethearts, been together 16 years.

So sad, especially with such little children involved.

I must be under a rock too as never heard of these people.

I was a huge fan of Diversity but they seemed to get too involved in the BLM movement. Ashley used to be very humble but seemed to change when he got more exposure. Sad for his wife and small children.
