The 'Emmerdale' star - who plays pregnant landlady Chas Dingle in the ITV soap - has called time on her relationship with her boyfriend Rudi Coleano but they're remaining amicable for their three daughters; Lola, 13, and two-year-old twins Missy and Betsy.
A spokesperson for the pair told Digital Spy in a statement: "Lucy Pargeter has confirmed she has separated from her long term partner Rudi Coleano and while no longer together their main priority is raising their three daughters."
The pair were engaged for 12 years but never actually made it down the aisle.
Speaking in 2012, the 42-year-old actress said: "We were in Dubai about a month ago and we said: 'Sod it, while we're here, let's do it'.
"Then I thought all our mates would be like, 'Oh cheers, thanks for the invite'."
The brunette beauty - who conceived her twin girls via IVF in 2017 following an unsuccessful round in 2015 - recently said she and Rudi were hoping to give IVF one more shot in the future as they still have two frozen embryos.
She said previously: "We still have two frozen embryos but I can guarantee they will be more girls. Mind you, most people say that when you go from two to three children, it's a massive difference, so three to four might not be that bad."
Meanwhile, Lucy is currently wrapped up in a big storyline on 'Emmerdale' as her alter-ego is pregnant with her third child after her daughter Gracie died from bilateral renal agenesis just minutes after she was born late last year.
