Sir Trevor McDonald and his wife Josephine have reported separated after more than three decades together.
Sir Trevor McDonald, 81, and his wife Josephine, 65, have reportedly split after 34 years of marriage.
The news reporter is also said to have moved out of their £2.6million house.
According to reports, the couple realised "they weren't making one another happy anymore" but are remaining "amicable" amid the separation.
A source told The Sun: "It is sad but Trevor and Jo realised they weren’t making one another happy any more, and that it was time to move on with their lives.
“Trevor is still very much in demand work-wise, and wanted a fresh start. He feels young and still has a twinkle in his eye.
"He and Josephine have a long history so obviously they are still speaking, and everything is amicable."
They added: "Trevor has moved into his own apartment and friends are joking it is his bachelor pad.
“The split has been no secret from his inner circle, but for now he is very much focusing on his career.”
Heart.co.uk have reached out to Trevor's team for a comment.
Trevor and Josephine started dating after they met a ITN and wed in 1986.
They have one son together, Jack, who is 31-years-old.
Sir Trevor also has two children, Joanne and Tim, from his first marriage to Beryl.
The former couple met at a cricket match in Trinidad, but went on to divorce in 1985.
