Coronation Street’s Kym Marsh has opened up about taking a break from her relationship.

Kym, writing exclusively in her column for OK! Magazine, has revealed why she and her fiance Dan Hooper have decided to take time apart.

She wrote: “It’s been a really tough and upsetting time.

“It was a really difficult decision for us both to make, but something that we mutually felt we had to do, as we both needed some space.”

She added: “We’ve been in contact daily though.

“We needed to take a step back, have some time on our own and figure out where things have gone wrong and see if we can fix it – I hope that we can.

“I’ve said in the past that I’ve felt happier with Dan than with anyone and that’s true, but issues come up in relationships and you have to try and deal with them.”

Dan took to Twitter last week to have his say.

Nothing's broken off. We are having space and a break. False headlines. Please leave us alone with the horrible comments.
