Gary Lineker is divorced by ex-wife Michelle on the grounds of his "unreasonable behaviour".
The couple originally separated in April, saying the split was amicable. However, documents before the court stated that Lineker had caused his wife "stress and anxiety," and asked that Michelle be granted a decree nisi "dissolving my marriage with the respondent on the ground stated in my petition and to order the respondent to pay the costs of this suit”.
According to the documents, Lineker will leave the couple's home and live elsewhere, enabling his wife and four children to remain on the property.
