A story in today’s Mirror newspaper alleges that Billie often rushes to her ex-husband for support suggesting that she has never fully gotten over their divorce.

In the wake of news of her split from husband, Laurence Fox, it’s now believed that Billie could be spending more time than ever with the Radio 2 presenter.

It’s believed that Chris’ wife, Natasha Shishmanian, is concerned by how much time the pair have been holed up together.

The pair were married for four years until their divorce in 2004 and at the time the marriage raised eyebrows as Billie was just 18-years-old, 16 years younger than Chris.

However, despite the age gap and their subsequent split they have both continued to share a ‘special bond’.

A source told the newspaper on Friday: “She’s been leaning on Chris as the marriage began to go wrong. He’s her soulmate.”

“Laurence always got annoyed by the running off to the ex-husband every time they argued – and Chris’ wife isn’t too impressed either.”

“But he’s very protective of her and when there’s a problem Billie will always turn to Chris.”

The couple broke the news of their split on Laurence’s Facebook page this week, writing: ‘Laurence Fox and Billie Piper have separated,’ read the statement. 'No third parties are involved.’

The pair have two sons together Winston, now seven, and Eugene, three.
