Helen Briggs and Chet Johnson split after 8 years and three kids as Ex On The Beach star releases explosive statement
EX On The Beach stars Helen Briggs and Chet Johnson have split after eight years together.
The couple – who share three children – reunited on series four of the MTV show back in 2016.
But Helen, 27, today released an explosive statement accusing Chet of “cheating”.
The mum-of-three claimed she had seen “evidence” Chet had been unfaithful after “endless” allegations during their eight-year romance.
Helen wrote on Instagram: “I would like to inform everyone that I have made the decision to finally leave Chet.
“I have put up with endless cheating allegations throughout our eight-year relationship and although it hasn’t been easy to deal with, I have always chosen to believe him and ignore the rumours because it was the easier thing to do, even though every time my heart broke a little bit more inside.
“However I was finally presented with the evidence to prove that without a doubt, he cheated on me in Devon at the beginning of July. This is something I cannot choose to ignore.
“This has proved to be the final straw, and I am making this choice because I know it is best for myself, my children and our future.
“Chet can continue to live his life how he wants but the difference will be that it won’t be at the expense of my feelings anymore.”
The former couple Chet were one of the few success stories to come from Ex on the Beach.
She and Chet met on Instagram, and he described her on the show as the “one that got away”.
They are parents to four-year-old Ocean, Elvis, three, and Peach, seven months.
Chet is the brother of former X Factor and Stereo Kicks singer Casey Johnson.
Helen added: “My main focus is and will always be my children and I will be concentrating on starting my journey as a single mum-of-three,’ she went on.
“I would appreciate it if everyone can please respect my privacy at this really hard time, as it’s something I’m trying to process myself and will need time to heal from.
“I’ve got a long way to go before I’ll finally find my happiness but I know I’ll get there one day.”
