Kyle is no longer living at the family's £2.5million property in Cheshire.
Announcing the pair's split on Wednesday, Annie wrote on Instagram: "I am posting this in response to growing recent media enquiries about my marriage to Kyle and in an effort to protect my family against the intensity of the media spotlight.

It comes after a number of scandals in which the footballer had repeated romps in a Bentley with Ex On The Beach star Laura Brown in 2019.
After rekindling their romance, it was then revealed in March 2020 that model Lauryn Goodman was having Kyle’s baby.
Annie again forgave Kyle, but he found himself embroiled in further controversy when he was then caught breaching Covid lockdown rules by having an orgy with two hookers.
