    “The children are settled in school and do not want to go back to America, so they plan to stay in Cheshire with their mum.
    “It will be very hard for everyone as a managerial job is much more time consuming than being a player, so nipping back to the UK will be hard.”
    The couple married in 2008 and have four sons — Kai, 12, Cass, four, Klay, nine, and Kit, six. But they found life difficult when they moved to Washington DC in June 2018.

    “There were no third parties involved; it is just a sad fact that their marriage has run its course.
    “Leanne has flourished in single life and has removed her wedding ring.
    “She has told people she feels free and is working hard on her businesses and flourishing as an independent woman.

    “There have been rumours of trouble in their marriage for a while but they put a brave face on publicly.
    “Now it is officially over and they are doing their best to co-parent their children as they build their lives as separate individuals.”
    Leanne was seen without her wedding ring as she partied with pals at top Manchester eaterie Menagerie earlier this month.
    The day before she had posted a cryptic message on Instagram.
    Alongside a picture of her without the wedding band, Leanne wrote: “When you realise that the one relationship in your life that needs the most attention, love, kindness, respect and compassion, is the one with yourself, your life will improve dramatically.”
    The Wag is close pals with Coleen Rooney and was absent from the premiere of husband Wayne’s documentary in Manchester earlier this month, which Wes attended alone.
    Leanne, who has daughters Halle, 19, Lilia, 14, and Lola, 11, with Wes, previously spoke about the difficulties of dating a footie star.
    Defender Wes signed for Manchester United aged 14 and played for the club until he was 32.
    He went on to star for Sunderland and Blackburn Rovers and made 23 England appearances, scoring once.
    Leanne said in 2019: “Yes we’ve got a lovely life and all this money and I’m not saying the money isn’t great, but when you’re in it you’re living in this bubble.
    “Although the fans can be amazing they can also be very cruel.
    “It must be hard [for footballers] to deal with to be on top one minute and hated the next for a bad kick or missing the goal.
    “We are the ones that are left to pick up the pieces and bear the brunt of whatever is left at the end of their careers.
    “Sometimes it’s hard being alone a lot. The lads are away a lot, especially if involved in a high profile club and England international too.”
    A representative for Wes refused to comment on the split.

    During the service, the couple repeated the word “qubool”, meaning “I accept”, three times.
    Insiders said Algeria-born Manchester City ace Riyad, 30, and 23-year-old Taylor will have a second ceremony to make their union legal in the UK.
    A source explained: “Riyad and Taylor are now legally married under Islamic law following their ceremony late last year. 
    “For them as a couple it was important to follow the traditions of his religion.

    “For them as a couple it was important to follow the traditions of his religion.
    “The ceremony was short but sweet and has started them on their path to their second wedding which is very much going to be the main event. Taylor and Riyad are so excited and are very much in love.”
    The Sun exclusively revealed that the pair got engaged in June last year after 16 months of dating.

    Riyad went down on one knee with a £400,000 ring during a holiday in Mykonos, Greece, with Taylor’s parents — Real Housewives Of Cheshire star Dawn, 47, and former footballer Ashley, 51. 
    They were joined by close friends for lunch and Riyad proposed after the meal.
    Riyad and Taylor bought a £2million house in Cheshire together last year.
    He was previously married for six years to the mother of his two daughters, Rita Johal, 29. 
    In February 2020 The Sun told how Riyad had called time on their marriage.

    It’s a lucky escape for Mrs Kane… Man City ruined my marriage, says Riyad Mahrez’s former wife Rita Johal

    THE ex-wife of Man City ace Riyad Mahrez has claimed he turned his back on her and their family after signing for the club.Today singer Rita Johal says the winger, who earns £160,000 a week, transformed from a down-to-earth dad who shopped in Asda into a “big head” after his move from Leicester City.

    And she thinks England ace Harry Kane’s wife Kate should breathe a sigh of relief now that his £160million transfer to Man City has collapsed.
    Rita, 28, exclusively told The Sun on Sunday: “I can’t comment on other people’s lives but moving there changed my husband.
    “Harry Kane’s wife probably had a lucky escape. Others should be careful.
    “Riyad let fame go to his head. He changed when he went to Manchester City.
    “But a footballer’s career is short-lived.
    “They should remain grounded and loyal to those they care for, even when they have moved up to a bigger club, because when it’s all over they will realise who’s truly there.”
    Rita told how she changed her faith for Muslim Riyad, stopped drinking alcohol and accepted a quiet life with the star when she first met him seven years ago.
    But when he moved north for £60million in 2018, she says Riyad, 30, turned cold towards her.

    Now he has moved on and is engaged to influencer Taylor Ward.
    Rita said: “The Riyad I met is a different person to the one he is now. He parties, he acts like a flash footballer.
    “I don’t hate him, that’s a strong word, but I am shocked and saddened by what he has done.
    “He suddenly left me, blaming the pressures of playing at Manchester City.
    “Now he spends all his time jetting around the place on holiday without a care in the world.”
    Rita, who has worked as a film extra in Kingsman: The Secret Service, and Cinderella, was walking in Oxford Street in her home city of London when Riyad tapped on her shoulder.
    She said: “It was 2014 and I didn’t have a clue who he was. He wasn’t a big name then.
    “But he was charming and I liked him. He was lovely to me, constantly telling me I was beautiful, asking about my life, making me feel special.
    “He said he loved me and wanted me to have his children.”
    The pair became inseparable and just four months later they married in a secret ceremony.
    Rita said: “We had a small wedding at home.
    “I loved him, I wanted to do that. I changed the way I was for him. I changed my faith.
    “I stopped drinking, as he didn’t drink. I loved his values. And I wanted a solid family life.
    “I wanted us to be strong together like my own parents and he felt the same way.
    “Our wedding was low key at home with two priests and our close family.
    “We were madly in love and we wanted to be together for ever.”
    They went on to have daughter Inaya in 2015.
    During the pregnancy, Rita suffered such bad pre-eclampsia she feared she would die and was wary of trying to have another child.
    But a year later the couple ­­welcomed a second daughter, Ayla.
    She said: “I was terrified about having more children but Riyad really wanted us to extend our family. I was scared but he kept reassuring me everything would be OK. We were overjoyed when Ayla was born.
    “At first we were just a normal family.
    “Riyad wasn’t flash. Yes, he was a footballer, but we were just your regular couple with our two little girls.
    “He went and played football, I was a stay-at-home mum. We would watch films together.”
    But in July 2018, Manchester City confirmed his signing on a five-year contract. The transfer fee of £60million made him the club’s then most expensive player.
    Rita says that is when their lives changed completely. Rita, now living in Beaconsfield, Bucks, said: “The loving, humble and caring Riyad disappeared.
    “He started to believe his own hype. He had yes men who told him what he wanted to hear. I started to see the change in him.
    “He stopped asking me how my day went and what I was going to do.
    “I think I became the boring wife at home and he had this glitzy lifestyle away from me.
    “He started to just ignore me.
    “Obviously I asked what was going on and he would say, ‘I am pressured, it is the football, I am stressed’.”
    Things went downhill further until the Manchester City ace moved out of the family home in 2019.
    Rita says: “It got worse and worse. Eventually he moved into our spare room.
    “And then one day he left and checked into a hotel.
    “He just left the family. He left us — he chose a new life.
    “I begged him to come home. He said he couldn’t because he felt so pressured because of football.
    “The truth is he was bored. It was dreadful for me.
    “His fans bullied me online and I felt like a failure.

    “For a long time I didn’t have the strength to speak about it.
    “And then when I did, because I had publicised the fact he had walked out, I was the one accused of cheating.
    “There was a huge backlash on social media and I was bullied again, even though in my eyes I was the victim.”
    Last February Riyad started dating Taylor Ward, the daughter of Real Housewives Of Cheshire stars Dawn and Ashley Ward, himself a former footballer.
    Taylor, 23, moved into his luxury flat in December last year and earlier this year they bought a £2million home in Cheshire.
    And in June, the Algeria national team captain proposed with a £400,000 custom-made engagement ring.
    Rita, who is now dating 28-year-old music producer Fumez The Engineer, said: “I found out that he was going out with Taylor via Instagram, because people kept tagging me in photos of him.
    “He didn’t have the decency to tell the mother of his children that he had a new partner.
    “I found out that he was engaged to Taylor on Instagram too. I wish him all the happiness there is but he appears to live a different lifestyle now.
    “He stopped talking to me for a long time after he left. I don’t know why. I did nothing wrong.
    “He will mainly talk via my mum, which is ridiculous. It’s hurtful.
    “I just hope once the glitz of football has gone he doesn’t live to regret it.”
