Shelby Tribble and fiance Sam Mucklow have reportedly split.
The TOWIE stars are said to have ended their romance almost three years after welcoming son Abel, who turns three next month.
Shelby, 30, and Sam, 31, are reportedly determined to keep things “normal” for their son despite ending their relationship, which began in 2018.
The news may not come as a shock to fans, as the last photo Shelby posted of herself and Sam together was in June, during a family vacation.
Shelby has also hinted at problems on social media, writing in August, “Go where you are celebrated and not tolerated,” alongside a solo shot during a night out.

MailOnline has contacted representatives for Shelby Tribble and Sam Mucklow for comment.
In November 2020, the couple welcomed son Abel into the world at Queen’s Hospital Romford, with Sam describing Shelby as an ‘absolute soldier’.
The couple announced her pregnancy in May that year, posting a loved-up photo with a baby scan photo as she showed off her blossoming baby bump.
Shelby wrote, “Something amazing makes us happy, we’re changing our names to mom and dad ❤️.”
Just days later, Shelby and Sam held a gender reveal party where they discovered they were welcoming a baby boy.
Oh baby! The couple announced her pregnancy in May 2020, posting a loved-up photo with a baby scan photo as she showed off her blossoming baby bump.
Shelby and Sam have had a turbulent on/off relationship, which was well documented on reality TV show TOWIE.
The couple started sleeping together on a ‘friends with benefits’ basis, but things quickly turned sour when Sam decided to pursue a romance with Demi Sims during a group trip to Thailand in 2019.
During a heated argument, Sam called Shelby a ‘s**g’, but months later the couple decided to give it another try.
However, they were met with opposition when Shelby’s best friend Clelia Theodorou told her that she had felt abandoned because Shelby spent all her time with Sam.
The former BFFs had several bitter arguments, with Clelia accusing her of not being there for her when she was at her lowest point after splitting from her boyfriend (Sam’s best friend).
At that point, Shelby and Sam decided to take a step back from TOWIE to focus on their romance.
Previously, Shelby dated TOWIE’s Tom McDonnell and Pete Wicks. Sam previously had a romance with Nicole Bass from Ex on the Beach.
