The pair split nine months ago.

Ant McPartlin and his estranged wife Lisa Armstrong are reportedly to divorce today as a judge will grant a ‘decree nisi’ to finalise proceedings.

The divorce will be granted on the grounds of ‘ unreasonable behaviour’ after Ant admitted to adultery.

The case is to be heard today, with a quick decision being made after months of drama for the pair.

“It’s taken some time to iron things out but after several months their marriage will officially be over in a matter of seconds,” a source told The Sun.

According to sources, Ant admitted to committing adultery due to his relationship with former PA Anne-Marie Corbett starting before he and Lisa had formally divorced.

The source also revealed that Ant and Lisa are currently negotiating a financial settlement.

The former couple were married back in 2006 but announced earlier this year that they had split.

In June, reports surfaced that Ant had moved on with current-girlfriend Anne-Marie.
