Emmerdale Star Michelle Hardwick Opens Up About Rosie Nicholl Divorce

Michelle Hardwick insists that she’s still good friends with her ex-wife Rosie Nicholl, despite their surprise divorce. The Emmerdale star, who plays Vanessa in the hit British soap drama, opened up about her relationship with Rosie on the Lorraine show on Wednesday, July 26.

Michelle and Rosie shocked their fans by announcing their split last year. The couple were married for just one year. And according to Michelle, their split was amicable and they even share custody of their two dogs, Harley and Jess.

Even though she wouldn’t go into detail about their divorce, Michelle says that everything is fine. At least that’s what she wants her fans to believe.

She explained, “We’re all good, we’re still friends. We’ve got our two dogs. It is [difficult] with this job, especially as I’ve been lucky over the last few years with Vanessa’s storylines. I’ve been quite busy.”

Earlier this year, reports indicated that Michelle pulled the plug on her marriage simply because her and Rosie were “drifting apart.” Even though she called their split “sad,” she said it’s just “one of those things that happen.” She added that the two were better off as friends and roommates than as a married couple.
