Real Housewives of Cheshire star splits from partner just months after horror car crash
REAL Housewives of Cheshire star Rachel Lugo has split from her partner Nick after nearly three years.
The 48-year-old called time on their romance just months after he was involved in a horror smash as they struggled to make it work.
An insider said: “Rachel and Nick had a good run but she has a lot going on in her life and it reached a dead end.
“Rachel has made it very clear that she doesn’t want to marry again, and it was always a contentious issue with Nick.”
Nick, 52, appeared alongside Rachel on the show but the pair had a major falling out after he heard her saying she would say no if he proposed.
In June, Nick was involved in a terrifying car crash, which completely wrote of the car but he managed to walk away unscathed.
Speaking about their romance in the past, Rachel told Closer: “Anyone knows that with blended families it’s really tricky. It’s frightening as well when it starts getting more serious, as to how it’s going to work.
“When you’ve gone through a divorce, it’s not something you ever want to go through again. So, yeah, people were shocked [following the reunion]. I’ve had people…their daughters have watched it and said, ‘Oh, mummy! Are Rachel and Nick not together anymore?’
She added: “You can work through most things with communication. We’re two and a half years now and you can reach a point where you have to of. ‘Okay, what next?’, so that’s something at the minute. We’ll see.”
Rachel was previously married to property developer John Lugo and is a mum of five.
She split from John after 24 years of marriage.
A rep for Rachel has been contacted for comment.
