Holly Valance spotted without wedding ring following shock divorce announcement

Holly Valance has been spotted out without her wedding ring on following the news she is to divorce billionaire property tycoon Nick Candy. The 42-year-old pop singer has been married to the 52-year-old businessman since 2012 and they are parents to daughters Luka, 11, and Nova, seven.

Over the weekend, it was revealed the couple have decided to call time on their marriage - while sources close to the couple revealed they separated a year ago. Now Holly has been spotted out and about with no wedding band to be seen on her hand.

The mum-of-two was spotted at Heathrow's Terminal 5 in London on Saturday night, casually dressed in jeans and a black top. She had a designer cardigan draped on her shoulders and carried a large Dior tote bag and wheeled suitcase.

With her hair loose around her shoulders and hidden behind large sunglasses, the pop singer looked as thought she were as dressed down as possible to avoid drawing attention. However, images captured of the singer seemingly showed her making it clear to all that she was keen to broadcast her new marital status.

The Daily Mail published snaps that showed Holly walking with her left hand held prominently in front of her. With her right hand firmly on her carry case, her left was held in front of her as she moved her way through the airport.

She had one ring on her index finger, but her wedding finger was free of either an engagement or wedding ring. Her casual appearance came around the same time that news broke that her marriage to Nick, who is worth an estimated £1.4bn, had come to an end.

On Saturday, a source told The Sun: "This has been a very difficult period for both Nick and Holly, and they are keeping things private out of respect for their family. The joint parenting of their two amazing daughters remains their top priority."

The source added: "They’ve had to juggle a demanding lifestyle. Between family, public life, and Nick’s intense work commitments, it’s been a tough balance. This is a family matter and they’re doing their best to handle things thoughtfully. Privacy is obviously very important to them both, so they can focus on what’s best for the family."

Meanwhile, a spokesman for the couple said: "This is a private matter and we will not be making any further comment."

Holly rose to fame playing Felicity Scully on the iconic Australian soap opera Neighbours from 1999 until 2002. She returned to the show for a cameo appearance in 2022 after the show was cancelled and aired a final episode - which also saw major stars including Guy Pearce and Kylie Minogue return.

She has also enjoyed success as a pop singer - with her 2002 single Kiss Kiss topping the charts both in the UK and her native Australia. While Holly is believed to have a personal wealth of around £10 million, her husband has achieved billionaire status through his work as a property developer.

He launched a business with his brother, Christian Candy, 50, and formed the lucrative CPC Group in 2004 - a luxury property development firm. The brothers include the One Hyde Park complex on their portfolio - with the building and properties within estimated to be worth £2 billion alone.
