X Factors Frankie Cocozza splits from wife he has a son with after four years

The X Factor star Frankie Cocozza has split from his wife of four years Bianca Murphy.

Frankie originally confirmed that he'd began dating Bianca in October 2017 with a loved-up snap in Bali. The photo of the couple in happier days is the only one that Frankie hasn't deleted from his Instagram.

By May 2018, they were married in a Brighton ceremony, before moving to Australia and welcoming their son, also called Frankie, in May 2019.

The couple have shared telling signs that it's over between them.

Frankie, 29, has posted cosy photos of himself and rumoured new girlfriend Emma Stubbs, who is a senior lingerie designer at Honey Birdette, on a beach in Australia's Bondi to his Instagram account.

He captioned the gallery: "BBH mushy peanut nut."

Bianca has changed her Instagram name back to Murphy from her married name. Her last post with Frankie was in November 2019.

“Frankie and Bianca were madly in love but things just fizzled out over time," a source told The Sun.

“They have remained on good terms for the sake of their son, Frankie Jr, but have both moved on."

OK! has contacted Frankie's representative for comment.

Frankie originally found fame when he auditioned for The X Factor in 2011 and viewers were shocked at the revelation that he had his sexual partners tattooed on his bum.

He made it through to the live shows with Gary Barlow as his mentor, but his stint was short-lived after he admitted to taking cocaine and was removed from the show.

He enjoyed a reality TV career which included becoming runner up on Celebrity Big Brother in 2012 and then appearing on Celebs Go Dating, where he had a short romance with Charlotte Dawson, just before meeting his wife.

Earlier this year, Frankie spoke on the Fair Points podcast hosted by James Smith and opened up about his struggles with drug addiction.

"I'm a drug addict. Simple as that. I just am. I love cocaine. I'm sorry, I do," Frankie stated, before adding that he'd still be doing it "if the money hadn't run out".

However, he has changed his mindset since becoming a father. “I have made a conscious effort to try and stop since the bubba’s been born," he explained.
