Rosie Millard, the owner of the BBC-owned charity, has broken up with her husband and four children and is currently living with a tv producer worth more than a million.
The Sunday Post revealed that when the landlady of the children's show moved away, her family was preparing for Christmas 2018.
New joy
She moved into the home of 66-year-old award-winning television producer Alexander Graham, chairman of the Scott Trust, which includes the Guardian.
Graham also left his 69-year-old wife, best-selling author Maeve Harlan, the mother of three children.
Friends of the couple said Millard and Graham, 54, lived in north London, not far from her former residence.
In December 2018, Millard left her husband, Philip Klosser, who had been married for more than 20 years, and her husband was said to be "devastated."
Mr Klossell, a television producer, has secured custody of two of his four younger children, Phoebe, 22, Gabriel, 20, Hornie, 17, and Lucian, 15.
He still lives in their £2 million Victorian townhouse, one of the most popular residential areas in the region, set in Millard's 2015 novel The Square.
Old love
A friend told the Daily Mail today: "Rosie and Alex were happy together, but this time was painful for everyone. It was very difficult at first, but now the children's situation is starting to improve and everyone is doing their best to look forward. Things are starting to pick up, but as with anything so difficult, it will take time. At the end of 2018, Rossi left. She moved out of the house before Christmas, which was a painful decision for her. There are still problems, and people still feel pain. ”
"Graham and Harlan have been together for decades, they have two daughters, both in their early 30s, and a son, almost 30, but the couple didn't get married until 2010."
Harlan's first book, Own It All, was so popular that she once described her wedding as "held in a romantic Scottish castle with bagpipes and a spectacular fireworks show".
Miss Millard was an art correspondent for the BBC from 1994 to 2004. In addition to her role as Chair of 'Children in Need', the University of Hull-based London woman holds numerous other titles, including President of the First Live Gallery in Essex and Vice-President of the Northern Opera House, where she was previously CEO of the charity Children and the Arts, Art Editor of The New Statesman and President of Hull Culture City in 2017. In 2018, she was awarded the Order of the British Empire for her contribution to the city of Hull's artistic career.
In August 2018, Miss Millard, who is passionate about marathon sports, underwent 6-hour surgery to remove an apple-sized tumor from the front of her brain. She declined to comment on her marital affair last night.
