A judge has drawn the marriage of TV star Jeremy Kyle to a close.
Judge Stephen Alderson granted Kyle and wife Carla a decree nisi at the Central Family Court in London on Thursday.
Neither were at the hearing, which lasted about 20 seconds.
A lawyer representing Mrs Kyle said she had petitioned for divorce on the grounds of unreasonable behaviour.
Solicitor Raymond Tooth, a senior partner at law firm Sears Tooth, said Mrs Kyle did not wish to comment.
The marriage will formally end when a judge grants a decree absolute.
Mrs Kyle can apply for a decree absolute in about six weeks.
