Cheng married her husband, Mike Sayre, back in 2010 and they had their son, Dashiel, in March 2013. 

She said on her post that they've been together for 17 years. 

"We both took a long time to come to this decision, and it's not an easy one to make. This may not be the fairytale ending that everyone wishes for, but 17 years is a long time and we had a good run with loads of love, happiness and memories formed together." 

She added that she and Sayre will now focus on co-parenting their son. 

The duo met online and dated for more than three years before tying the knot.

Ending her post, Cheng wished Sayre, 41, all the best, and apologised to her followers that "this love story has come to an end". 

She also requested to be given privacy following the announcement.
