The couple share a son, William, and daughter, Beatrice.
But Gove and his partner have decided to part ways
Friends said the pair had drifted apart and there was no one else involved in the split.
A spokesperson for the couple said this evening: “Michael and Sarah have agreed to separate and they are in the process of finalising their divorce. They will continue to support their two children and they remain close friends. The family politely ask for privacy at this time and will not be providing any further comment.
