"Obviously it's a relief to get the [decree] nisi but it won't be over properly until the summer," she told the Daily Mail's Richard Kay. "We have as good a relationship as you can expect after everything that's happened," she continued, referencing Aldridge's infidelity.
The pair wed in London in 1997, and McMenamy was famously walked down the aisle by designer Karl Lagerfeld. They have two children together, as well as each having a child from a previous relationship. Lily McMenamy, Kristen's 18-year-old daughter from prior to her marriage, has recently begun a successful modelling career of her own.

46-year-old Kristen has been in a relationship with art dealer Ivor Braka for three months after meeting at a mutual friend's dinner party. "I was feeling a bit low and nearly missed my friend's dinner party. But I thought 'just get up off the sofa and go'. I sent my pal a cheeky message saying: 'Seat me next to an eligible bachelor.' It turned out to be Ivor." The pair reportedly plan to marry.
