ARSENAL star Leandro Trossard and his wife have been “separated for some time” as she confirms their split.

Laura Hilven, 33, said the pair have broken up after nearly 13 years in an emotional post shared on her Instagram.

It followed The Sun on Sunday revealing their relationship was in tatters after Laura deleted wedding pictures from her socials.

In addition she had not posted any images wearing her ring since December.

Confirming their split, Laura’s post read: “With deep love, care, and respect for one another, we have made the incredibly difficult decision to separate amicably.

“This was not a choice made lightly. In fact we have been separated for some time now, and during that period we have taken the space and time needed to navigate this privately and thoughtfully.

“Our decision comes from a place of mutual understanding and a shared desire to create the healthiest and happiest future for everyone involved.

“Most importantly, we are and always will be devoted parents to our two beautiful children.

“We kindly ask for compassion, understanding, and privacy during this deeply personal transition.

“With love, Laura.”

The pair have been married since 2019 and would have been a couple for 13 years next month.

The break-up doesn’t appear to have affected Leandro on the pitch, who on Sunday bagged the potential title- winning goal as Arsenal beat West Ham 1-0 in a game filled with drama.

Blonde Laura previously used her Instagram to showcase their happy life — regularly posting loved-up snaps of them together to her 35,000 followers.

Her now-deleted posts include a snap from Leandro’s proposal in June 2018.

At the time a besotted Laura posted a love heart emoji and gushed online: “I can’t picture my life with anyone other than YOU!

“I SAID YES #hefinallypoppedthequestion #sohappytobeengagedtohim #soonwifey #marriedwiththemanofmydreams.”

On a pic from their wedding day, Laura had written: “I have been told many times, how beautiful it is, how deep it goes.

“But only since I know you I know that love really exists.”

A post from their first wedding anniversary in 2020 showing Laura in a white backless and off-the-shoulder gown read: “One year down, forever to go!”

And a post showed the pair kissing on a beach in 2020 saw her write: “My forever home.”

There was also a snap from 2022 of the pair holding each other on a beach, with the caption: “Happy 9 years. #iloveyou.”

Laura also removed a picture of the couple wearing Arsenal shirts on the pitch at the Emirates following the team’s final home game of the season last May.

The image was captioned: “Our hearts are RED. Thank you for all the support this season. #LOVEFROMUS.”

Other deleted posts showed the couple enjoying holidays in Ibiza and other sunkissed locations around the world.

Tennis fan Laura also erased any evidence of Trossard’s presence on a hospitality trip to the Wimbledon championships last year — despite him previously appearing in numerous images she posted from their day at the All England Club.

Laura has not posted a picture of herself wearing her wedding or engagement ring since December 5, when she put up a snap of her and three pals with the caption: “Christmas dinner with my ladies.”

In the most recent Instagram image that shows her left hand, posted on March 2, a gold ring can be seen on her middle finger, but her wedding set is missing.

Laura has been a regular spectator at Arsenal games since Trossard signed for the club from Brighton in 2022.

Laura has shared pictures on Instagram of her watching in the stands along with Bukayo Saka’s girlfriend Tolami Benson and Kai Havertz’s wife Sophia.

She is also pals with comedian Matt Lucas, who is an Arsenal fan.

He attended her 33rd birthday party in October.
