Holly and Nick split in June 2025, 13 years after the got married. Their home, Providence House, was bought by Suneil Setiya for around £270m, making it one of the most expensive property sales in the world. Holly and Nick lived at the home with their two children, Luka, 12, and Nova, eight.
In July last year, Holly was reportedly gearing up for a fierce battle over finances following her and Nick’s split.
The pair tied the knot in 2012 in a lavish ceremony costing around £3million. Before their marriage, they signed a pre-nuptial agreement intended to protect their assets. Despite this, those close to Holly reportedly believe there may still be some room for negotiation.
The source told The Sun that it had been a “very painful time for Holly” and she hoped there “could be some room to manoeuvre”. A friend of Nick’s said: “Nick is a very decent guy and he will always do right by Holly and their children.”
In recent years, Nick shifted his political allegiances, resigning from the Tory Party to become treasurer of Reform UK in December 2024. Holly has also become a notable figure in right-wing politics, having visited former US President Donald Trump in 2022 alongside Nick and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage.
Holly has also previously been pictured getting close to far-right activist Tommy Robinson. She was seen on a luxury train along with Robinson, Reclaim Party leader Laurence Fox and his wife In October 2025.
A picture posted online by former actor, Fox, showed the mum-of-two and his wife cuddled up on a sofa in one of the train’s plush carriages. A grinning Robinson sits nearby, as a caption by Fox reads: “It’s a bit early for that…”
Meanwhile, in a video of the trio, Holly sipped a cup of tea, as Robinson said: “Good morning everybody. How are we?” Holly also took a selfie on the trip, with her new pals posing in the background.
The Mail on Sunday reported that friends of actress, famed for playing Flick Scully in Neighbours, were worried that she and Robinson had “grown close”.
Real name, Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, Robinson has convictions for assault, mortgage fraud, using a false passport and multiple counts of contempt of court.
A source told the Mail, “Plenty of her friends are worried. The question is whether they [Ms Valance and Robinson] are romantically involved. Even if they are not having a romantic relationship, there is the fact that he has all of these convictions against him.”
