Australia’s fittest couple have called time on their relationship after more than one year together.
Michelle and fellow trainer Steve “commando” Willis’ fiery fling is now over with the pair parting ways due to the “publicity powerhouse” Michelle has turned into.
“He’s over all that branding – her work commitments and public appearances,” reveals a source.
“It’s all she talks about, all she wants to do. He made a big decision leaving his family home and kids for her and it’s one he’s regretting now.”
Commando has since packed up and moved out of Michelle’s lavish Sydney apartment and has moved in with a friend close by, so can he be on hand for their business commitments.
Michellle’s new muscle man? Michelle has been seeking solace with sporty Craig Hall. “We spend a lot of time together. I consider him a very special part of my life,” she says.
But even that relationship is under strain, with his new 13 week body challenge, Get Commando Fit, being in direct competition with Michelle’s 12-week Body Transformation challenge.
“It’s certainly caused a strain because Michelle is so ambitious,” our insider tells.
“Apart from the industry, they don’t really have a lot in common and with the honeymoon period well and truly over, Steve is really missing his kids and the quiet suburban lifestyle he had before Michelle.
“He wants to work it out with her but he wants that old lifestyle back and Michelle is not interested in that stay-at-home role.”
The pair slowly phased out flaunting their relationship and it was the first sign that things were over between the pair.
“Steve hasn’t even added a photo of Michelle since the Logies, which was almost five months ago,” notes the source.
“Of course they want to work it out but it’s only a matter of time before they announce the split.”
Commando has also made a huge effort recently to spend more time with children Brianna, 15, Ella, 6, and Jack, 2, and is often spotted with their mother, former partner Froso.
