Hollyoaks’ Chelsee Healey tells all on her split with baby Coco’s father as she celebrates Mother’s Day as a single mum
The couple split not long after she gave birth to Coco last summer after a difficult few years, which saw Jack Malloy serve time
CHELSEE Healey has revealed she is still friends with the father of her baby.
The Hollyoaks actress split from Jack Malloy for good not long after giving birth to Coco in July 2017, after an on/off relationship.
But the 29-year-old has remained close to him for the sake of their little one, who sees him every other weekend.
She told the “It’s no secret that I’m single but Jack will always be there for Coco. We’ve not been together for a while and she goes to London every other weekend to be with her dad. We’re still friends, it’s all amicable.”
Chelsee and Jack split back in the summer of 2016, just days before she started her new job on Hollyoaks.
The pair first started dating in 2014, but the relationship was plagued by trouble after he was jailed for 12 months in 2016.
The Sun revealed how Jack, 28, admitted dangerous driving, using a vehicle without insurance and driving while disqualified. He’d previously been given a suspended sentence for producing cannabis.
They reconciled and Chelsee fell pregnant with their first child, but the reunion was short lived and Chelsee is now gearing up for her first Mother’s Day as a single mum.
She said: “All I want to do is be the best mum that I can be to Coco. Since having her my priorities have completely changed and of course you want to set the best example that you can.

"She was a surprise baby but I was definitely ready for motherhood. When it happened it just felt right. I’d got my partying days out of my system and everything I do now is about her, it’s not about me.
"I’m really excited about Mother’s Day. Coco is nearly eight months old, and I know she doesn’t realise what it all means but I’ve planned a special day out with my mum, sister and niece which will be a lovely way to celebrate.”
