Richard Hammond's wife Mindy kicked him out to sleep in the castle's barn after SHE ended 28-year marriage'- eight years after warning Top Gear star he was on his 'last chance' following second high-speed crash


On Thursday, the Top Gear star, 55, shared that he and his spouse have split after 22 years of marriage, writing in a statement they will 'always be in each other's lives.'

The inventor of Richard Hammond's super car was forced to reveal the secrets of the £2 million prototype to salvage experts before the charred remains could be removed from the crash site. Hammond, who was driving up a hill in the Rimac Concept One electric car when he crashed last month, said previously: 'It was the very last run of the day, at the top just over the finish line it got away from me and I went over the edge.' The couple, who married in 2002, share daughters Isabella, 24, and Willow, 22, and it's thought that newspaper columnist Mindy has asked to keep the £7million Bollitree Castle estate as part of their split settlement.
