Nova star Tim Blackwell's wife Monique appears tense as she is seen for the first time since the couple's split was confirmed

Monique Blackwell was seen for the first time since she and her husband, radio personality Tim Blackwell, announced that their couple had separated after 14 years of marriage.

As Monique left her Inner West Sydney home, she appeared a little tense as she got into her car.

She skipped makeup to run her errands and wore a loose bohemian-style summer dress and Greek sandals.

Monique seemed completely lost in herself and appeared distracted as she left her home while holding her phone.

Monique posted on Instagram on Sunday to break the sad news to friends and fans of the couple.

“Not all good things end, but this does,” her caption began alongside a few photos of herself and Tim, 42, in happier times.

“Thank you in advance for your messages of love, support and sadness over the news that Tim and I are no longer together,” she added.

“Our babes will forever be supported by Tim’s and my love for them.”

The entrepreneur and yoga teacher concluded: “And our shared friendship is always a source of strength for our family as we raise our children as best friends.”

The couple have three children together: Bo (10), Alfie (seven) and Artie (four).

They met on the biggest day of Tim's career.

Speaking to the Daily Telegraph's Stellar magazine in 2018, the radio host revealed the couple met in 2002 after he moved to the city to launch Nova 93.7's local drive show.

“It's the cheesiest radio nerd story ever – one of the biggest days of my career and certainly the biggest day of my love life,” he said.

“I had all the big bosses in town, all the news media there. I was shaking and sh*tting but excited at the same time.

“When it was all over, we went down and had this huge launch party, and Monique was part of the promotions team there at the time. She came over and I had the courage to say, “I’m new in Perth and would like to take you out for a coffee or something.”
