Marcel Somerville, 39, tied the knot with now ex-wife Rebecca Vieira back in 2022.

Things were going well until January 2024 when Rebecca was caught being 'unfaithful' to the reality TV star with rapper Slim Jxmmi.

The pair's messy split made headlines - just before his All Stars appearance last year.

Speaking on the Winners Talking podcast, Marcel recalled a pal asking if he could talk to him.

 

Marcel said: "Little did I know, the man's coming to be like, 'Yo Mars, someone's sent me this through to the Blazin' Squad Instagram.

"They've been trying to get through to your Instagram, but for some reason they can't get through to your thing."

He added: "I'm scrolling through like, 'What is this?' I saw a picture of my ex on my bed.

"I was reading the messages, like, 'this is crazy'".

The former couple share a son, Roman, who they welcomed back in 2021.

Marcel said he called his mum to look after Roman while he and Rebecca spoke.

Slim Jxmmi and his brother Swae Lee comprise hip hop duo Rae Sremmurd.

Meanwhile, the 33-year-old star's real name is Aaquil Iben Shaman Brown.

The mother of Slim's child, KD, had claimed that Rebecca had sent "intimate messages" to her child’s father.

KD, took to her social media platforms to share what she had uncovered – even tagging Rebecca and Marcel in the posts for them to see.

A source at the time, told The Mirror: "Marcel is absolutely devastated.

"Rebecca was his life and he’d changed so many things about his lifestyle to make her happy.

"Everything he did, everything he worked for was for his wife and his son.

"The poor guy feels like he’s in a nightmare and he keeps hoping he’ll wake up.”
