Simone has been separated from her husband for five years, and divorced for three - but says she still loves him, and that a part of her will always love him.
 
They have 'two beautiful children.'
 
Simone says she doesn't feel as though the relationship is over, but when asked at the beginning of the year, her ex husband said there was no chance of a reconciliation.
 
They separated suddenly five years ago, after Simone's then husband found the body of his best mate, who'd committed suicide. He didn't undergo any counselling, and Simone says he had an affair with a woman at his work. Six weeks into the affair, he told Simone about it. After that, they separated, and later down the track, divorced. They had been married for almost eleven years at the time.
 
He's not in a relationship anymore - every couple of months they have a "D&M" over the phone.
 
Simone thinks he may be reluctant to get together again because he feels guilty about the affair. She doesn't want to chase him, but she doesn't know whether to patiently wait for him to come back, or move on.
