"The day I posted that engagement photo is the day I found out he had been cheating on me and one of the women he was cheating on me with actually followed me and that's how I found out.
"She's a lovely woman, and she didn't know, and you've got to love his taste in women.
"You've got to laugh. We're laughing and crying a lot over here."
She continued: "The main thing people say with cheating is 'did you know' and obviously not because I said yes to marrying him... If someone wants to actively deceive you they will.
"When it comes to life coaches there's this illusion that we're perfect, that's not true, I've always said we are five steps ahead and that's how we are able to teach people."
The tears began to flow as Michelle went on: "My own life coach says we never waste a crisis, and this is a crisis.
"I think I am a good life coach because I f*** up more than you."
Sobbing, she said: "I'll rephrase that I didn't f**k up he did. He f****d up a really good thing."
Michelle was flooded with support by fans and former Loose Women presenter Andrea McLean penned: "Oh Michelle… I’m sorry to hear this."
Honey Ross, body confidence model and Jonathan Ross' daughter said: "I love you."
Michelle had been single for eight years when she met her other half in 2021.
She recalled their first date in a sweet video on Istagram back in November.
She posted a picture of the couple swimming together, and added in the video: "This just came up as a memory on TikTok and it was too cute not to share.
"For years, I had a faulty picker when it came to the men in my life so I took this slow, careful and purposely didn’t project a future together and focused on living in the moment.
"This year I also wrote a book about him, just joking it's not about him its about the eight years I was single.
"How I learned to date without feeling bad about myself. The last chapter was about him.
"When you're single you think being in a relationhip is going to change your life but it's just not the case. Life is about peaks and troughs.
"He's a bright spark in the trough, and it's nice to have someone to tell the details to in your life."
