Model and TV personality Kim Sae Rom and celebrity chef Lee Chan Oh have split. The duo are planning to part ways ending a year and four months of marriage.

Sae Rom's spokesperson confirmed the divorce news. The statement read: "The two recently filed their divorce papers. They decided to end their marriage and start the steps for a divorce by consent. After separating for a while, they eventually decided to divorce. They weren't able to overcome personality differences and came to this decision. We can't tell you details as it's personal."

This comes after in May, Chan Ho was accused of cheating on Sae Rom. Rumours that he deceived his wife started after a video of him cozying up with another woman made rounds on the web.

However, Chan Oh denied the claims. The official note read: "The video is from an after party of a festival [2016 Jeju Food and Wine Festival]. They are captured while hanging out with friends. The beginning and end are edited out, which is creating the misunderstanding. However, it is not an affair. The woman in the clip is just a friend. It is true that he acted without caution, but it is not true that there are conflicts in his marriage with Kim Sae Rom. The two are happily together."

Sae Rom's label also stated that the supermodel is aware of the truth. The spokesperson affirmed: "Kim Sae Rom is aware of the recent video of chef Lee Chan Ho, and she also knows that the rumors are not true. The woman in the clip is Lee Chan Ho's long known friend, and Kim Sae Rom also knows her. Kim Sae Rom did not show much reaction to the situation. She only stated that she was aware of it."
