Separation: Samia Smith and her husband Matthew have separated after five years of marriage
Coronation Street star Samia Smith and her husband Matthew have separated after five years of marriage.
The couple said no one else was involved in the split, which comes little over a year since the birth of their daughter.
The actress, who plays hairdresser Maria Connor in the soap, tied the knot with the property developer in September 2005.
Smith gave birth to daughter, Freya, in October 2009.
The couple said today the decision to separate was mutual and they appealed for privacy.
A statement issued on their behalf read: 'Coronation Street actress Samia Smith and her husband Matthew have today announced that they have decided to separate after five years of marriage.
Family: Samia with daughter Freya early last year
'This is a mutual decision and there is no one else involved. Samia and Matthew ask that their privacy be respected at this time for the sake of their daughter Freya.'
In an interview last summer, Samia referred to Matthew as her 'best friend', adding: 'I can talk to him about anything. He’s been my best friend ever since I met him.'
Samia also reminisced about the most romantic thing Matthew had done for her.
She said: 'The whole way through my pregnancy I was craving boiled egg and soldiers but you can’t eat runny eggs when you’re expecting.
'My first morning at home after the birth, Matt brought me breakfast in bed - boiled egg and soldiers. I just started crying. It was so romantic that he’d remembered I wanted some.'
Actress Smith, 28, first joined the Weatherfield soap in 2000 under the name Samia Ghadie.
Viewers have seen her character Maria caught up in an armed siege, masterminded by evil ex-lover Tony Gordon in recent months.
