It’s been more than a month since The Wiggles couple Emma Watkins and Lachlan Gillespie announced their split, and honestly we’re still not okay.
Now Yellow Wiggle Emma has revealed it was her decision to break up with Purple Wiggle Lachy after two years of marriage.
Emma, 28, told The Daily Telegraph she asked for the separation during a time where she was dealing with many health issues – she underwent surgery for endometriosis, had serious anaemia, a blood transfusion and a leukaemia scare.
Emma said it had been “a weird time” for them both.
“I think we just realised that we were meant to be best friends. I wanted to make the decision to separate … I am very independent.”
She said they had fallen out of love and realised they weren’t the right fit anymore.
“We are not really cranky at each other, we just realised that our situation had changed – probably more from me, than from him,” Emma told The Daily Telegraph.
They continue to see each other every day and Emma said she has always been able to rely on 32-year-old Lachy.

I knew it had to be her idea. You can tell in all their photos out of costume that Lachy was absolutely besotted with Emma.
Well that is her prerogative. How many men are the leavers, stacks.
No one knows what goes on behind the scenes!
These two keep trying to explain and justify their break up- to us, to themselves...
