Anna Nightingale has sparked a split mystery after unfollowing her partner of 13 years on Instagram. 

The former Emmerdale star, 34, who played Andrea Tate, got engaged to Daren Dixon in 2021 and the pair share two children together, Autumn, eight, and Ava, four.

Anna also appears to have wiped all traces of her fiancé from her profile after declaring 2025 has been the 'hardest year' yet.

The star posted an AI-generated photo of herself hugging her child self as she penned a lengthy rant about the struggles she has faced this year.

She wrote: '2025… you’re a d***head! And not even a quiet one — a loud, chaotic, plot-twist-every-five-minutes kind of d***head.

'You tried it! But here I am. Still standing. Still healing. Still me — just a woman carved out of fire and hope.

'I’ve been thinking about the girl I used to be… and the woman this year basically threw into the deep end with bricks in her pockets.

'The hardest year of my life — I won’t sugarcoat it, I won’t pretend otherwise — but somehow, love still climbed in through the window.'

In another cryptic message, Anna responded to a fan and said: 'It’s brutal when the people we trust are the people who hurt us.'

Little is known about the pair's relationship and Daren describes himself as a marketing and AI consultant.

Daily Mail has contacted a representative for Anna Nightingale for comment.

Anna previously revealed she was expecting her youngest daughter Ava  when she was filming her final scenes on Emmerdale.

The actress revealed that she suffered from panic attacks while filming due to her anxieties about balancing work and being a mother.

Her character was recently killed off the show during their super soap week, and has said that when she firsts started she struggled with working 60-hour weeks which led to her not seeing her daughter from Sunday to Friday. 

Anna told The Sun about the time when she forgot her lines in a scene with 20 people in which then led to one of her worst attacks.

'I couldn’t breathe, I didn’t know what I was doing and I couldn’t remember any of my lines. It was like a nightmare because it was so public.

'It’s a different thing when you suffer anxiety when you’re with your family, but this was in front of people I worked with and I cared about their opinions. I just couldn’t recall the script.'
