Susie Maroney splits with quadriplegic husband Perry Cross after six months of marriage

Susie Maroney and her quadriplegic husband, Perry Cross, are reportedly separating.

According to The Sunday Telegraph, the marathon swimmer and former rugby union player have called time on their marriage, less than a year after saying ‘I Do’ in an intimate Byron Bay resort wedding last November.

However, Susie has stayed mum on the reports.

“Perry’s a wonderful inspiration as everyone knows and a beautiful man, but I really don’t want to say anything more at this stage,” she told the publication.

On Sunday, the 43-year-old blonde shared a photo of herself on Instagram with the text “Good Vibes Only”. But she’s deleted all previous images from her account, including numerous photos with Perry.

Meanwhile Perry, who used to regularly share images of the pair together on his Instagram, appears to have deleted all snaps of the couple from his account.

Just a few months ago, Susie and her hubby spoke about their attempts to have a child together.

While Susie has three children from two previous marriages -- nine-year-old Paris, seven-year-old Capri, and five-year-old River – she and Perry were trying for another at one time.

In a candid interview with the Gold Coast Bulletin in December, the couple revealed they had attempted IVF earlier in 2016, before getting married.

Perry, who became wheelchair bound following a bad rugby tackle in 1994, noted they were still trying but only had one egg left.

In the same interview, Susie, who was diagnosed with a malignant melanoma during her IVF treatment in 2016, hinted at the toll it was taking on her health.

“IVF is draining though, both emotionally and financially, and at my age I’m thinking one more time,” she said. “It would be nice to have our own baby but we’re also grateful for the three we have.”

Susie, who has a number of open water swimming records to her name, first met the 42-year-old at the Perry Cross Spinal Research Foundation fundraiser in 2014.

She has previously admitted to “chasing” Perry after seeing him on stage, and they fell for each other pretty fast.
