Cape Town - Former Miss South Africa Claudia Henkel revealed to Huisgenoot that she and her husband, businessman Orin Roesstorff have separated after tying the knot in 2015.
According to the Afrikaans lifestyle publication the couple, who have 15-month-old twins together, have been separated for two months.
It is reported that the former Group PR Manager at Sun International has moved out of the couple's shared home in Johannesburg and is currently living with her parents in Pretoria.
Claudia, who has devoted her time to raising her two young children since leaving Sun International, wrote on Instagram and Facebook about the challenges of being a full-time mother on Thursday.
"For the past 2 months I have been 24/7 mom to twins and let me tell you it's one of the hardest things I've ever done, watching their every move, so they don't fall, feeding, preparing food, washing clothes, changing nappies, bathing, following a sleep routine etc..it's bloody hard work," she wrote.

Two weeks ago, the 36-year-old model shared a cryptic post on Facebook, alluding to heartbreak, saying: "She sat quietly as she watched things around her unravel, how so many promises that were made were broken, how if she knew how it would turn out, would she choose the same path? and yet the answers were yes because life is not about regret it's about lessons and learning, and using the past to confront the future in the right way."
