The Celebrity Big Brother star broke the news this afternoon via her official Twitter account.
Chantelle tweeted: "Unfortunately I have had no option but to end my relationship with Alex."
The couple were reported to have been at breaking point this week after Alex was arrested on suspicion of breaking into the couple's home in Essex.
Two days after the arrest however, Alex was seen returning to the couple's home.

She told the magazine: "Alex needs to change how he treats me. It's been strained so we don't spend a lot of time together."
Cleary Alex wasn't willing to change for the sake of their relationship.
Chantelle gave birth to the couple's daughter Dolly just last June.
Alex has yet to make a comment on the split.
