Parents and children experiencing shorter family court hearings following a government review is "encouraging", a minister has said.

The couple had filed for divorce in May 2000, according to family court records from the Vista courthouse.

In July-September last year, some 13,103 new child arrangement cases, where no safeguarding concerns were raised, began at family courts in England and Wales.

Ms Murray voluntarily gave up custody after being told by her legal team she stood no chance of winning in family court.

It is extremely rare for a parent in a family court case about children to be publicly identified but the family court judge said it was in the public interest in naming Mr Albon.
