Jenkins confirmed the couple had split in November 2006, so that she could concentrate on her career.She is currently dating Welsh television presenter Gethin Jones.Jenkins has commented "Yes, it's pretty serious, but honestly I don't want to go into it very much. I like to keep my private life private and I don't want people to think that I'm trying to exploit the relationship. We are together because we like each other and not because we want any publicity from it."
