Brisbane Broncos coach Wayne Bennett has released a statement to announce he has split from his long-term wife Trish.

"As an NRL head coach and thereby a public figure I today inform you about a personal matter and the fact I have separated from my wife and the family home some time ago," Bennett said on Saturday morning.

"I will continue to appear publicly in my role at the Brisbane Broncos but at the same time ask that you respect my personal privacy and that of my family."

Bennett guided the Broncos to the NRL finals, but were eliminated in heartbreaking fashion on Friday night by the North Queensland Cowboys.

That's sad.

He has a Down syndrome son who needs constant care. Must be tough on them all.

Was funny watching them on Australian Story a few years back & his young bloke wearing the jersey of his upcoming opponent- did it every week.

This will shock some and not others.
Not what you would expect from someone at the top of the tree.
For the record, there are two individuals involved with separate 'issues' of a personal nature.
Ones a player and ones not.
This too cryptic even for me! I'm very interested to know what's going on.

That being said marriage can be very difficult for parents of special needs children, press might want to tread carefully.

When we make the grand final, I'll be coming to Sydney to stay for a couple of days...a week if we win!

I'll be hitting BBB up for a pizza, something to soak up the grog!
