The Conservative MP for The Wrekin said today that he and his wife Sondra had been separated since April.
"I can confirm that I am in the advanced stages of a divorce and have been separated since April," he said.
"This is a private matter and a sad time. There are no other parties involved."
Mr Pritchard, who has been Wrekin MP since 2005, added: "The life of an MP takes its toll. It requires 100 per cent commitment to public service – and sadly that has its price.
"However, I remain committed to serving the varied and many needs of my constituents."
