The pair were at loggerheads for months over his demands for a £1 MILLION payoff after mum-of-two Kym, 33, admitted adultery.
A source said: "Jack made it clear he wanted a substantial settlement and Kym was furious about it.
"She felt he was intent on squeezing every last penny from her."
But according to a pal, they agreed a settlement on Friday with Jack, 27, getting an undisclosed payment. The couple split in 2008 after six years. The relationship soured after Jack gave up his lucrative Enders job then struggled to get roles. But ex-Hear'Say star Kym's career took off and she now has a £100,000 deal with Corrie.
She started dating former Hollyoaks star Jamie Lomas after her split from Jack.

Jack has got what he deserved, His wife filled his head with ideas that he could cut it in hollywood, Maybe she had a plan behind it funny how kym got a part in corrie and jack disappeared and ended up playing daddy day care to her two kids.

i dont know the ins and out of their relationship but he has only claimed what he is entitled to no one bats a eyelid when women who do nothing but suck off their husbands then divorce and and walk away with large sums of money its his right to claim.

He is getting a payoff that he is entitled to. His career nosdived when he started believing his own hype. Hollywood was never going to happen in a million years. Whoever was telling him this (his ex?) was living in cloud cuckoo land. Time to faded away with your pot of gold Jack..

Good to see a guy actually claiming money from his wealthy wife, usually its the men getting rinsed out out of every penny by the trophy wives. Also she admitted cheating on him so good on the guy, hit her where it hurts, especially in these tough times.

As far as I can remember wasnt she behind him leaving Eastenders thinking he could pursue roles in Hollywood? I am sure that I read years ago that she thought he was so talented and shoudl be getting better jobs?
Aside from that it is years since I have seen her as I live in Australia, she looks great!!!
