'Sadly at the time, I thought Kym would never leave Jamie so I decided it was time to get out,' he told the Daily Mirror.'Oliver said he was unsure whether their clandestine relationship was the cause of Kym's divorce or just the catalyst due to existing problems. But he added '...I'm glad Kym split from Jamie. He didn't make her happy.'
Mellor says that he thought that he and Marsh were in love, but when the actor eventually called time on the relationship, he claims Kym was upset that it was coming to an end, but also sad about being caught between her love for Oliver, and the love for her family.

Mellor insists the
chemistry between them was ‘too strong to ignore’ after they shared
scenes on Coronation Street in 2013.
‘We loved each other and we weren’t afraid to say it,’ he told Gemma Aldridge of the Sunday Mirror. ‘It wasn’t something we intended to happen, but we couldn’t stop our feelings.'
The 32-year-old made his first appearance on the long-running soap as Dr. Matt Carter in 2010, but it would be a further three years before he shared a scene with show regular Kym.

Hunky Oliver claims the actress gave his bum a playful pinch when the cameras stopped rolling – and told him he had ‘a great body.’
While Kym was married to EastEnders star Jamie Lomas, Oliver was engaged in a relationship of his own with PR executive Charlotte Bury – but he admits his feelings for Kym were becoming impossible to ignore.
He claims they kissed for the first time during a night out with their Corrie co-stars last Valentine’s Day.
