\u2013 her client from season 1 \u2013 who is getting re-married to a wealthy boxer and needs Hannah\u2019s help going over her pre-nup. She tells her not to be afraid of change and to embrace life despite being heartbroken over Nathan.<\/p>\n<p>She\u2019s then visited by Nathan, who thinks he might be having a heart attack but Hannah reassures him it\u2019s a panic attack, caused by Kate discovering Nathan and Hannah sharing a bed in a camper van outside their house.<\/p>\n<p>He explains that while he told Kate that they didn\u2019t sleep together, he did reveal that he still has feelings for Hannah and worries that the divorce may be a mistake. While Hannah initially thought the same, she tells him that he\u2019s just frightened and has confused that with thinking he still loves her. \u201cWe can\u2019t fix this Nathan,\u201d she says before walking away.<\/p>\n<p>Nathan then goes to visit his divorce lawyer Melanie Aickman (Anna Chancellor) and after she spends the first few minutes speaking about how reuniting with the son she gave up for adoption has done wonders for her public profile, he tells her she\u2019s a terrible person and fires her. \u201cYou\u2019ve never asked me what I want. You just tell people what they\u2019re going to get at whatever cost,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Nina goes to an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting and thinks she sees Tyler (Damien Molony), who stole her life-savings and fled, but it\u2019s actually somebody else. As she\u2019s leaving, she bumps into Melanie, who reveals she\u2019s an AA regular and tells Nina that she\u2019ll need to put in the work to make amends for the self-destructive mistakes she\u2019s made.<\/p>\n<p>After hearing that Nathan has fired Melanie, Hannah visits Kate. She tells her that her marriage with Nathan is definitely over and because she loves him, she\u2019s ready to let Kate and the new baby into their family life.<\/p> <p>As for Lenny, she visits her husband Felix and tells him about her terminal condition. However he says that\u2019s he won\u2019t allow her to divorce him for that reason and that he wants to care for her until the very end.<\/p>\n<p>Some time later, Nathan heads over to Hannah\u2019s house and they finalise their divorce arrangements before tearfully but amicably ending their marriage. Their children then arrive back at the house and Liv tells Hannah that she\u2019s not going to study law at university, but instead is going to study Spanish in Argentina with Gael (Alex Guersman), who she\u2019s decided not to marry after all. Kate then stops by and reconciles with Nathan before appearing to get on well with their children.<\/p>\n<p>Back at the office, Nina goes to see Zander, who tells her that she won\u2019t be punishing her for stealing his husband as she has quite a lot of money to make back after Tyler ran off with her savings. Meanwhile, Rose (Fiona Button) visits the man who received James\u2019s heart before laying flowers <a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/drama\/the-split-season-3-james-death-newsupdate\/&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot;\">in the spot where he died<\/a>. She also bumps into Glen (Kobna Holdbrook-Smith) whilst visiting James\u2019s grave, with the vicar apologising for brushing her off a few days before and implying that he has feelings for her.<\/p>\n<p>Whilst still at the office, Hannah calls Christie (Barry Atsma), who had invited Hannah to be with him in New York, and tells him that as her family is in London, that\u2019s where she must be. \u201cI love you Christie, I do, but I want life not a fantasy,\u201d she says before telling him that if he wants to be with her, he needs to move back to the UK.<\/p>\n<p>Later on, Ruth (Deborah Findlay) and Ronnie (Ian McElhinney) tie the knot and the Defoe family dance together at the wedding reception, before Hannah and Nathan record an episode of Ruth\u2019s podcast together, talking about their divorce.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Do Hannah and Nathan get back together?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div class=\"&quot;image-handler__container\" image-handler__container--aspect=\"\"
