MailOnline has contacted representatives for both David and Lara but has not yet received a reply.
According to The Sun, Lara took Alfred and the couple’s dog Bert with them when she left their North London home.
A source close to the comedian said: ‘David has been putting on a brave face. But people close to him are very worried because they know he’s devastated.
News of their split has come as a huge surprise to friends despite the fact they have barely been seen together over the past six months.
The insider told The Sun newspaper that his friends are shocked by the split as they thought the marriage was strong.
But Little Britain star David hopes they can get their relationship back on track.
The source said: ‘David hopes it is a blip and that they can get the marriage back on track somehow, especially seeing as there is a child involved.’

This alleged split almost five years after they tied the knot.
David and Lara began dating in September 2024 before marrying at London’s exclusive Claridge’s Hotel in May 2024.
They welcomed Alfred in May 2024 with David announcing Lara’s pregnancy on his Twitter page.
He wrote: ‘Some wonderful news. My beautiful wife Lara is pregnant. We are having a baby! It is due next year and we both couldn’t be happier. Dx.’
The news comes after it was recently claimed that the blonde beauty had declined Justin Bieber’s request to go on a date while shooting their most recent ad campaign for Calvin Klein.
A source previously said: ‘While they were doing the whole Calvin Klein ad, Justin was very forward and asked Lara on a date. He made it look like a joke at first, but then tried to put in the charm.
‘It didn’t work though as she respectfully declined since she is married. Surprisingly, it didn’t get awkward and the shoot went on with out incident.’
