Her acknowledgement of the couple's relationship status follows months of speculation that the pair had called time on their 19-year marriage.
In an interview with The Telegraph's Stella magazine, 42-year-old Louise explained: "I feel I'm coming back to who I really am. I have spent most of my life pleasing everyone else, worrying about being judged and thinking I should always do the right thing by staying at home looking after my kids and my husband.
"I lost myself. I think this happens to a lot of women when they get married and have children. You have this feeling deep inside you, 'Where did I go?', but I pushed those thoughts away.
"I'd think of my past life as a pop star as being 'not reality'. Looking after the house and my family was my reality. I became a sort-of Stepford Wife, wanting to be perfect at it."
Despite now living apart, the singer added: "It's so hard because I love him. He's an amazing man and we've had 20 good years together. I know he's trying to understand that I need to do this.
"People might look at me and think I've got everything, but a sweeping staircase and designer handbag doesn't really do it for me."
"Being fulfilled, being true to yourself, following your passion," is what makes a person happy, she added. "I have no idea what is going to happen, all I know is that I fought for this, it's taken everything, but this is something I need to do – for me."
Louise and husband Jamie have been married for 19 years. They have two sons together.
