Debt advice after break up

Hi, I have been paying off an £18,000 loan that I took out to pay my now ex's debts and consolodate my £3000 debts.

When we split up (6 yrs ago) I stupidly just accepted it and struggled to pay, ending up on a DMP with CCCS.

When I took the loan out I was told I had to have PPI and they also took his earnings into account.

Even though I have defaulted on the payments, is there any way out??

My other debts that I included on my DMP amount to just £2000 which is far more manageable.

Advice would be amazing
