If you read some OldMan47's pinned topics, he recommends leaving them together, feeding them well, and they won't predate on the fry.

Its up to you. I keep the females in with the males, and only remove fry.
Some move them because some females can get stress, and just absorb the unborn babies.

Hi I have attached a video of my Female Platy, she share's the tank with 3 small Cory's and a Albino BN -
I have taken the male out of the tank, as he was chasing her all the time and she became very nervous and hid behind the Bog wood.
Can anyone advise me when she is due to drop.
