ββ¦just two best-friends realizing itβs time to take some space,β the couple, both 37, said in the statement.
Read the statement below:
Hey world! Soβ¦
We have something we would like to share.
First off, it feels odd that we have to share this kind of thing with everyone, but itβs a consequence of the lives weβve chosen to lead, which we also happen to be deeply grateful for. Weβre living in an incredible moment in time, but itβs also a time where truth can easily get distorted into βalternative facts.β π So we want to share the truth so you know that if you didnβt read it here then itβs most certainly fiction.
We have lovingly chosen to separate as a couple. We fell deeply in love so many years ago and have had a magical journey together. Absolutely nothing has changed about how much we love one another, but love is a beautiful adventure that is taking us on different paths for now. There are no secrets nor salacious events at the root of our decision β just two best-friends realizing itβs time to take some space and help each other live the most joyous, fulfilled lives as possible. We are still a family and will always be loving dedicated parents to Everly. We wonβt be commenting beyond this, and we thank you all in advance for respecting our familyβs privacy. Sending lots of love to everyone, Chan&Jenna.
