After more than 16 years together, Lisa Bonet and Jason Momoa first separated in January 2022. The couple have two children together and divorced after four years of marriage. Lisa shared that Jason was moving in a different direction that was not compatible with her lifestyle.
Drifting apart and in pursuit of different things, this separation was a friendly one. The two still care deeply for each other and are working in tandem to care for their children. Facing a new era of uncertainty, the couple is learning how to navigate life apart. Honestly, that’s a tough thing to do after 16 years of being each others’ everything.
Jenna Dewan and Channing Tatum
After 13 years together, just like that, Channing and Jenna were over. After meeting on the set of Step Up in 2006, the couple was married in 2009. With one child together and a divorce filed in 2018, these two are navigating the ins and outs of seeking out love with other people while also collaborating on parenting.
Only recently, the exes have felt more capable of sharing why they split, and it’s actually tough to hear. The couple didn’t want their relationship to end; in fact, they fought for it for a long time. At some point, however, they just looked at each other and realized that it wasn’t working anymore.
Tobey Maguire and Jennifer Meyer
After being together for 17 years, getting married, and having two children together, Jennifer filed for divorce in 2020, finalizing their relationship together. Since their breakup, the couple has shared that it was actually a palate-cleansing, beautiful experience to have a seamless breakup.
The couple did a lot of work within their family in order to fight to stay together, but in the end, it just wasn’t a match that the universe had in mind. The ex-couple still have loads of care for each other but found that marriage wasn’t the right relationship for them.
Anthony and Alvina Anderson
This couple was married for 23 years and had two children together before deciding to divorce in 2022 for good. The couple has actually filed for divorce twice, but the second divorce was the one that took the cake.
Due to “irreconcilable differences,” this high school sweetheart marriage ended on not-the-greatest terms, as Anthony shared publicly that his wife was not the fondest of him. While some long loves last, this long love, unfortunately, didn’t fit into that category.
Breakups are hard, and heartbreak is harder.
