“This decision came after a lot of thought and care,” Leah and Angelo wrote in a joint statement on Instagram Aug. 29, “And as hard as divorce is, we are approaching this with a positive outlook because we know it’s what’s best for us.”
As for what led to their difficult decision, the two, who have been together for more than two decades, explained, “To put it simply, we both changed, as people do, and we got used to playing roles that didn’t fit us anymore. After a lot of effort and consideration, we’ve decided to take this step, which reflects who we are today.”
The co-parents noted that they plan to spend future holidays together and get together as a family amidst their split.
“Our bond is still strong—it’s just evolved into something different,” they continued. “We think a marriage that lasted this long and created so many beautiful memories, especially raising our incredible daughter, is something to celebrate.”
