"We recently made the difficult decision to divorce, but we remain close and are deeply grateful for the life we've shared and the wonderful daughter we've raised."

They added that they were "totally crying" as they posted the announcement, which was met with support and love from friends like Constance Zimmer

Stella Gregg, you didn't get the senior spring you deserved, but you worked so hard and (almost) never complained about the zoom classes and zoom senior day," he wrote alongside a photo. "You are deep and wise and hilarious and the world will be better off in your hands. I love you."
