Jodie Sweetin is grateful for her fans.

The Full House star spoke out for the first time since filing for legal separation from her third husband Morty Coyle, 15 months after tying the knot, where she cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split.

"Thank you to everyone for being kind and supportive... I really appreciate all the fan love. Life can have its challenges, for sure!" she tweeted.

Sweetin also responded to Perez Hilton, who told the star, "Sending you good vibes!" by saying, ":) thank you... It's never easy!"

According to the court documents filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, the former child star put June 12 as their date of separation.

Per her court filing, Sweetin is asking for primary physical and legal custody of their 2-year-old daughter Beatrix Carlin Sweetin-Coyle, with visitation rights for Coyle on alternate weekends.
