Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver are separating after 25 YEARS of marriage.
From the Los Angeles Times:
Former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and his wife, Maria Shriver, have separated, with Shriver moving out of their Brentwood mansion while the two determine the next step in their 25-year marriage.
Shriver has been residing apart from the actor-turned-politician for the last few weeks. The former first couple confirmed the separation in a joint statement released Monday after questions from The Times.
"This has been a time of great personal and professional transition for each of us," the statement read. "After a great deal of thought, reflection, discussion and prayer, we came to this decision together. At this time, we are living apart while we work on the future of our relationship.
"We are continuing to parent our four children together. They are the light and the center of both of our lives. We consider this a private matter and neither we nor any of our friends or family will have further comment. We ask for compassion and respect from the media and the public."
After so many years together, it's sad that they've reached a point where they're deciding to walk away.
MSNBC is pushing the angle that their split has to do with political differences, "divided political families."
That's a leap.
I don't think it would take 25 years to realize you can't tolerate your spouse's political views and want to dissolve your relationship because of those differences.
If a marriage is based mainly on shared politics, that would be a very empty union.
