We all have those celebrity couples that everyone looks up to and wants to be like. Then, out of nowhere, they either divorce or separate. Here are some couples we loved but sadly separated in some way.

 Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Jackman were married for 24 years before separating. They said in a statement to People that they were blessed to share almost 3 decades together and have children. Both of their journeys are shifting and both agreed to separate to pursue their growth independently. 

Another one that shocked the world was Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello. They were together for almost 10 years. They both agreed that it was a difficult decision to make and wanted people to know but still kept the divorce private. Nobody really knew why they decided to separate but then reports from TMZ came out. Those reports said that Manganiello wanted kids but Vergara did not. 

Melinda and Bill Gates ended up getting divorced after 27 years together. In those 27 years, they have had and raised three children and built a foundation for the world. They both believe they have a mission and will work on that together but both think they can’t grow together for the next phases of their lives. 

After 45 years of marriage, Meryl Streep and Don Gummer decided to separate. They were called one of the longest-lasting marriages in Hollywood. It came out that they separated 6 years prior but “stayed” together. They still celebrated their 45th anniversary even though they were separated. They’re still partners and support each other in everything both personal and professional. There are other amazing couples that are thriving in their life. I hope they last a long time like these couples.
