Paula Patton and Robin Thicke are ending their marriage after eight years. 

People reports that the pair, who first met nearly 22 years ago, have decided to go their separate ways. 

“We will always love each other and be best friends, however, we have mutually decided to seperate at this time” said Patton and Thicke in an exclusive statement Monday.

The singer and actress have been married since 2005 and welcomed son Julian Fuego Thicke in April 2010.

Although there were rumours floating of a pending separation, Thicke recently described their relationship as “the greatest love of the century, and the most functional, dysfunctional marriage in Hollywood.”
