Example and his wife, Erin McNaught, have split after 11 years of marriage.
The Kickstarts hitmaker – real name Elliot Gleave – and his wife issued a joint statement, saying their relationship had come to a ‘natural end’ and that they still have an ‘abundance of love and respect for one another.’
Sharing a sweet selfie of them smiling together, the couple, who share their children Evander and Ennio, wrote: ‘Although we don’t feel this is anybody’s business but our own, it is inevitable that sometime soon the media could start speculating over our personal life. At the start of the UK summer we decided to separate.
‘We have had an amazing 11 years together, but just a few too many adventures. Obviously we spent a lot of time behind the scenes trying to figure things out, but we came to the realisation that perhaps our time as a couple had just come to a natural end.
‘So we have decided to go our separate ways whilst there is still an abundance of love and respect for one another. We have been Co-parenting happily and effectively now for almost half a year and our boys are surrounded with love.’
They added that they would ‘appreciate space’ at the moment, going on to say: ‘If you see us out and about together it’s still the same old Elliot & Erin. Though we spend a lot of our time apart we still enjoy time together climbing, jogging, cinema, chasing kids around the park or getting coffee.
‘Expect to see us out and about together with our children often. This is as amicable as it gets. Nobody is blaming anyone in all this. We are very happy that this is the right decision and hope that others can respect this too. Everything is as it should be 🙏🏽❤️ Love, E&E. P.s. this picture was taken today.’
Example and Erin met in 2011 when she interviewed him for MTV Australia.
They got engaged in 2012, tying the knot in 2013.
He said at the time: ‘I wasn’t nervous on the day until the moment I saw Erin walking down the aisle.
‘For the most part I held it together, but as soon as I started reading my vows I had to shed a few tears.
‘Erin kept it totally together for the whole ceremony.’
Last year, Example shared a tribute to celebrate their 10th anniversary, writing: ‘Celebrating TEN YEARS (slightly earlier than we’d liked to but who cares).
‘Shout out my life partner for having my children, having me, having the most twisted sense of humour, ageing backwards and teaching me something new each and every day’.
