And now Sia has filed documents in Los Angeles, calling for an end to the two-year marriage, citing irreconcilable differences, reported Billboard magazine.
The brief statement from the couple, released following their split read, "After much soul searching and consideration we have made the decision to separate as a couple."

News of the couple's marriage split came a day after Sia scored three 2017 Grammy nominations, one for her "Zootopia" song "Try Everything", and two for her latest album, "This Is Acting.
