Actor-director Ben Stiller and Christine Taylor are calling it quits after 17 years of marriage.
The couple, who has two children together, announced their split in a joint statement to People magazine.
"With tremendous love and respect for each other, and the 18 years we spent together as a couple, we have made the decision to separate.
"Our priority will continue to be raising our children as devoted parents and the closest of friends. We kindly ask that the media respect our privacy at this time," Stiller, 51, and Taylor, 45, said.
The two tied the knot in 2000 at an oceanfront ceremony in Kauai, Hawaii and are parents to daughter Ella, 15, and son Quinlin, 11.
Stiller and Taylor had worked together in many films such as, "Zoolander", "Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story", "Tropic Thunder", "Arrested Development" and "Zoolander 2".
