Robin Thicke and Paula Patton have confirmed they have separated after nearly ten years of marriage.

"We will always love each other and be best friends, however, we have mutually decided to separate at this time," the couple said in a statement, according to People.

The "Blurred Lines" singer and the "About Last Night" actress met at the age of 14 and married in 2005. In 2010 they welcomed their son, Julian Fuego.

In recent months the couple has been plagued by relationship rumors. In January, Thicke was photographed snuggling up to a woman at a nightclub in Paris, according to a New York Daily News report. Thicke was among other A-listers, including Kanye West, who was at Club 79 that night.

Thicke recently made news when a Boston University student group, Humanists of Boston University, collected upwards of 1,500 signatures to petition his upcoming performance at the school’s Agganis Arena. They claim the lyrics to his 2013 hit “Blurred Lines” are sexist. He's slated to play on March 4.
