Split: Natalie, 32, said she and Johns had grown apart due to the pressures of work

Theirs was an unconventional marriage, with former Neighbours star Imbruglia based in the UK and Johns living for much of the time in Australia.

In a joint statement, the pair said: "While we are very sad that our marriage has ended, we want to make it clear that our parting is amicable and we remain friends.

"This mutual decision has not been taken lightly or quickly.
"However, our career demands and our lives in different parts of the world have brought us to the point where unfortunately this difficult decision was necessary for both of us.
"We have simply grown apart through not being able to spend enough time together."

They went on: "We have issued this statement to set the record straight and to eliminate any need for speculation.

"We will not be making any further public statements whatsoever in regard to this very private matter and politely ask that people respect our sincere wishes in this regard."

Imbruglia shot to fame as Beth Brennan in Australian soap Neighbours in the early 1990s.

She swapped a TV career for pop and released best-selling single Torn in 1997.

Her debut album, Left Of Middle, sold six million copies worldwide. She has released two albums since then and appeared in the film Johnny English opposite Rowan Atkinson.

Aw, that's too bad. Didn't she date David Schwimmer in the early 90s for a bit? Anyway, I always thought she was stunningly gorgeous.

[Spike413]

With their cheekbones, the kids could've been gorgeous.

[Working Girl]

No.No.No.

[Ce'nedra]

The boy's all grown up... and how!!

It's a shame these two broke up, but don't you have to live in the same country to make a marriage work?!

^ I agree it wasnt quite realistic of them... But i supposed they tried! I cant believe they had been together since 99. Such a hot couple

[Suburban Snob]

That's too bad. I really thought they were going to be of the few who stayed together, they seemed so right for each other. Such an attractive pair, too. LOL.

That sucks about the divorce.. he looks really different now in a good way and all though she's still gorgeous, it looks she might of had plastic surgery.

Right...shame though, they did seem to be really in love at one point

[rouge]

Oh no! What a shame...but yeh, I suppose it'd be hard to maintain a relationship if u barely get time to see one another.

[adorefaith]

this saddens me...but it also bewilders me...why dont relationships seem to ever come first for these people?...you'd think seeing as they've both had their fair share of success and fame in their careers that they'd be willing to make them priority no.2 in order to save their marriage....pretty sad...
