"The couple had hoped to keep this separation private for the sake of their children."

If your parents don't live together, you'd think the kids would notice without a press release.

Anyhoo.. they were all moving from Malibu to NYC recently he said in an interview this summer on Letterman, so it doesn't add up that they have been separated for months. But hope whatever they are doing is peaceful.

Ginger: hysterical!

the point of the moving comment was to deflect any speculation about the separation.
david works on californication in L.A. while Tea would be in NY and no one would really suspect anything but then with rehab and such i guess they just decided to be honest about it.'
it's too bad, they are both cool people. i wish both them and their kids the best in this situation.

so sad - i was hoping it's not true..i really like them together...

they were keeping the separation private, but the sex addiction was all over the place? Weirdly displaced efforts.

I hope things work out for them.

It was wierder to think that they were still together after his sex addiction became public and it became pretty clear he was not monogamous. I'm sure that they weren't keeping the seperation private from the children, obviously, but were trying to keep it quiet so the kids didn't have to deal with the media and US covers ect..

That's strange, I didn't know that they had been separated that long but I guess I'm not surprised in light of the statements about his sex addiction. I just saw pictures of the family together over the summer in Malibu and they seemed happy.

NOOOOOO that's so sad!
ughhhhh

I feel badly for the kids but their split really doesn't shock me at all.

I hope she'll be happier now... could not care less about 'him'.

I like them together and hope they can keep that rope tied together.

I didn't want this one to happen. I really liked them together.

i think that it's a shame when you hear about the trials and tribulations of marriage. i hope that they are able to figure things out and that they are able to make whatever needs to be done work for their kids.

Boo. I liked them together. Freakin' David! Keep your pants zipped, man!

maybe they were/are trying to work out it. seperation doesn't always mean divorce. maybe they seperated so he could get his life back in order and then work on their marriage

he's a slob...nice to take a role where you're a sex addict...@$$hole must've thought that was a good idea...I like Tea

I really liked them together too, this is sad

I'm with DesperateDiva.
