LOS ANGELES, September 16, 2026 — Amanda Seyfried and Thomas Sadoski have confirmed that they have separated after nine years of marriage, saying they had been living apart for some time and that the decision was ultimately the right one for their family.
The actors announced the separation in a joint statement shared with PEOPLE. “We have been separated for a while, and it’s proven to be the right move for us and our family unit. We’ve got each other forever—and it’s GOOD,” they said.
The statement provides no details about what led to the separation, and neither actor has publicly described the circumstances behind the decision. That distinction is important as reports about celebrity breakups can quickly move beyond what the people involved have actually confirmed.
Seyfried and Sadoski first met while working together on the Off-Broadway play The Way We Get By in 2015. They later reunited in The Last Word, playing romantic interests, and their professional relationship developed into a real-life romance.
The couple married privately in March 2017. Sadoski later described the wedding as an elopement, saying the two traveled to the country with an officiant and married with only the two of them present.
They went on to have two children together. Their family life has generally remained private, with the pair making relatively few public appearances as a couple.
The separation announcement also comes against the backdrop of a relationship that had continued to appear cordial in public. Recent coverage noted that Seyfried had still shared a social-media image of Sadoski shortly before the separation became public, underscoring why assumptions about the timing or circumstances of a private breakup should be treated cautiously.
For now, the confirmed information is straightforward: Seyfried and Sadoski are separated, they say the arrangement has been the right decision for their family, and they intend to remain connected. They have not publicly provided further details about their private circumstances.
