Drew Barrymore Confirms Divorce, Releases a Statement

Drew Barrymore and Will Kopelman have confirmed that they are getting a divorce by releasing a joint statement about their split.

“Sadly our family is separating legally, although we do not feel this takes away from us being a family,” the pair told People in their statement. “Divorce might make one feel like a failure, but eventually you start to find grace in the idea that life goes on.”

“Our children are our universe, and we look forward to living the rest of our lives with them as the first priority,” they added.

Drew and Will, who got married in June 2012, have two children – Olive, 3, and Frankie, almost 2.
