Hollywood actors Amanda Seyfried and Thomas Sadoski have officially confirmed that their nine-year marriage has come to an end. In a joint statement to People magazine, the couple said they have been living apart for some time and emphasized that the decision was the right one for the whole family. The celebrities did not reveal the reasons for the breakup nor clarify whether a legal divorce had been finalized, limiting themselves to stating the fact that they now live in separate places.
Joint Statement to People
Both actors issued a single text in which they tried to maintain a friendly and restrained tone. “We have been separated for some time now, and it turned out to be the right step for us and our family. We are together forever — and that is a good thing,” reads the statement passed to the publication. The wording deliberately emphasizes the preservation of a close relationship and shared care for their children, rather than any conflict between the former spouses. This approach is typical of couples who want to minimize public attention to their personal circumstances.
The Road to Marriage: From the Stage to the Film Set
The story of Seyfried and Sadoski's meeting began in 2015, when they performed together in the off-Broadway play The Way We Get By. They met again on the set of the film The Last Word, where the actors played the roles of lovers. The romance began in 2016, and by September of that same year the engagement was announced. In March 2017, the couple secretly married. Sadoski later recalled that the ceremony was as intimate as possible: “We snuck away. We just drove out of town with the officiant — just the two of us getting our thing done.”
Family and Privacy
Soon after the wedding, the couple welcomed their daughter Nina, and in September 2020 their family was joined by a son, Thomas Jr. Throughout their nine years of marriage, the actors have tried not to display their family life in public: they lived in the northern part of New York State and only occasionally shared individual moments of everyday life, including photos of their children and pets. Notably, as recently as early 2026, Seyfried publicly spoke about supporting her husband, noting that Sadoski makes many sacrifices for her career and helps her through a demanding professional period.
Contradictory Data
The text of the statement and the accompanying comments contain a slight inconsistency in wording. In the quote itself, the couple uses the word “divorced,” which implies the end of the marriage; however, the explanation accompanying the statement explicitly notes that the actors do not clarify whether a legal divorce is involved, and that only the fact of living separately is known. Thus, one version describes the situation as a divorce, while the other — as living apart without confirmation of the legal status. Until official clarifications from both sides, the exact legal nature of the split remains undetermined.
As of the time of preparing this article (September 16, 2026), neither Seyfried nor Sadoski has given any additional interviews or revealed any details. Both actors continue their professional work, and their joint statement remains the only official source of information about the state of their relationship.
