The Real Reason Steve Howey Is Getting Divorced

Steve Howey and Sarah Shahi met in 2004 when Shahi had a guest appearance on Reba, per CBS. Five years later, they got married and welcomed their first child together, William Wolf. Then came their adorable twins in 2015.

Alas, the couple's marriage has come to an end, but the bright side is that these two will always be there for their kids first. "As we enter into this new phase of our lives, our priority will remain co-parenting our children with so much love, mutual respect and friendship," they told Us Weekly in a joint statement. "And though our relationship is changing, we are committed to continuing our lives as a loving family."

As Us Weekly noted, Shahi filed for divorce in May 2020, citing "irreconcilable differences." The two separated in April 2020, per court docs. Howey and Shahi didn't elaborate on why they split, saying they "are so grateful for the past 10 years together and proud of our children that we've raised."

One possibility for the breakup? Maybe work schedules got in the way. Howey has been busy filming the last season of Shameless, while Shahi has starred in various projects throughout the years, including The Rookie, Persons of Interest, and Sex/Life for Netflix.
