The lines are no longer blurred as Robin Thicke, 36, and Paula Patton, 38, have separated after eight years of marriage, Yahoo confirms.
"We will always love each other and be best friends, however, we have mutually decided to separate at this time," the couple said in a statement.
The high school sweethearts met in Los Angeles when Thicke was just 14 and Patton, 16. They married in 2005 and welcomed their only child, son Julian Fuego, in April 2010.
The split comes after months of unfriendly rumors that the "Blurred Lines" crooner had been cheating on Patton. In August, Thicke was spotted grabbing a female fan's bottom in a Miami club and in January the sexy singer was photographed locking lips with an unknown woman at a Paris nightclub.
