Amanda Seyfried SPLITS from husband Thomas Sadoski after nine years of marriage

Amanda Seyfried and husband Thomas Sadoski have split after nine years of marriage. 

Seyfried, 40, and Sadoski, 50, revealed they have been separated 'for a while' as they confirmed their split in a joint statement to PEOPLE on Tuesday. 

'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 in their statement. 

The Mamma Mia! star shares two children with the actor: daughter Nina, nine, and son Thomas, five. 

The pair were last pictured together at an event on January 9, when Sadoski joined the actress at a party celebrating her Golden Globe nomination for The Testament of Ann Lee at Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles.

The Daily Mail has reached out to Seyfried and Sadoski's representatives for comment.

Seyfried proved things were still amicable between the pair as she shared a snap of her estranged husband to her Instagram Stories on Tuesday. 

The photo saw him sitting at a table with a bearded dragon perched on his shoulder. '@thomassadoski is a #reptiledad,' she wrote on the snap. 

The actress went on to share a poignant quote about living fully, forgiving others and keeping your heart open.

'Defend you heart, do whatever it takes to keep it open despite what it has been through. Forgive, not just others, but yourself, as well,' part of the quote read. 'Yes yes yes,' Seyfried wrote underneath.

She also posted a cryptic quote which read: 'There's really not a difficult thing unless you decide it's a difficult thing. Otherwise, it's just the next thing you’re figuring out.' 

It's unclear exactly how long the pair have been separated, but during their last public appearance in January, they appeared close as they posed for photos together. 

In January, Seyfried told Vogue that Sadoski 'sacrifices a lot for me' amid her busy career. 

'He also knows that, in this moment, the opportunities I’m being afforded are insane,' she added. 

The duo met in 2015 while starring together in the off-Broadway play The Way We Get By.

Seyfried previously shared that they were both in 'bad relationships' when they first met. 

The two crossed paths again while filming The Last Word, where they played love interests. Just months later, they were dating in real life. 

They tied the knot during a private ceremony in California back in March 2017, just days before the birth of their daughter. 

Recounting her wedding day, she told Net-A-Porter's digital magazine PorterEdit in 2018: 'We got married in Topanga, March last year. Just the two of us. And afterwards, I was like, "Can we just go to Cheebo?" It was awesome.'

For Seyfried, it wasn't at all a difficult decision to eschew the glitz and glamour of an extravagant wedding - the kind embraced by so many of her contemporaries in Hollywood - as she's used to playing dress-up so frequently in film.

'I get married all the time,' she said. 'I was in a wedding dress last week! I also go to premieres where people take my picture. I just don’t care about all that stuff.'

The star, who was nine months pregnant at the time she tied the knot, had very practical reasons for wanting to get married ahead of giving birth. 

She explained: 'I really wanted to have rings on in the hospital, you know? And what if something goes wrong, and he’s not legally my husband?'

Throughout their marriage, Seyfried and Sadoski kept their family life mostly out of the spotlight, embracing a quiet life on their farm in upstate New York

Seyfried, who has previously dated her Mamma Mia! co-star Dominic Cooper and actor Justin Long, also revealed that she was impressed when she first met Sadoski, because they were both in 'bad relationships' but he didn't flirt with her.

She said of the timing of their first meeting: 'We were both in bad relationships...[Thomas] never flirted, never disrespected his wife. That was another reason why I thought, later on, that I could marry him.'

And once Sadoski ended his eight-year marriage to casting director Kimberly Hope, Seyfried shared that it made things 'healthy' and 'freeing' when they started dating in early 2016.

'It was amazing,' she said. 'It felt healthy and freeing and clean. We can tell the story without any guilt.'

At the time Seyfried also admitted that her husband's age is exactly what drew her to him, telling PorterEdit: 'I told my husband: "If you were any younger, I wouldn’t have married you."'

Sadoski also spoke about their wedding and his 'love' and 'respect' for Seyfried while appearing on The Late Late Show with James Corden in 2017.

'We eloped. We just took off into the country with an officiant and, just the two of us, and we did our thing,' he said.

'Listen, she's the person that I love, admire, respect most in the world,' he added.

He added that the ceremony 'was beautiful. It was everything that it should be.'

He also said that the two wrote their own vows. 'It was just the two of us talking to each other. Then we went out to dinner. We had a great day. It was perfect.'

Throughout their marriage, Seyfried and Sadoski kept their family life mostly out of the spotlight, embracing a quiet life on their farm in upstate New York.

Seyfried has occasionally given fans glimpses into their private life via her social media, sharing photos of their farm and animals.

The actress was recently pictured attending the premiere of her latest film, The Life and Deaths of Wilson Shedd, solo at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 13. 

The movie follows a teacher in an abusive relationship who 'takes a job at a maximum security prison, where she falls for a charismatic inmate.' 

She also has four upcoming projects in the works, including Octet, a musical drama directed by Lin-Manuel Miranda.
