After 11 years of marriage, the honeymoon phase has passed for Courteney Cox and David Arquette.

The couple has agreed to a trial separation. On Monday, they released a statement saying, “…The reason for this separation is to better understand ourselves and the qualities we need in a partner and for our marriage. We remain best friends and responsible parents to our daughter and we still love each other deeply. As we go though this process we are determined to use kindness and understanding to get through this together. We are comfortable with the boundaries that we have established for each other during this separation and we hope that our friends, family, fans and the media also show us respect, dignity, understanding and love at this time as well.”

While Courteney admitted back in June that she and David had been attending couples therapy, on September 22, Court appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live, raving about her hubby and how much fun he is.

Courteney and David have spent all summer filming Scream 4 together. Ironically, they began their relationship back in 1996 while filming the original Scream, and married three years later. They have a six-year-old daughter, Coco.

Speaking of Splitsville, pop star Christina Aguilera has split from her music executive husband, Jordan Bratman.

A source tells Us Magazine, “They were very much in love, but over the last six months, it became clear they were more like friends than husband and wife.” The source adds that the couple even took a trip to Italy in August to rekindle their relationship, but it didn’t help.

Christina and Jordan met in 2002 when he was a producer on one of her albums, and they tied the knot in 2005. Although they have not confirmed whether or not they will divorce, they have been separated for a few months already and are now living apart.

The insider says right now the couple’s two-year-old son, Max, is the main concern of the relationship, and Christina is “doing her best to be a great mom.”

It’s so hard not to imagine our favorite Hollywood couples together, but Positively Celebrity wishes them all the best of luck, and hopes that they can all get through this difficult time.

  1. It seems like she was just raving about how wonderful Jordan is…I know things change in relationships, but its such a shame when divorce is decided on so quickly. Do people ever go to counseling anymore?? I just hate to see these two split…
