Elliot Page Divorce: 'Umbrella Academy' Star Officially Splits With Emma Portner
Elliot Page has announced the "difficult decision" to divorce his wife of three years.
In a joint statement released on Tuesday, the "Umbrella Academy" star and Emma Portner said, "After much thought and careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to divorce following our separation last summer."
According to TMZ, Elliot filed for divorce in a Manhattan Supreme Court and listed the case as "contested." A contested divorce is when a person and their spouse don't agree on at least one part of the divorce at the time of its filing.
But despite the bad news, there is no hostility between the former couple. The two said they have "the utmost respect" for one another and will remain close friends.
In January 2018, the 33-year-old star announced that he and the 26-year-old professional dancer and choreographer tied the knot.
At the time, Page posted a picture of their hands with engagement rings as they embraced with the caption, "Can't believe I get to call this extraordinary woman my wife."
Over the years, the "Juno" star has continued to share other pictures of their marriage, particularly during special occasions such as dinner dates and Pride day.
