Emmitt Smith and his wife Pat have been together since he was an active member on the Dallas Cowboys, but those days are now long gone.
Pat issued a joint statement on social media over the weekend announcing that she and Emmitt are separating.
“We are publicly sharing that after much contemplation and prayer, we have decided to separate,” the statement read. “We will continue to move forward with love and compassion for one another, as co-parents and friends.
We will work together in the best interests of our children, our family, community and businesses. As we take this journey toward the next chapter in our lives, we ask for privacy at this time.”
The couple first got married in 2000 and share three kids together.
The former Miss Virginia USA beauty queen was also married to actor Martin Lawrence from 1995 to 1997 and has a daughter with him.
