Jenna Dewan Tatum and Channing Tatum just announced they will be separating after 9 years of marriage, People reports. The couple, who met on the set of the 2006 dance film, Step Up, were married in 2009. The Magic Mike star and superstar dancer became parents in 2012 to their daughter, Everly. Buzz about their split reportedly began when Jenna attended the annual Vanity Fair Oscars after party sans Channing–at the time, she told reporters the actor was on "Daddy duty" and that she was grateful to have the night off, reports People.

The couple announced their split on Tatum's Instagram, stating:

"First off, it feels odd that we have to share this kind of thing with everyone, but it’s a consequence of the lives we’ve chosen to lead, which we also happen to be deeply grateful for. We’re living in an incredible moment in time, but it’s also a time where truth can easily get distorted into “alternative facts” ]]>😉
