It’s been a whirlwind of a romance for Julianne Hough and Brooks Laich, who met in 2013, and married in 2017. For a while, it seemed like they had the perfect relationship. However, their relationship became strained in early 2020, and they announced their separation on May 29.
The couple seems to want “different things in life,” according to a source who exclusively spoke to Life & Style. “They’ve had so many ups and downs, but they also have very different ways of dealing with them.”
Less than six months later, Julianne made their split official and filed for divorce from her husband on November 2, 2020, Life & Style confirmed. But just because they’re no longer in a romantic relationship doesn’t mean they don’t have love for one another. An insider told In Touch in August that the pair are “friendly exes” who “remain on good terms.”
“Having some time apart has been beneficial for both parties,” said the source. “It’s made them reflect on what went wrong in their marriage.”
The couple has been spotted out grabbing lunch together since their split, proving they want to stay in each other’s lives. At one point, the couple had “left the door open to giving their marriage another shot and have discussed their issues,” but it seems they decided it’s best to remain apart.
