Actor Jason Biggs and writer and actress Jenny Mollen announced on Thursday that they are divorcing after 18 years [1] of marriage.
The separation marks the end of one of Hollywood's long-standing partnerships. The couple, both based in Los Angeles, had been together for nearly two decades after meeting in 2007 [4].
"We decided to go our separate ways after 18 wonderful years," Biggs said [3].
A representative for the couple said they are on great terms [0]. The announcement comes shortly after Mollen expressed her happiness in the relationship during a recent interview, where she said, "I feel so lucky to be married to Jason" [2].
Biggs and Mollen married in 2008 [4]. Throughout their marriage, they shared two sons, Sid, and Lazlo [4].
While reports vary on the exact circumstances of their first meeting in 2007 [4], the couple maintained a public profile as a supportive pair in the entertainment industry. The official announcement of the split occurred on May 14, 2026 [5].
No specific reason for the divorce was provided in the public statements. Both parties have indicated a desire for an amicable transition as they move forward separately while continuing to co-parent their children.
“"We decided to go our separate ways after 18 wonderful years," Biggs said.”
The dissolution of this marriage reflects a common trend of high-profile celebrity splits that prioritize amicable co-parenting and public diplomacy. By emphasizing their positive relationship and shared history, Biggs and Mollen are attempting to manage the public narrative to avoid the volatility often associated with Hollywood divorces.
