Amanda Seyfried and Thomas Sadoski Announce Separation After Nine Years
Amanda Seyfried and Thomas Sadoski have confirmed their separation, ending a nine-year relationship that began on a New York stage and quietly fell apart before going public. The couple shared the news through a joint statement to People, saying it had already been some time since they parted ways.
The Statement
“We have been separated for a while, and it’s proven to be the right move for us and our family unit,” they said. “We’ve got each other forever — and it’s GOOD.”
The upbeat tone of the statement was notable, setting the split apart from more acrimonious celebrity announcements and reflecting what many observers have called a divorce glow up approach — emphasizing positivity and co-parenting commitment over blame or grievance.
How They Met and Married
Seyfried and Sadoski met in 2015 while appearing together in the off-Broadway production of “The Way We Get By.” Their relationship developed quietly, and the two married in a secret ceremony in early 2017. The couple kept many details of their personal life private throughout the years, rarely making joint public appearances.
The marriage lasted just over nine years before the separation, which was apparently underway for some time before Monday’s confirmation.
Their Children
The couple share two children: a daughter, Nina, who is 9 years old, and a son, Thomas Jr., who is 5 and turning 6 this month. Their statement’s reference to “our family unit” reflected an emphasis on protecting their co-parenting relationship, even as the romantic partnership ends.
Signs Before the Announcement
In the weeks before confirming the split, Seyfried listed her Hollywood Hills home for $3.2 million. She had purchased the property in 2011 for $1.85 million. The listing came as she had already been residing primarily on the East Coast, a shift that appears to have been underway for some time.
Part of a Broader Trend
Seyfried and Sadoski are among the high-profile couples to announce a separation in recent months. Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom also ended their relationship after roughly nine years together, while Lori Loughlin confirmed a split from her husband of 27 years. All three announcements have been handled with a stated emphasis on mutual respect and the well-being of any children involved.
What Comes Next
No details about divorce filings or custody arrangements have been publicly shared. Seyfried, known for roles in “Mamma Mia!,” “Mean Girls,” and HBO’s “The Dropout,” has continued working steadily in film and television. Sadoski has maintained a lower profile in recent years following his run on “The Newsroom.” No further statement from either party was expected immediately.
