Following his recent treatment for sex addiction, David Duchovny has confirmed rumors that he and his wife of 11 years, Tea Leoni, have split.
The couple released a statement on Wednesday (October 15) confirming that they have been separated for some time.
“In light of continuous speculation over the lives and marriage of Tea Leoni and David Duchovny, the couple has confirmed that they have in fact been separated for several months,” the statement, released by reps Annett Wolf and Evelyn Karamanos, says.
“The couple had hoped to keep this separation private for the sake of their children.”
Duchovny, 48, and Leoni, 42, have two children: daughter Madelaine West, 9, and son Kyd, 6.
The actor voluntarily entered rehab in August for the treatment of sex addiction, and was released earlier this month.
Duchovny’s rep, Stanton ‘Larry’ Stein, said the actor “will very soon begin work on his new movie.”

I really feel for David. I’ve been trying to come to terms with my sex addiction since I was four.
