It's over for celebrity stylist and reality TV star Rachel Zoe and her husband, Rodger Berman. The couple has decided to split up.
“The Rachel Zoe Project” star announced Monday that she and Berman “have come to the mutual decision to end our marriage” after 33 years together and 26 years of marriage.
“We are incredibly proud of the loving family we have created and our countless memories together,” Zoe and Berman said in a joint statement posted on Instagram. “Our number one priority has and always will be our children. We are committed to co-parenting our children and continuing to work together on the many businesses we share. We ask for privacy during this time as we navigate this new chapter.”
The couple, who are from New York, met in 1991 while both were attending George Washington University in Washington, D.C. Zoe was working as a hostess at a D.C. restaurant where he worked as a waiter. They married in February 1998 and had two sons, Skyler, 13, and Kaius, 10, who have appeared on the designer's Bravo reality series and her Lifetime show “Fashionably Late With Rachel Zoe.”
The “Climbing in Heels” podcast host, who rose to fame in the early 2000s as a wardrobe stylist for the likes of Nicole Richie and Lindsay Lohan, has become synonymous with the bohemian, rocker-chic aesthetic over the past two decades. She has expanded her brand as a fashion designer and television personality over the past two decades, creating Rachel Zoe Inc. and the investment management firm Rachel Zoe Ventures, among others. Berman, a former investment banker, is co-founder and co-CEO of the former firm and managing partner of the latter.
It is unclear whether the couple has yet filed for divorce.
