A Hollywood Romance Comes to an End
On a sunny Los Angeles afternoon, the news broke out—Leah Remini and Angelo Pagán are no longer a couple. The duo, who first locked eyes in 1996 at the vibrant Cuban club El Floridita, have decided to go their separate ways after nearly three decades together.
Their journey, filled with love, laughter, and a shared screen presence, has been nothing short of a fairy tale. But as they say, all good things must come to an end. In their joint Instagram post, the couple expressed this:
"Well, here we are. After 28 years together and 21 years of marriage, we have decided to file for divorce," they wrote. "This decision came after a lot of thought and care, and as hard as divorce is, we are approaching this with a positive outlook because we know it’s what’s best for us. We are proud of how we have worked through this together."
"Yes, we’re sad, and we’ve got some figuring out to do as we continue to move forward into our new normal—together still in many ways, and apart in some new ones," the statement continued. "But here’s the thing: we’ve been best friends for so many years. We are still celebrating holidays together, watching our favorite tv shows together, and gathering as a family."
This statement not only shocked their fans but also showcased their united front even in times of separation. They emphasized that the decision was made after much thought and care, highlighting their positive outlook towards this new chapter in their lives.
Addressing the elephant in the room, Remini and Pagán revealed that they had both changed over the years and were no longer the right people for each other. However, they assured their followers that their bond remains strong, having evolved into something different but equally special.
“After a lot of effort and consideration, we’ve decided to take this step, which reflects who we are today,” they continued. “Our bond is still strong—it’s just evolved into something different. We think a marriage that lasted this long and created so many beautiful memories, especially raising our incredible daughter, is something to celebrate.”
"From our perspective, this marriage was a huge success. And now, we’re looking forward to creating even more cherished moments—just in a different way," they also shared.
The pair added that they hoped to be "transparent" about the future after making their marriage public on various television shows throughout the years. Despite the split, the couple plans to continue celebrating holidays together, watching their favorite TV shows, and gathering as a family.
They hope their journey can inspire others to see that relationships, whether they change or end, aren't failures. The couple's mature handling of their divorce and their commitment to maintaining a strong family bond have certainly set a new standard for Hollywood breakups.
