He definitely did not cheated. He always brought his wife to award dinners and was always proud of her. She is the one who filed for the divorce. She could had waited for divorce to be finalized. There were no rumor about their separation. So she is inviting all the attention. I feel there was no need to announce.

We cannot blame either of the parties though. Different people deal with such a sad thing in differently ways. May be he didn’t want to talk about it but she chose to do so. Only mystery is if she really wanted space, why did she try to draw everyone’s attention with this announcement?

I met him personally. He doesn’t even shake hands with his female fans. A couple can grow apart because of many reasons, least of all cheating. It’s unfortunate how his character is coming under the scanner.

Well that happens every time a famous couple gets a divorce. Usually it's the woman whose character is scrutinised. Ofcourse there could be any number of reasons and cheating is one of them but like I said it's hard to associate him with that because if his image. The statement says she made the decision out of a lot of pain and agony. That doesn't sound like an 'amicable' divorce. Sounds like it came as a shock to her as well. Anyway hope things work out for them and their children

Bold part: my same thought. It looks odd.

Not announcing it is not going to achieve anything. The news would make it to the press and they'd hound the couple at their home or wherever. They would even now but maybe she wanted to get the initial drama over with.
