New Delhi: International pop star Ricky Martin and his husband, Jwan Yosef, have announced their decision to end their six-year marriage. The couple shared the news in a joint statement, emphasizing their intention to part ways amicably and with mutual respect. They expressed their commitment to prioritizing the well-being of their children and maintaining a healthy family dynamic.

Ricky Martin and Jwan Yosef share two children together, a daughter named Lucia, who is four years old, and a three-year-old son named Renn. In addition to their shared parenting responsibilities, Ricky will also continue to raise his twin sons, Matteo and Valentino, who are 14 years old, as a single parent.

The now-former couple's relationship began in 2015 when they first connected on Instagram. Shortly after their virtual encounter, they had their first in-person meeting in London. Six months later, they officially started dating. Ricky and Jwan made their love public by appearing together at the amFAR Inspiration Gala in 2016, and the following year, they got engaged. Finally, in 2018, they tied the knot and got married.

The announcement of their divorce comes in the wake of a sexual assault allegation made against Ricky Martin by his nephew, Dennis Yadiel Sánchez Martin. According to the nephew, he was subjected to harassment and domestic violence during their time together. Ricky has vehemently denied all these allegations and subsequently filed a $20 million lawsuit against his nephew.

Despite the challenges and turmoil surrounding the allegation, Ricky and Jwan expressed their desire to maintain a relationship centered on peace and friendship, fostering an environment of respect and love for one another. They are determined to prioritize the joint upbringing of their children and provide them with a stable and nurturing environment.

While their decision to part ways may come as a surprise to many, their commitment to co-parenting and preserving a positive family dynamic reflects their dedication to the well-being of their children and their mutual respect as individuals.
