American singer Prince Royce and actress Emeraude Toubia have officially announced that they have split up and are ending their relationship after ten years. The couple has confirmed their divorce after three years of marriage in a joint statement to Billboard. "While the end of a relationship is never easy, we are at peace with our mutual decision and grateful for the life and love we shared for the last ten years," their statement read. "To our friends and families, including our fans, please know that we are together in this difficult decision and that there is no need whatsoever to take sides," Royce and Toubia added. The couple further said, "We appreciate your support as we begin this next chapter of our lives and we wish each other only the very best in all future endeavors. Thank you, in advance, for respecting our privacy, during this difficult time. Emeraude & Royce".
Born to Dominican parents, Royce, whose real name is Geoffrey Royce Rojas, and Canadian-born American actress Toubia got married in an intimate wedding ceremony in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, in 2018. The couple had maintained privacy around their relationship and celebrated a decade of being together last November. Known for starring in the main role in the series With Love, the actress in an interview with ET said, "I think the fact that we like to take some trips whenever we can. Honesty, being able to talk to your partner about what you like and what you don't like." The 33-year-old also added, "Listen, listen to what they want, always to express, 'I feel this, you feel that,' and to listen to what they're feeling and that it's valid. Just because maybe you don't feel that way doesn't mean it's not real to them. So you need to understand where they're coming from and just kind of talk about it more than anything. Talk about it."
