Shocker, Not Really: Melanie Griffith & Antonio Banderas Split

Griffith & Banderas

Well, at least they are not consciously uncoupling, and think that water has feelings...

"We have thoughtfully and consensually decided to finalize our almost twenty years marriage in a loving and friendly manner honoring and respecting each other, our family and friends and the beautiful time we have spent together" - Melanie & Antonio

It's been a long time coming in this writer's estimation, and I hear the split is amicable, one of the most unlikely couples in Hollywood to ever get married are calling it quits. You've got to give it to them they lasted eighteen years.

Here's the 411: The famous duo have been married for 18 years and have one daughter together, Stella, who turns 18 in the fall.

Griffith has cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for ending her marriage to the Spanish actor and is asking for spousal support.

Best to both of you.
