Celebrity Chef Giada De Laurentiis and Husband Split After 11 Years

Celebrity chef Giada De Laurentiis and husband Todd Thompson have decided to call it quits following a summer separation.

Giada wrote on her Facebook page Monday night:

After an amicable separation since July, Todd and I have decided to end our marriage. Although our decision to separate comes with a great deal of sadness, our focus on the future and overwhelming desire for our family's happiness has given us the strength to move forward on separate, yet always connected paths. Todd and I share a beautiful daughter and a lifetime of great memories that we both treasure more than anything. We are so thankful for our friends and family, and really appreciate the support in this time of change

The 44-year-old chef and the fashion designer have been married since 2003 and have a 6-year-old daughter named Jade.
