"Obviously we spent a lot of time behind the scenes trying to figure things out, but we came to the realisation that perhaps our time as a couple had just come to a natural end."
Addressing their two children together, he continued: "We have been co-parenting happily and effectively now for almost half a year and our boys are surrounded with love.
"Erin and the boys flew to London for four weeks so Elliot wouldn’t have to go months without seeing Evander and Ennio.
"We had an amazing family holiday, and look forward to more in the future."
The couple went on to explain they have the full support of their "closest friends and family" and would "appreciate space" from fans.
