Oscar winner Meryl Streep and husband Don Gummer (married in 1978) have announced that they had separated six years ago.

The three-time Oscar winner and her spouse of 45 years shared the news of their separation in a statement from a representative for Streep.

“Don Gummer and Meryl Streep have been separated for more than 6 years, and while they will always care for each other, they have chosen lives apart,” it read.

The couple haven’t posed on a red carpet together since the 90th Academy Awards, where Streep was nominated for her role as Katharine Graham in The Post. 

However, at the Princesa de Asturias Awards in Asturias, Spain, on Friday, Streep was wearing her wedding band in photographs.

Gummer is a sculptor who was doing the same in the art world.

Though neither one has spoken about their decades-long marriage all that much, Streep told Vogue that the secret to their long marriage was “goodwill and willingness to bend — and to shut up every once in a while.”

She continued, “There’s no road map on how to raise a family: It’s always an enormous negotiation. But I have a holistic need to work and to have huge ties of love in my life. I can’t imagine eschewing one for the other.”
