J.P. also noted the decision was mutual, writing, “Ashley and I have amicably decided to live our lives apart from one another.”

He also noted the differences between them, adding, “I think we’ve both come to realize that we are just two very different people, with very different personalities and perspectives, who just don’t see eye to eye on a lot life fundamentals, those which are the building blocks for a happy and healthy marriage.”
