Elliot Page, and their spouse of three years, Emma Portner, have issued a joint statement to announce their plans to end their relationship after three years of marriage.
"After much thought and careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to divorce following our separation last summer," the couple said in a statement obtained by ABC News. "We have the utmost respect for each other and remain close friends."

Last month, Page declared that their name was Elliot and they are trans.
"I feel lucky to be writing this. To be here. To have arrived at this place in my life," Page wrote at the time. "I can't begin to express how remarkable it feels to finally love who I am enough to pursue my authentic self."
"I love that I am trans. And I love that I am queer. And the more I hold myself close and fully embrace who I am, the more I dream, the more my heart grows and the more I thrive," they continued. "To all trans people who deal with harassment, self-loathing, abuse, and the threat of violence every day: I see you, I love you and I will do everything I can to change this world for the better."
