Tuesday, June 3, 2025 - Comedian Fortune Feimster has publicly addressed her separation from estranged wife Jacquelyn Smith, weeks after initial reports of their breakup surfaced.
In a statement shared on Instagram on Monday, June 2,
Feimster confirmed that the couple made the difficult decision to end their
marriage some time ago. She revealed that they had been separated for a while
but chose to keep it private while dealing with serious family health matters.
The announcement came in the form of a joint message signed
by both Feimster and Smith. The pair described the separation as amicable,
emphasizing that they are parting ways “with love,” and that they look back
fondly on their time together. They also expressed mutual well wishes for the
future.
News of the split first emerged in April when it was
reported that Feimster was preparing to file for divorce. However, neither
party has disclosed the specific reasons behind the breakup.
Feimster and Smith began dating in 2016, got engaged in
early 2018, and were married in a small ceremony in October 2020. Their
relationship had been a visible part of Feimster’s personal and public life,
with the comedian frequently expressing affection and admiration for Smith in
interviews and on social media.
While the marriage is coming to an end, the tone of the
couple’s announcement underscores their intention to maintain respect and
kindness throughout the process.
