Amanda Seyfried and Thomas Sadoski have confirmed the end of their nine-year marriage, revealing that they have been separated for some time and believe the decision has ultimately been the right one for their family. The actors announced the split in a joint statement to PEOPLE on September 15, 2026, emphasizing that despite the end of their marriage, their connection remains.
The couple said they had been separated “for a while” and described the arrangement as the right move for their “family unit.” They ended their statement with an unusually warm message: “We’ve got each other forever—and it’s GOOD.” Neither actor publicly provided a specific reason for the separation, leaving the couple’s own statement as the clearest account of their decision.
Amanda Seyfried and Thomas Sadoski’s Private Love Story
Amanda Seyfried and Sadoski first met in 2015 while performing together in the off-Broadway play The Way We Get By. They reunited later that year while filming The Last Word, where they played romantic interests, and their professional relationship eventually developed into a real-life romance. PEOPLE confirmed they were dating in March 2016.
The pair became engaged later in 2016 and quietly eloped in March 2017. Their daughter, Nina, was born shortly after their wedding, and they later welcomed their son, Thomas Jr., in September 2020. Over the years, the family largely avoided the intense spotlight that often follows celebrity relationships, instead maintaining a relatively private life on a farm in upstate New York.
Their relationship also included considerable professional and charitable support. Seyfried thanked Sadoski during her 2022 Emmy acceptance speech, while the two worked together in support of organizations helping children affected by conflict. In January 2026, Seyfried also spoke positively about Sadoski’s support for her career during a particularly busy period.
Thomas Sadoski and Amanda Seyfried Begin a Different Chapter
Thomas Sadoski and Seyfried have not described their separation as a hostile breakup. Instead, their joint statement emphasizes their continuing bond and their family connection. The actors share two children, making their decision one that extends beyond the end of their marital relationship.
The timing also highlights how private the couple has remained. PEOPLE reports that they had already been separated for some time before making the news public. Interestingly, Seyfried posted a photo of Sadoski on her Instagram Stories on September 15, the same day the separation became public, showing him posing with a gecko and calling him a “#reptiledad.”
That detail, combined with their statement about having each other “forever,” presents a picture of two people attempting to redefine their relationship rather than erase it. There has been no public explanation of what specifically led to the separation, and neither actor has suggested that the decision was prompted by a particular publicly known incident.
After nine years of marriage, two children and a relationship that was deliberately kept away from much of Hollywood’s glare, Seyfried and Sadoski are now entering a different chapter. Their marriage has ended, but their own words indicate that they intend to preserve the family connection and mutual support that has remained important throughout their years together.
