Laura Prepon and Ben Foster part ways after six years of marriage

After eight years together, including six years of marriage, Laura Prepon and Ben Foster have decided to end their relationship. The couple, who met as teenagers but didn’t start dating until 2016, began their journey as a family when they welcomed a daughter in August 2017. They tied the knot in June 2018 and, two years later, expanded their family with the arrival of their son in February 2020.


Ben recently filed for divorce, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason behind their separation. Legal documents reportedly indicate that the official date of their separation was September 9. The couple had a prenuptial agreement, and Ben has requested that it be upheld as they finalize their divorce arrangements.

According to Just Jared, Ben is currently residing in Los Angeles, while Laura has moved to Tennessee. Observers have noted that Laura is no longer wearing her wedding ring, adding to the signs that the couple is moving forward separately.

The news of their split comes amid a year that has seen several high-profile celebrity breakups. Despite the end of their marriage, Laura and Ben's connection spans decades, from their initial meeting in their youth to their time raising a family together. They have yet to share any public statements about the split or their plans moving forward with co-parenting.
