ROBIN THICKE AND PAULA PATTON SEPARATE
Soul singer Robin Thicke and his actress wife Paula Patton have separated after nine years of marriage.
The "Blurred Lines" hitmaker began dating Patton when he was 14 and the high school sweethearts
welcomed their first child, son Julian, in April, 2010.
However, despite cuddling up for the cameras at the Grammy Awards just last month, the couple has decided to call it quits.
A statement issued to People reads: "We will always love each other and be best friends, however, we have mutually decided to separate at this time."
Thicke and Patton wed in 2005.
The couple's relationship has come under scrutiny in recent months after Thicke was photographed with socialite Lana Scolaro at a post-MTV Video Music Awards party in New York last September.
