It's official: Supermodel and "Project Runway" host Heidi Klum and singer Seal are officially separating after seven years together.

TMZ first reported on Saturday that Klum was going to file for divorce as early as this week. On Sunday night, the pair confirmed the split in a statement to People.

"While we have enjoyed seven very loving, loyal and happy years of marriage, after much soul-searching we have decided to separate," the pair told the magazine. 

"We have had the deepest respect for one another throughout our relationship and continue to love each other very much, but we have grown apart. This is an amicable process and protecting the well-being of our children remains our top priority, especially during this time of transition."

Klum and Seal have three biological children together, and the singer adopted the model's eldest daughter, Leni, from a previous relationship.

"They've had a very rough road lately," a friend of the couple told Us Weekly on Saturday. "They're either madly in love or having  crazy fights."
