We still can’t believe Sara Gilbert and Linda Perry are officially over! The Talk cocreator and her longtime wife called it quits in December 2019, Closer Weekly confirmed at the time. The Roseanne alum filed paperwork for legal separation with minor children and cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason

Fans of the longtime lovebirds — who tied the knot in 2014 and share 4-year-old son Rhodes — were shocked by the news of their divorce considering the ex-couple was spotted out on a family lunch date with their blended brood barely a week before the Conners star filed.

Despite the end of their marriage, Sara and Linda, 54, are doing everything they can to make this as easy as possible for themselves and their family. A source close to the former couple told Closer Weekly how they’re managing to ‘be separated” while continuing to remain “on good terms.”

“They were married for five years and they share their son Rhodes. They don’t hate each other and are still communicating,” the insider exclusively shared in January 2019. “Sara’s two other kids, Levi and Sawyer are teenagers, but they like Linda and considered her their stepmom. All three kids get along and Sara and Linda are committed to making sure Rhodes, who’s five, stays close to his older siblings.”

“Unfortunately, the marriage didn’t work out, but they still have to coparent Rhodes and there are no plans to avoid each other,” the insider continued.

Although Sara and Linda are no longer together, we’re happy to see they’re doing whatever they can to remain amicable.
