“Pilar and I have decided to end our marriage and move on to the next phase of our individual lives with mutual respect. We are friends and our top priority has and will continue to be the well-being of our children.”

“We arrived at this decision prayerfully and carefully in order to be able to pursue what is in both of our best personal interests.”
