After ten years of apparent marital bliss, actor Taye Diggs and actress Idine Menzel announced their impending divorce on December 11, 2013. Although rumors suggest that infidelity is the cause of the couple's separation, these rumors have not been confirmed.
Diggs, best known for his roles in films such as "The Best Man", "How Stella Got Her Groove Back" and "Equilibrium", met Menzel, who is best known for her Tony Award winning role in "Wicked" in the mid 90's as costars in the Broadway musical "Rent". After years of dating, the couple wed in 2003 and later welcomed their son Walker into their family in September 2009.
According to representatives for the couple, "Idina Menzel and Taye Diggs have jointly decided to separate at this time. Their primary focus and concern is for their son." Other than the statement released by the couple's representative, not many details regarding the couple's split have been released. However, seeing that it is apparent that their 4 year old son is extremely important to both parents, a custody battle may ensue. Hopefully, for the sake of their son Walker, both Diggs and Menzel will respectfully cooperate in determining the best custody arrangement for their son and work together to swiftly resolve their divorce and to be loving and effective co-parents.
