Imbruglia and Johns divorce

2008-01-07 by Jim | 7 Comments
SILVERCHAIR frontman Daniel Johns and his actress musician wife Natalie Imbruglia have ended their four-year marriage. The pair, who married near Port Douglas on New Year's Eve in 2003, cited distance and career demands for their decision to split.

"While we are very sad that our marriage has ended, we want to make it clear that our parting is amicable and we remain friends," the pair said in a joint statement last night. "This mutual decision has not been taken lightly or quickly.

"However, our career demands and our lives in different parts of the world have brought us to the point where unfortunately this difficult decision was necessary for both of us. We have simply grown apart through not being able to spend enough time together."

Imbruglia and Johns first met backstage at a Silverchair gig in London but sparks flew at an ARIA awards after-party at the Gazebo Hotel in 1999. When Johns was crippled with reactive arthritis in 2002 as he launched the Diorama album, Imbruglia took time out from shooting her feature film role in Johnny English to help nurse him back to health.

Both committed to making their marriage work despite pursuing individual careers and interests.

"I'd never let the distance or work get in the way of my marriage," Imbruglia said in a 2005 interview.

I'm all out of faith/This is how I feel/I'm cold and I'm ashamed/Lying naked on the floor...
