Well that's out of left field. I suppose that's a testament to how well they've done to keep their private life private.

An interesting historical parallel, Pierre Trudeau was the first PM to be divorced while in office.

I care about this as much as I care about the divorce of any other people I do not know. It is none of my business and it does not matter to me.

For his family's sake, I hope he chooses not to step down for the next election. Milhouse is going to run with this, and will not hesitate to fight dirty.

Why are comments even open on this article? They're just terrible tabloid trash.

It's sad, but I hope they're better off for it.

Maybe now Melania has again more reasons to leave her isolated apartment life.

Seemed like she didn't wanted him to run again, but he is definitely going.

I have to ask: who cares, and why should I?

I was not expecting this. Quite out of nowhere.

I heard rumors a few years ago that they were already separated. Weird that they're supposedly going on a family vacation right after announcing that they're separating.

I wonder if he and Melanie Joly will go public now.

You heard it here!

Wow that's unexpected

For what it's worth, a friend of mine that used to work in a chain of high-end hotels had the Trudeaus as guests, and she said that Sophie treated everyone like trash.
