“They will continue to be seen together as a family, as their shared priority is, and always will be, raising their daughter with love, stability, and mutual respect,” a statement from representatives noted.
Although the breakup was described as amicable, sources say the two appeared tense during a recent lunch together at the Cala di Volpe resort in Porto Cervo, Italy.

Neither Perry nor Trudeau has responded to requests for comment, but that hasn’t stopped fans online from imagining the possibilities.
“Wow, as a Canadian, I couldn’t have imagined this, but now it makes sense, both were widely and publicly hated and mocked in recent years. Common ground,” one commenter joked.
“Two celebrities having dinner together doesn't mean something romantic is happening. They both are passionate about many political and social causes and likely have a friendship,” another wrote.
