After four years of marriage, Natalie Imbruglia and Silverchair frontman Daniel Johns decided to call it quits. The couple issued a joint statement last week, which claimed they grew apart due to work demands.

“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. We have issued this statement to set the record straight and to eliminate any need for speculation.

“We will not be making any further public statements whatsoever in regard to this very private matter and politely ask that people respect our sincere wishes in this regard.”

Natalie and Daniel met at a party in 1999, and after dating long-distance for four years, married on New Year’s Eve in a star-studded beach-side ceremony in Queensland, Australia.
