AceShowbiz - Ricky Martin and Jwan Yosef had apparently done experimenting in their relationship before calling it quits. The estranged spouses were reportedly in an "open" marriage for years before they decided to get a divorce.
"Like many couples, Ricky and Jwan had an open relationship for most of their marriage and this worked for them, until it didn't," a so-called pal tells Daily Mail. They eventually "fell out of love" after enjoying an "open relationship" for years, but infidelity was reportedly not a factor in their split.
"That being said, neither of them fell in love with someone else. Sex was something they engaged in together and separate with other partners," the source insists. "In the end they decided that it was best for them, their well being and for their kids if they end it amicably."
The informant goes on dishing that the couple has a "tight prenup" in place that will ensure Jwan is "taken care of forever." Of their split arrangement, the source spills, "Ricky will likely keep the house but Jwan will remain an important part of his life, and their kids lives, moving forward. He will be taken care of forever and will not have to worry about his finances, at least until their children are all adults. Ricky knows the value of him being a father in their kids lives."
Ricky and Jwan announced in a joint statement on Thursday, July 6 that they have decided to part ways, after six years of relationship. "We have decided to end our marriage with love, respect and dignity for our children and honoring what we have experienced as a couple all these wonderful years," they said in the statement.
They went on stating, "Our greatest desire now is to continue having a healthy family dynamic and a relationship centered on peace and friendship to continue the joint upbringing of our children, preserving the respect and love we have for each other." They ended the statement with a vow, "We are united in nurturing this new chapter of our lives."
Ricky and Jwan began dating in 2016. In 2018, the 51-year-old singer confirmed he had secretly married the 38-year-old artist. Ricky already had two children when he met Jwan. They then welcomed daughter Lucia in 2018 and son Renn in 2019.
