Former "Friends" star Matt LeBlanc plans to file for divorce from his wife of nearly three years, Melissa, Access Hollywood has learned.
A rep for the actor released the following statement to Access:
"Melissa and Matt LeBlanc have decided to end their marriage of three years. The dissolution is amicable. They remain devoted parents and friends. For the sake of their family, they ask that their privacy be respected at this time."
According to reports, the couple split up in January, soon after LeBlanc's NBC sitcom "Joey" was pulled from the schedule.
Divorce papers were expected to be filed at Los Angeles Superior Court on Thursday.
The couple have a two-year-old daughter, Marina, and LeBlanc is stepfather to his wife's two older children from an earlier marriage, Tyler, 13, and Jacquelyn, 10.
LeBlanc, 38, and former model Melissa "Missie" McKnight, 41, were married in a romantic beachfront ceremony in Hawaii on May 3, 2003.
