Arcade Fire’s Win Butler and Régine Chassagne have announced that they have ended their romantic relationship via an Instagram post on the band’s account.
The post — which has comments turned off — reads:
After a long and loving marriage, Win & Régine have decided to separate.
They continue to love, admire and support each other as they co-parent their son.
Their work in Haiti with KANPE continues and their bond as creative soulmates will endure, as will Arcade Fire.
The band send their love and look forward to seeing you all on tour soon.
Naturally, there was no mention of the allegations of sexual misconduct levelled against Butler in recent years, or whether they played a role in the couple’s separation.
The band were on tour behind latest album Pink Elephant earlier this year.
