We all knew that this might happen eventually, but it was the large elephant on the top of the table in the center of the room that no one dared speak of for fear of it actually coming true. Melissa Etheridge and Tammy Lynn Michaels have officially announced their split.
Rumblings of their possible split could be heard, felt and examined across the internet, but the official statement from Melissa’s representative was just formally released to the public and media outlets. Melissa and Tammy were married in Malibu back in 2003 and their nearly nine-year marriage produced twins Miller and Johnnie Rose in 2006. Melissa also has two children with ex-flame Julie Cypher.
Melissa was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2004 and was extremely public about her relationship with Tammy and, at the time, nothing seemed out of sorts in the least. However, that same love has now turned to loss with the announcement of their official split.
In a statement to People magazine, Melissa’s publicist stated, "Melissa and Tammy Etheridge are saddened to announce that they are now separated.” You can follow this developing story on SheWired for the latest information.
