Sarah Silverman and Michael Sheen have ended their four-year relationship.
The American-Jewish comedienne and actress took to Twitter on Monday to announce they had “consciously uncoupled”.
Silverman, 47, who is best known for her roles in School Of Rock and A Million Ways To Die In The West, told her followers: “The great @michaelsheen & I consciously uncoupled over Christmas.
“I mean, not “over Christmas” – like that wasn’t the fight that ended it. No fight.
“We just live in different countries & it got hard. Felt we should just tell y’all so u stop askin, “How’s Michael/How’s Sarah?”
Silverman lives in Los Angeles, while 49-year-old Welsh actor Sheen lives in the UK. They met while filming Showtime’s Master of Sex in 2014.
