“After much thought and with great sadness, we have decided to end our marriage. We continue to care and have respect for one another and share eternal love for our daughter and her well-being,” the couple said in a statement to TMZ. “We ask for personal privacy for ourselves and our daughter as we navigate these new steps as a family.“

Edmonds and Pantenburg got hitched back in 2014 and share one daughter, 12-year-old Peyton Nicole.

It’s unclear what led to the split. Babyface was previously married to Tracey Edmonds from 1992 to 2005 … and they share two sons, Brandon and Dylan.
