Meryl Streep and Don Gummer attend the 90th Annual Academy Awards in 2018.

Renowned actress Meryl Streep and her husband, sculptor Don Gummer, have officially been living apart for over six years, as confirmed by Streep’s representative to People magazine. The couple, who tied the knot in 1978, celebrated their 45th wedding anniversary just last month.

Despite maintaining a relatively private personal life, the pair attended various public events together over the years. In 2012, Streep honored Gummer during her acceptance speech for the Best Actress Oscar, expressing gratitude for the love and support he had provided.

Together, Streep and Gummer raised four children, including a son named Henry and three daughters, Mamie, Grace, and Louisa. Reflecting on family life in a 2002 interview with Vogue, Streep emphasized the challenges and negotiations inherent in raising a family while nurturing her professional ambitions.

As the news of their separation spreads, the public continues to acknowledge the couple’s enduring legacy in both the entertainment and art worlds, wishing them well as they embark on their separate journeys.
