Brandon Routh, known for his role in Superman Returns, has reached a divorce settlement with his former spouse, Courtney Ford, just weeks after she initiated the proceedings in Los Angeles. According to a report by In Touch, the couple notified the court of their mutual decision to separate this week. Courtney officially filed for divorce on January 8.

About the divorce

The report indicates that Courtney has referenced "irreconcilable differences" as the basis for their separation. The couple married in November 2007 in Santa Barbara and have a 12-year-old son named Leo. Courtney has requested the court to award her spousal support while seeking to prevent Brandon from receiving any financial assistance. Brandon Routh has consented to these conditions and acknowledged the existence of "irreconcilable differences."

Brandon will be responsible for child support payments; however, the specifics regarding the amounts for both child support and spousal support have not been disclosed.

Official statement

The two individuals utilized Instagram to issue a joint announcement regarding their decision to separate. “To all who have shown us love and support, we wish to share some personal news. After 21 years together and 17 years of marriage, we have chosen to embark on a new journey, entering this next chapter of our lives as friends and co-parents. We will always support one another as we navigate this unpredictable journey called life. Our son remains, and will always be our utmost priority, and we appreciate your understanding as we manage this transition. With love and gratitude, B & C.”

In her caption, Courtney addressed the troubling situation caused by the wildfires in Los Angeles, stating: “Yesterday, our focus was on gathering our go-bags and evacuating. It seems absurd to share this statement while the fires continue to rage, but an online publication released our news before we had the chance. We are safe, yet in a state of shock and mourning for our friends who have lost their homes and businesses. Our hearts ache for our community that has been devastated by the ongoing fires. We love you, Los Angeles.”
