Bruce and Kris Jenner have decided to split after 22 years of marriage.

"We are living separately and we are much happier this way," the pair exclusively told E! News.

"But we will always have much love and respect for each other. Even though we are separated, we will always remain best friends and, as always, our family will remain our number one priority."

The rumors have been circulating for months. In fact, Kris' own sister recently claimed this is an actual separation and Kris has started talking to divorce attorneys.

Last month, Bruce's son, Brody Jenner said the Keeping Up With the Kardashians stars are definitely living separate lives.

"I stay out of their business, but as far as I'm concerned, they haven't split up," Brody reportedly told the UK's Now Magazine. "Dad's been in Malibu -- he grew up out here -- and the press has made a big deal of it."
