Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Wednesday said that he and his wife Sophie were separating and had signed a legal agreement. “They have worked to ensure that all legal and ethical steps with regards to their decision to separate have been taken, and will continue to do so moving forward,” Trudeau’s office said in a statement on Wednesday.
Trudeau and Sophie were married in May 2005. They have three children. “They remain a close family and Sophie and the Prime Minister are focused on raising their kids in a safe, loving and collaborative environment,” the statement said. “The family will be together on vacation, beginning next week.”
