Christina Aguilera has confirmed that she has parted ways with her husband of five years, Jordan Bratman.
Despite the couple's attempts to save their marriage by taking a 'make or break' summer holiday to Italy, Aguilera and Jordan have decided to end their eight year relationship.
A source told a US magazine: "They were very much in love. But over the last six months it became clear they were more like friends than husband and wife."
"Christina even proposed their August trip to Italy to rekindle their relationship but it didn’t help."
The couple, who have a two-year old son Max, have reportedly not discussed a divorce yet but whatever happens, they will be putting their child first.
The friend added: "He is their main concern. Christina is doing her best to be a great mom. She has a lot to juggle but she’s learning how to make it work and balance it all."
The 29-year old singer has since released a statement regarding their break-up, confirming: "Although Jordan and I are separated, our commitment to our son Max remains as strong as ever,"
