“We are grateful for the years we’ve spent together and believe wholeheartedly that we did our best. We hope that we can pave the road ahead of us with all we’ve learned and with the love and respect we will always have for one another,” the statement concluded.
Last month, David praised his wife for her courage amid a highly publicized battle with Lyme disease.
“It’s no secret that Yolanda’s been sort of through the ringer the last four years,” he told ET at the Global Lyme Alliance Gala in New York City. “Yolanda has brought a lot of awareness to the disease and here we are tonight.”
“She’s going to beat the disease,” David, 65, continued. “And when we see nights like this, it really gives us hope that we’re going to nail it.”
