âEveryone knows that when you say the words separation, that insinuates a divorce,â said Monique during an hour-long stream on her YouTube channel. âAre Chris and I getting a divorce? No! We arenât getting a divorce. Are we going our separate ways? Absolutely not, nobody said that.â
Oh, but she wasnât done.
âHave we filed a legal separation? No. Have we filed for divorce? No. Is there any document that proves any divorce filings? No. Have we separated to the extent of breaking up? No.â
Yep, thereâs more.
âWe have multiple homes, we decided that we would spend some nights apart so we can give each other space, while weâre on our counseling journey,â she added. âWeâre focusing on ourselves, weâve been eating right, weâve actually been communicating better than we have been for a very long time. [âŠ]
âWe are most definitely still together, we havenât given up on our marriage, we didnât break up and we are not looking to divorce,â added Monique. âWe are simply trying to be better.â
The former couple, who wed in 2012 share three children: sons Christopher and Chase, plus daughter Milani.
PEOPLE notes that they havenât appeared on each otherâs respective Instagram grids since December 2022.
