Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez are divorcing after two years of marriage.

“It is with a heavy heart that we have come to the decision to divorce,” the couple said in a joint statement to People. “We move forward with love and respect for one another and the shared focus of what is best for our son. We wish each other nothing but happiness in life and we hope that you respect our and, most importantly, our children’s privacy as we go through this difficult period."

There doesn’t appear to be a specific incident that prompted the divorce, though the couple’s two year marriage has been peppered with legal troubles. Just last week, an employee at LAX airport sued Berry and Martinez for $5 million dollars, after Martinez allegedly hit him with a baby’s car seat.

There is also, of course, the Thanksgiving Day brawl of 2012, in which Martinez got into a nasty fight with Berry’s ex, Gabriel Aubry, after he came to drop their daughter Nahla off at Berry and Martinez’s home. Both Martinez and Aubry had to go to the hospital after the fight and Aubry was issued a restraining order after the fight.

This will be the third divorce for Berry; after her second, in 2007, Berry said she would “never, never get married again.”

There is no word on a custody arrangement for the couple’s 2-year-old son, Maceo-Robert, but the couple reportedly does have a prenup.
