"Blurred Lines" singer Robin Thicke and his actress wife Paula Patton announced Monday that they are ending their marriage after nearly 10 years, Reuters reported.

"We will always love each other and be best friends, however, we have mutually decided to separate at this time," the couple said in a statement, according to People.

Thicke and Patton were childhood sweethearts; they met when they were teenagers and married in 2005.  In 2010 they welcomed their son, Julian Fuego.

The announcement comes on the heels of several reports the 36-year-old crooner flirted behind the back of his 38-year-old actress wife.

Since his summer hit, Thicke has been caught in a series of bad situations, The Daily Mail reported. This includes his raunchy MTV Video Music Awards performance last year with Miley Cyrus.

Thicke, the 36-year-old son of actor Alan Thicke of the television series "Growing Pains," was nominated for three 2014 Grammy awards, including record of the year for "Blurred Lines."

Patton, 38, appeared with actors Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg in the 2013 action comedy "2 Guns" and also stars in this year's romantic comedy "About Last Night."
