Meryl Streep and her husband Don Gummer have been living separate lives for more than six years. Exclusivity is Page six and was confirmed by the actress’s representative in recent days in Spain at the Princess of Asturias Awards ceremony. One of the strongest couples in Hollywood has not been that way for a long time, as we recently found out from Will Smith and Jada Pinkett.
The 74-year-old three-time Oscar-winning actress and the 76-year-old sculptor have been separated for more than six years. Here’s a statement from Meryl Streep’s rep: “Don Gummer and Meryl Streep have been separated for over six years and although they will always care for each other, they have decided to live separately.“
The couple has already been seen together most recently at a formal event at the 2018 Oscars. Then, at the very beginning of her speech, while accepting the award, she said, “First I want to thank Don, because when you thank your husband at the end of a speech, the words are drowned out by the music. I want him to know that everything I value most in our lives was given to me by you.”
The couple’s long absence from public life left no room for gossip. given that the two have always maintained a private profile, living primarily on the east coast of the US, in Connecticut rather than California. At the Spanish awards, the actress, unaccompanied by her husband, was still wearing her wedding ring.
Streep met and married Gummer in 1978, shortly after the death of her then-boyfriend, actor John Cazale. Her brother would introduce them. The couple has four children: Henry Wolf 43 years old, works in the world of music and actress. Mamie Gummer 40, Grace Gummer37, e Louise Jacobson, 30, main character of the series “The Gilded Age”. They also have five grandchildren. Henry has two children with Tamryn Storm Hawker. Mamie has two children with her husband Mehar Sethi. Grace recently gave birth to her first child with her husband, producer Mark Ronson.

When Streep was asked the secret to her long marriage, she told Vogue in 2002: “Good will and a willingness to cave in and be quiet every now and then. There is no road map to how to start a family – it’s always a serious negotiation. But I have a holistic need for work, and there are great bonds of love in my life.”
However, the answer may lie in the couple’s real estate business. A loft in New York’s Tribeca neighborhood sold for $15.8 million in January 2020. Streep then purchased a $4 million home in Pasadena, California, in July of that year.
