"Despite 15 Years of Union: Famous Actor and Musician Duo Announces Split"

In a surprising turn of events, Dermot Mulroney, the renowned actor known for his roles in films like "My Best Friend's Wedding" and "The Family Stone", filed for divorce from his wife of 15 years, Prima Apollinaare, on June 23, 2023. The divorce filing cites irreconcilable differences.

Despite the separation, the couple's shared love for music remains strong. Apollinaare, a talented singer who has been performing since she was very little, considers music to be her heart. This shared passion was evident in their performances together, both at home and on television.

One memorable experience for both Mulroney and Apollinaare was their appearance on the Fox game show "We Are Family" in 2020. They performed karaoke together, with Apollinaare mentioning that singing on television was a particularly rewarding experience for her. The couple was accompanied by no publicly documented individuals during their time on the show, maintaining a private front.

Mulroney gushed about performing with Apollinaare in an interview with Entertainment Weekly. He spoke fondly of their shared love for music and the joy they found in their performances together. Apollinaare, too, expressed a desire to perform on "We Are Family" again.

The split between Mulroney and Apollinaare is reportedly amicable. In court documents, Mulroney requested joint physical and legal custody of their two children, Mabel Ray, 17, and Sally June, 15. No claims have been made regarding spousal support or denying it to Apollinaare. The couple used mediators instead of lawyers in the divorce process.

Mulroney was previously married to Catherine Keener from 1990 to 2007 and they have one son, Clyde Keener Mulroney, 26.

The couple's home is filled with instruments, including harps, guitars, ukulele, and pianos. They often spend time playing music together, a bond that remains strong even amidst the divorce proceedings. There are no reports of arguments over the children or money in the divorce proceedings.

As Mulroney and Apollinaare navigate this new chapter in their lives, their love for music continues to bring them together. Their performances, both past and future, serve as a testament to their shared passion and the enduring power of music.
