Filmmaker Tim Burton and Helena Bonham Carter have split after being together for 13 years.
"Tim Burton and Helena Bonham Carter separated amicably earlier this year and have continued to be friends and co-parent their children. We would ask that you respect their privacy and that of their children during this time," Burton's representative said in a statement, reports radaronline.com.
The former couple met in 2001 on the sets of the film "Planet of the Apes" and together, they have done several movies, including "Dark Shadows" and "Alice and Wonderland".
The former couple, who never married, have two children together - seven-year-old daughter, Nell, and 11-year-old son, Billy.
In October 2013, Burton was accused of cheating on Carter when photographs appeared of what appeared to be him kissing a mystery girl.
However, Carter's representative dismissed these photographs by saying: "This is absolute nonsense, the pictures were taken whilst they were out and the large group includes family, friends and work colleagues."
