According to court documents obtained by People magazine, the 57-year-old actor cited irreconcilable differences in his petition for divorce which he filed on Thursday.

Whitaker and Nash, 46, met while starring as onscreen lovers in the 1994 flim "Blown Away". They tied the knot two years later in a ceremony in Montego Bay, Jamaica, and welcomed two daughters together, Sonnet, 22, and True, 20.

 

Whitaker is also dad to son Ocean, 28, from a previous marriage, while Nash has a 27-year-old daughter, Autumn, from a former relationship.
