The news of former NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio and his wife Chirlane McCray's decision to separate is doing rounds on the internet. Bill and Chirlane made their separation public on Wednesday, July 5, 2023. They gave an exclusive interview to The New York Times where they said that they are going for a trial separation and are looking forward to dating other people.

They added that for now, they are now seeking a divorce.

It is worth noting that they have been married for 29 years. They got married in 1994 and are parents to two children - Chiara, 28, and Dante, 25.

In the interview, Bill de Blasio opened up about their decision:

"You can feel when things are off, and you don’t want to live that way. I can look back now and say, here were these inflection points where we should have been saying something to each other. And I think one of the things I should have said more is: Are you happy? What will make you happy? What’s missing in your life?"

Chirlane McCray added that one just cannot fake it.

The couple also revealed that they made this decision two months ago when they had a conversation about why they are not "lovey-dovey anymore."
