UPDATE: One report claims Kate Winslet left Mendes because she was “bored” with him.

Oh what a difference a year makes.

Around this same time last year, actress Kate Winslet appeared to be on top of the world. The Oscar nominee was collecting an award for her role in The Reader while simultaneously being praised for her work in Revolutionary Road.

Today, it’s being announced that Kate and her husband - Road director Sam Mendes - have been apart since before her recent 82nd Annual Academy Awards appearance.

“Kate and Sam are saddened to announce that they separated earlier this year. The split is entirely amicable and is by mutual agreement. Both parties are fully committed to the future joint parenting of their children. They ask that the media respect the privacy of the family,” their lawyers said in a joint statement.

The two - married since 2003 - have a six-year-old son together. Winslet also has a nine-year-old daughter from her first marriage to Jim Threapleton.
