Singer-songwriter Christina Perri has filed for divorce from her husband Paul Costabile after seven years of marriage, court documents have revealed. The former couple, who wed in 2017, cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split and listed their date of separation as the same day as the filing. Perri, 39, has two children with Costabile: Carmella Stanley, 7, and Pixie Rose, 3, and has requested joint legal custody and physical custody of her daughters. The “Jar of Hearts” singer also asked that the court not award spousal support to Costabile, citing a prenuptial agreement signed by the pair in Dec. 2017. The couple’s journey to parenthood was marked by profound loss, with Perri previously sharing the heartbreaking stillbirth of their son in Nov. 2020, following a miscarriage earlier that year. They eventually welcomed their second daughter, Pixie, in 2022. Costabile initially announced his marriage to Perri on Instagram in 2017, calling the singer his “dream girl and best friend.” Representatives for both parties have yet to comment on the divorce proceedings.
