“Djimon Hounsou and Kimora Lee Simmons have officially separated after 5½ years,” the actor’s rep told PEOPLE. ”Though never married, they have one child together, Kenzo Lee Hounsou, who is 3½ years old.”

Simmons, who is most well known for her Baby Phat clothing line, talked about the divorce on Twitter. ”There have been quite a few hurtful rumors circulating. The truth is Djimon + I have been separated for some time. We have remained happy, loving, co-parenting friends + family. We all have much to be thankful for.”

The fashion designer was previously married to Russell Simmons, whom she has two daughters with.
