The couple, who have two daughters together, have been living in the same house despite persistent talk of a split seeming imminent for several weeks. “Kimora and I will remain committed parents and caring friends with great love and admiration for each other,” Simmons said in a statement to the Associated Press. “We will also continue to work side by side on a daily basis as partners in all of our businesses.”
