Keri Russell and Shane Deary separate

Keri Russell's publicist says the U.S. actress and her husband, carpenter Shane Deary, have separated after nearly seven years of marriage. "They have been separated since early summer," the actress' representative told People.com Thursday. "The separation is amicable and their focus is on their children." No reason for the breakup was given. The news comes a day after the New York Post reported Russell woke up to find two burglars in her Brooklyn house. A man and a woman were subsequently arrested for trying to steal a computer and other items from Russell's brownstone. Russell and Deary have a 6-year-old son and 23-month-old daughter together.
