Shemar MooreandJesiree Dizonhave gone their separate ways.

The couple recently split after nearly five years together, PEOPLE can confirm.TMZwas the first to report the news.

“They are loving friends and co-parents and always will be,” a source tells PEOPLE of the breakup.

In November 2024,Moore spoke exclusively to PEOPLEabout his relationship with Dizon, saying although the actress was his “partner” and a “dope-ass mama,” he did not see marriage in the cards for them.

“I didn’t have a good role model of marriage in my life. Not my mother, not my father. Nobody close to me,” he said at the time, adding that he often asks himself, “‘Who made that rule?’ ”

For Moore, the idea of appreciating the moment was especially appealing.

“To me, it’s just like tomorrow’s not guaranteed, but Jesiree, I’ll give you everything I got today and tomorrow. She is my partner. She is the mother of Frankie. Frankie has a dope-ass mama, and I’m going to try to be a dope-ass daddy. And we going to do that until God calls my name,” theSonic the Hedgehog 3actor added.

The two have often given glimpses into their life with Frankie, and Shemar recently credited the toddler with saving his life.

“That girl truly has given me purpose.She saved my life,” theCriminal Mindsactor continued of his youngest child.
