The news was announced jointly by the couple through Spitzer’s spokesperson Lisa Linden.
“We regret that our marital relationship has come to an end and we have agreed not to make any other public statement on this subject,” read the announcement.
The split comes on the heels of a report on Sunday in The New York Post’s Page Six that the former candidate for New York City Comptroller was seen at the apartment of Lis Smith, his former spokesperson who is now the communications director for mayor-elect Bill de Blasio.
