Fergie confirms split with hubby Josh Duhamel, says 'it was getting weird pretending to be together'

Singer Fergie has finally opened up on her separation with husband Josh Duhamel and said that it was quite difficult for them to pretend to be together.

Apparently, the couple had parted ways earlier this year after eight years of marriage. However, both Fergie and Josh chose to stay mum over their split so far.

Talking about the same Fergie told People magazine, "Honestly, it was just getting a little weird for us with all the romantic questions. Were great friends, we love each other so much, and it just got to the point where it was getting a little weird. There's no perfect time so we just decided to do it."

The singer is promoting her upcoming album, Double Dutchess, while her personal life has been making headlines.

Fergie, however, said that co-parenting their four-year- old son, Axl would not be a problem and that they needed privacy to adjust with the new order of things.

"We just wanted to get adjusted in private. (And Axls school has helped as) we have a co-op so Josh and I would walk there several times before the school season," she said.

The former couple recently confirmed their split the news in a joint statement.
