Actor Frankie Muniz and wife Paige Price Muniz announce divorce after 10 years together

“Malcolm in the Middle” actor Frankie Muniz and his wife Paige Muniz are going their separate ways. 
They took to social media on July 1 to announce that they are divorcing after 10 years together and seven years of marriage. Frankie Muniz, 40, wrote that they’d made the decision after a “period of separation that we kept private. 
“After 10 beautiful years together, we’ve grown in ways that made us realize our relationship feels most natural and strong as a deep friendship and as co-parents,” he wrote in the caption. “We share an incredible son who remains the center of our world, and we’re both happier, stronger parents because of the love and growth we’ve shared.” 
He added that he was “endlessly grateful to Paige for everything she’s done for me and our family. She put her own dreams on hold so I could chase mine, and she was always my biggest supporter. That foundation of respect and friendship isn’t going anywhere.” 
Despite the divorce, the couple said they are “excited to keep building Muniz Racing together and to co-parent our boy with the same teamwork and love we’ve always had.” 
In 2023, more than a decade after a experiencing season-ending racing injuries, Muniz decided to pursue his dream of NASCAR racing full-throttle and announced his return to stock car racing in the ARCA Menards Series. He currently competes in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series. 
Though the divorce statement was initially shared alongside a video of the two of them dancing with their 5-year-old son, Mauz Mosley Muniz, the post was removed. 
They then shared the same statement in a new post that instead was accompanied by a photo of the family of three. 
“Frankie, I am so sorry that you felt the need to delete an old fun video of our family because people are so cruel to you,” Paige Muniz wrote in a comment. “Divorce is bad, sure – it’s not like we’re excited about it… but we’re two adults who know how to be on the same team. I can’t believe people could scrutinize that.” 
The two met in 2016 at a celebrity golf event where she was working as a presenter for a golf network, according to People magazine. They announced their engagement in 2018.
