Drew, pictured with Frankie, has vowed to put all her energy into her children now.

The 41-year-old Blended star began dating her estranged husband in 2011 after being friends for years.

They married at her lavish Montecito, California estate in 2012.

Drew is said to have thought Will truly was the One, so the divorce comes as a blow.

When Drew and Will announced their separation, they put out a joint statement.

“Sadly our family is separating legally, although we do not feel this takes away from us being a family.”

“Divorce might make one feel like a failure, but eventually you start to find grace in the idea that life goes on. Our children are our universe and we look forward to living the rest of our lives with them as the first priority.”
