Jewel Ty Murray divorce news, unlike other celebrity splits, did not gradually form. There have also been no previous issues that the former married couple faced before news of the Jewel Ty Murray divorce broke out. The report was just announced through a blog post from the talented singer, plain and simple.

The amicable Jewel Ty Murray divorce came after nearly six years of marriage. According to E! News, the 40-year-old singer married the rodeo pro back in Aug. 2008 after a 10-year-relationship.

The Huffington Post reports that the amicable split was announced on the mother-of-one's official website earlier today.

Jewel Ty Murray divorce news was made known to the public on Jul. 2 through a written blog post on Jewel's website.

Jewel wrote of her split with former husband Ty Murray, 'My husband, friend and partner of 16 years and I have decided to get a divorce. Ty and I have always tried to live the most authentic life possible, and we wanted our separation as husband and wife to be nothing less loving than the way we came together. For some time we have been engaged in a private and difficult, but thoughtful and tender undoing of ourselves. Allowing ourselves the time and space to redefine what we are to each other with love rather than malice.'

To her fans, Jewel assured that the Jewel Ty Murray divorce was completely amicable. She said, 'We have no desire to damage ourselves and each other in the process. Who better than each other to bear witness to the heart ache of redefining our family? And who better as ally, while we learn to redraw ourselves in whatever new shape we find as separate people who are still striving to be the best versions of ourselves-as humans and as parents. She added, 'Oddly the very thing that Ty and I sought in coming together is the very thing we seek in separating. We both value growth. And growth became tragically and undeniably stifled as a couple, and we believe we can find it again in setting each other free. We truly believe we can find greater happiness apart than together, and this is why we are taking the enormous and heartbreaking step of divorce.'

According to singer, Jewel Ty Murray divorce does not stop both her and her ex-husband's commitment towards raising their almost three-year-old son, Kase.

Jewel emphasized this commitment despite the Jewel Ty Murray divorce by saying that she and 44-year-old ex Murray's dedication to their 'son is unwavering and we are both committed to being the best partners in raising our son.'

E! News reports that Kase will be turning three on Jul. 11.

 Jewel also wrote of the Jewel Ty Murray divorce, 'Due to the spirit in which we have gone about this separation, we trust we can remain dear friends who hold each other in high esteem, which is so important to us as parents-as we wish only what is best for our son.'

Jewel Ty Murray divorce comes as a shock to fans and supporters of the couple as they previously dated for 10 years before finally tying the knot in Aug. 2008 in the Bahamas.
