The couple were on holiday with their children Harper, eight, and Ford, six, when Covid cases began to rise in the US, so they decided not to return to Los Angeles but instead go into quarantine in the Cayman Islands with Armie’s father and stepmother.

She added, “Marriage is always going to be hard, and like any relationship you go through a process. Especially when you throw success and fame into the mix; it just keeps getting bigger…
