Donald Trump Jr's wife Vanessa files for divorce

Trump Jr and Vanessa Trump married in November 2005. The two met in 2003 when Donald Trump introduced them at a fashion show.

Donald Trump Jr. and his wife Vanessa Trump are separating as the latter filed for a divorce to formally end their 12-year marriage.

Reports say that Vanessa has filed an "uncontested" divorce in a state Supreme Court which means she would not be contesting for either custody of the couple's five children or their assets.

"After 12 years of marriage, we have decided to go our separate ways..We will always have tremendous respect for each other and our families. We have five beautiful children together and they remain our top priority. We ask for your privacy during this time," reports quoted the couple as saying in a statement.

The White House declined to comment on the reports and referred questions to the Trump Organization.

Trump Jr. was born on December 31, 1977, in Manhattan, New York City, to Ivana and Donald Trump. He has two younger siblings, Ivanka and Eric.
