Reba McEntire Seperated From Husband Narvel Blackstock

After 26 years of marriage, Reba McEntire and Narvel Blackstock are going their separate ways. The couple announced their split Monday, but they've actually been separated for months.

Reba released a statement on her website:

In a joint statement, Narvel Blackstock and Reba McEntire have announced that they have been separated for the past few months, after 26 years of marriage. Despite this being the end of their marriage, they continue to support each other. They have worked together for 35 years and will continue to do so. They have asked that you respect their privacy during this time.

Despite being separated for months, there's no word if the two have started divorce proceedings.

This is Reba's second marriage. She tied the knot in 1976 to national steer wrestling champion Charlie Battles. They divorced in 1987 and McEntire moved to Nashville, Tennessee.

McEntire married Blackstock in 1989 in a private ceremony on a boat in Lake Tahoe. They have one son together, Shelby.
