Bee Shaffer and her husband, Francesco Carrozzini, have called it quits eight years after tying the knot.
Shaffer, 38, and Carrozzini, 43, confirmed the split via a joint statement to Page Six on Friday, May 15.
“After 10 wonderful years together, we have decided to separate,” the statement read.
The pair, who share son Oliver, 4, insisted they remain determined to coparent amicably amid their separation.
“Although our career paths led us in different directions, we remain the very best of friends and devoted, committed parents to our son,” they continued. “This is the only statement we will make, and we respectfully ask for privacy.”
Us Weekly has reached out to the couple’s representatives for comment.
Shaffer, who is the daughter of fashion media mogul, Anna Wintour, married Carrozzini, the son of late Vogue Italia editor Franca Sozzani, in July 2018.
The couple exchanged vows in front of 150 people in an intimate celebration at Wintour’s home in Mastic, New York. Guests’ phones were reportedly confiscated at the event to ensure privacy and a social media ban was enforced. Shaffer and Carrozzini also had a second celebration in Portofino, Italy.
The breakup news comes less than two weeks after Shaffer and Carrozzini attended the Meta Gala together.
Shaffer and Carrozzini were photographed together at the fashion event on May 4. In photos taken at the time, Shaffer was still wearing her wedding band.
Shaffer was first linked to Carrozzini in October 2016. She attended an NYC screening — cohosted by Wintour — of his documentary, Franca: Chaos & Creation. The couple announced their engagement the following year.
While Shaffer and Carrozzini have been relatively low-key about their relationship over the years, they’ve occasionally posted about one another via their Instagram accounts.
“Taming a stallion isn’t as hard as they say. Happy birthday @francescocarrozzini, love you the most!” Shaffer wrote alongside a candid photo of Carrozzini cooking in September 2017.
A year later, Shaffer shared a photo of the couple cozying up together and joked, “At your birthday two years ago when I thought this was just a fling… love you FC.”
For his part, Carrozzini shared a loved-up tribute to Shaffer alongside a selfie of the couple, indicating his hope for a long-lasting future together.
“Long road ahead my valentine ❤️ @beecarrozzini,” he captioned a post in February 2020.
Shaffer’s last Instagram post featuring Carrozzini was uploaded in March 2024, while Carrozzini hasn’t posted a photo of Shaffer since May 2022.
