Shannon Elizabeth has broken her silence on her split from her husband Simon Borchert.
âIâve been separated since September of last year, and this has been a thoughtful, ongoing process-not something that happened in the past few days,â Elizabeth, 52, told Us Weekly via a statement on Thursday, April 16. âThe meaningful pieces are already behind me, and only the formalities remain.â
She added, âThis is a new chapter for me, and itâs one Iâm genuinely excited about. I feel stronger, clearer, and happier than I have in a very long time.â
Us can confirm that Elizabeth quietly filed for divorce from Borchert prior to announcing she was joining OnlyFans earlier this week.
Elizabeth met Borchert, a conservation specialist from South Africa, in 2015 before exchanging vows in 2021.
The American Pie star made headlines this week when she announced she is joining OnlyFans, the subscription-based website most widely known for its creatorsâ adult-only content.
âIâm choosing OnlyFans because it allows me to connect directly with my audience, create on my own terms, and just be free,â Elizabeth told People on Wednesday, April 15. âI really do think this is the future.â
The actress said she was inspired to launch her OnlyFans page as it meant she was taking back the power over her career that was traditionally in the hands of others.
âIâve spent my entire career working in Hollywood, where other people controlled the narrative and the outcome of my career,â Elizabeth told the outlet. âThis new chapter is about changing that, showing off a more sexy side no one has seen, and being closer to my fans.â
Fans are able to subscribe to her OnlyFans page currently, where she describes herself as an âactress,â âstoryteller,â and âa little mischievous.â
âWelcome to my little corner of the internet!â she teased in her bio. âHere youâll find the side of me that doesnât make it into moviesâmore playful, spontaneous, and completely unscripted.â
Shannon further hinted of what to expect from the content sheâll create on the platform.
âThink: behind-the-scenes moments, exclusive photos & videos, candid glimpses of my life, chatting with me directly,â she wrote.
She then teased, âIf youâve ever been curious what Iâm really like⊠Youâre about to find out.â
Prior to confirming her separation from Borchert, Shannon seemingly hinted she was embarking on new life chapter via a cryptic Instagram post.
âThereâs something about the ocean that resets everything â slows the noise, softens the edges, and brings you right back to what matters,â the actress wrote alongside a photo of her with her dog on Wednesday, April 15. âGrateful for these quiet moments, sandy paws, and unconditional love. đâš.â
