On their Instagram posts, they have now officially announced that they have parted ways. Both the actor shared the same message for fans and media.
The statement read, "To all our well wishers. After much deliberation and thought Chay and I have decided to part ways as husband and wife to pursue our own paths. We are fortunate to have a friendship of over a decade that was the very core of our relationship which we believe will always hold a special bond between us. We request our fans, well wishers and the media to support us during this difficult time and give us the privacy we need to move on. Thanking you for your support."

The actress was recently questioned by a media person about the rumours of her separation from husband Naga Chaitanya. She was reportedly walking towards a temple, surrounded by security guards, when a reporter asked the truth behind these reports.
Agitated, Samantha replied in Telugu: "Gudiki vachanu. Buddhi unda (I have come to a temple. Don't you have any sense?)"
The rumours around trouble in Samantha and Chaitanya's marriage started when she dropped the surname from her Twitter profile and renamed it as 'S'.
However, the couple has been rooting for each other's work on social media with full gusto.
When Chaitanya posted a picture with Aamir Khan from the sets of his debut Hindi film 'Laal Singh Chadha', Samantha reposted it and gave it a shout out.
More recently, she retweeted the trailer of Chaitanya's upcoming film 'Love Story' and called it a winner. Chaitanya too replied to the compliment from his wife and wrote: "Thanks Sam".
