US television star Larry David and his activist wife, Laurie, have separated after 14 years of marriage.
The split was "very amicable and … they're going to continue to raise their two (daughters) together as friends," spokeswoman Heather Lylis said in New York yesterday.
David, 59, is the star and creator of the HBO hit comedy 'Curb Your Enthusiasm', which chronicles the always strange daily doings of its curmudgeonly centrepiece, a version of Larry David himself.
The character's much put-upon wife is played by Cheryl Hines.
David also co-created the NBC classic Seinfeld.
Laurie David produced 'An Inconvenient Truth', the global-warming movie that won an Oscar for best documentary.
In April, she accompanied singer Sheryl Crow on a college tour to raise awareness about climate change.
