It certainly isn’t third time lucky in love for Frasier star Kelsey Grammer.
The star is splitting from his wife of nearly 13 years, Camille Donatacci, confirming the news today on his Twitter account.
‘Hello everyone thank you for ur support and yes it’s true Camille and I
are divorcing. I ask U 2 respect our privacy,’ Grammer’s message said.
As they were: Kelsey Grammer and wife Camille Donatacci were last photographed at the Tony awards in New York on June 13
Donatacci, a former playboy model, filed for divorce from Grammer in a
Los Angeles court today citing irreconcilable differences.
She is seeking primary physical custody of their daughter Mason, eight, and five-year-old son Jude, as well as spousal support.
The couple married in 1997 and their two children were born via a
surrogate mother.

Grammer, 55, is currently appearing on Broadway in
play La Cage Aux Folles and was nominated for a Tony award for the role.
The couple were last pictured together at the New York awards ceremony earlier this month.
Meanwhile, Donatacci, 41, is rumored to
be starring on Bravo’s upcoming reality show, Real Housewives of Beverly
Hills.
Grammer has two other children from previous
relationships.
