A source close to the pair told PEOPLE that Qualley and Antonoff are approaching the divorce together. “Jack and Margaret are filing for divorce jointly,” the source said. “This is a mutual decision.”

According to the insider, the divorce is uncontested and mutually agreed upon. The source also addressed why the paperwork would identify one person as the plaintiff and the other as the defendant, explaining that those designations are required in New York State.

Despite the end of their romantic relationship, the insider insisted that their affection for each other remains. “They share a deep affinity and love for one another, and though their romantic partnership is ending, they will absolutely be lifelong friends.”

Qualley and Antonoff began dating in 2021 and married in August 2023. They separated earlier this year, before reaching their third wedding anniversary.

PEOPLE first reported the separation on July 8. Two days later, Qualley’s representative confirmed the breakup while pushing back against speculation about what happened. “The narratives running in the press about Margaret and Jack are categorically untrue. There are no trust issues. There was no infidelity or anything outside of respect and partnership in this relationship,” the statement began.

The representative also challenged the credibility of people offering accounts of the marriage. “They have deep love and care for one another,” the statement continued. “There are only two people in this marriage, and the sources who are talking to the press and commenting on their relationship are not people who know them. Please respect their privacy.”

Neither that statement nor the latest account of the divorce offered a specific reason for the separation. Both emphasized continued care between the former couple.

While the divorce moves forward, Antonoff has been facing another consequence of the split: performing music written during their relationship. His band, Bleachers, released “Everyone for Ten Minutes” in May, with several tracks inspired by his romance with Qualley.

In an October 25 interview with The Guardian, Antonoff explained that he had considered what it would mean to keep those songs in the setlist after their separation. “Songs which I wrote recently, I obviously was really worried about this specific thing,” he said.

He ultimately decided that continuing to perform them was part of the honesty he owes his audience. The emotions behind the music were real when he wrote it, even if his circumstances have since changed. The Grammy-winning producer acknowledged that “anyone could relate to the terrible sadness and pain, but there’s a great power to it also.”

Rather than treating those tracks as something to avoid, Antonoff described finding meaning in sharing them with listeners who understand their history. “It’s actually been really beautiful,” he said.

“I mean, for people to come together, to know what I write a song about, to know how that must feel for me now, to know what that song means to you as an audience member, to just hold it all and sort of celebrate,” he added.

The Bleachers frontman made clear that he has no interest in distancing himself from the feelings he previously put into his work. “I don’t rewrite the past, I have no shame about the things I’ve said,” he explained.

“My life has been dedicated to making it impossible for me to rewrite the past, because I’m standing there, singing about how I felt during the good times, so when the bad times hit I can’t look myself in the mirror and pretend that those times didn’t exist,” he said.

As he and Qualley take the next step toward ending their marriage, Antonoff’s approach to the music remains rooted in acknowledging what came before. “I would rather live through something publicly than even escape it privately.”
