*Country singer Jimmie Allen and his wife Alexis Gale are separating after two years of marriage. 

The breakup comes as the ex-couple is also expecting their third child, Page Six reports. Allen, 37, and Gale, 27, announced on Instagram Friday that they have called it quits.

“After much thought and reflection in recent months, Lex & I have made the decision to separate,” Allen wrote.

“As we navigate this life change, we can also share that we will be welcoming another child together later this year.”

Allen says his priority now is to ensure that their children are “healthy, happy and loved,” he wrote. 

The estranged couple shares two minor daughters, Naomi, 3, and Zara, 1, and Allen has an 8-year-old son from a previous relationship.

Allen said he and Gale “remain committed to co-parenting with love and respect for one another.”

As Page Six reports, Allen admitted in a 2021 interview that he “never wanted to get married” until he met Gale.

“I wanted to be a dad and do music, that’s it,” he explained to People at the time. “The whole husband thing was not something I ever wanted to do. But Alexis changed that. Now, I like it. It gives me some security.”

He added,  “She can’t just be like, ‘I’m done.’ Divorce is a lot of paperwork!”
