Now that everyone has seen him with his naked girlfriend, Balthazar Getty has taken the unnecessary step of addressing the media.

The Brothers & Sisters star has been the subject of gossip ever since he was linked to actress Sienna Miller. Getty, a married father of four, recently welcomed a new daughter just last October.

In a statement, the 33-year-old said:

“The breakdown of a marriage is a very difficult and painful experience especially when children are involved. In light of the fact that many pictures have surfaced in print and on the Internet which has caused myself and my family great embarrassment, I felt it necessary to at least acknowledge publicly that yes indeed my wife and I have separated and I will not be commenting any further.”

That’s okay, Balthazar. As long as we have your pictures telling the story, we don’t need you to comment further.
