Actor Jason Biggs and Jenny Mollen divorcing after 18 years of marriage

Actor Jason Biggs and Jenny Mollen are divorcing after 18 years of marriage. Page Six confirmed the split last week. A source told the Daily Mail that Biggs' recent weight loss and work stress contributed to the separation. The source said Biggs lost more than 40 pounds and that the change boosted his ego.

Biggs discussed his weight loss in an interview last April. He said he changed his diet and workout routine to address cholesterol issues and that his cholesterol level dropped 70 points.

Work stress and relationship strain The source also pointed to stress from Biggs' recent work projects. Biggs directed his first film last year, which the source described as a stressful period. The source said Biggs has felt pressure to maintain his public profile and that this stress has created tension with Mollen.

The couple attended therapy, which the source said helped them stay together longer than they otherwise would have.

Focus on children A spokesperson said the former couple remains on good terms and is focused on raising their two sons, ages 8 and 12. Page Six has reached out to representatives for both individuals but has not received additional comment.
