It's a sad day for romance movie and novel enthusiasts because the reigning king of the genre has bad news! Prepare yourselves, Nicholas Sparks fans because this would change things.
Nicholas and his wife, Cathy have announced their separation. After being married for 25 years and inspiring his many romantic novels including "The Notebook", "A Walk to Remember", and "The Longest Ride".
"Cathy and I have separated," revealed the writer to PEOPLE magazine. "This is, of course, not a decision we've made lightly. We remain close friends with deep respect for each other and love for our children. For our children's sake, we regard this as a private matter."
Of course we hope that they get through this process and come out in a better place. We need Nicholas to come back and be able to write more love stories. So what should he do in order to recover? When I'm feeling heartbreak I have to admit that I might turn to The Notebook. It's just so beautiful and gives you hope.
