Courteney Cox has secretly parted ways with her longtime partner, Johnny McDaid. A well-placed insider told Daily Mail that the 62-year-old American actress and producer secretly separated last year after more than ten years of togetherness.
The decision was mutual and made after serious consideration, as they both had started living “different lives” personally and professionally. Both Cox and the Snow Patrol musician would split their time between Los Angeles and London.
Johnny speaks highly of Courteney, stating that they have a very deep relationship and remain extremely amicable. They are great friends and care about each other very much. The source claimed this was not an ugly split but rather a point where they were living different lives.
Cox and McDaid first crossed paths at a star-studded house party hosted by the Cougar Town star in 2013 and started dating shortly after their first encounter. They announced their engagement after nine months of dating, but their relationship took a tumultuous turn, leading to the cancellation of their engagement in 2015.
It is pertinent to mention that Cox and McDaid reconciled in 2016 but did not get re-engaged.
