Why did Eve split from Ewan McGregor?

Eve and Ewan McGregor confirmed they had split in October 2017, the same month she was spotted without her wedding ring.

It came after The Sun revealed the Scot, 50, shared a passionate kiss in a London diner with his Fargo co-star Mary Elizabeth Winstead.

In January, Ewan filed for divorce from his wife of 22 years citing "irreconcilable differences".

Eve met the actress for dinner after she and Ewan were cast together in Fargo.

A follower wrote, “I can’t believe Ewan would end things with u for that cheap w**re! U are so much better than him!!!! Take him for every penny u can!!!!”

To which Eve simply responded, “What can I do?”

The divorce was finalised on August 14, 2020.
