How do you think? Duchovny and Téa Leoni Separated "for Months"

Keeping the separation secret is more important than keeping his sex addiction secret? Totally screwed up logic. Seriously........kids can deal with their parents separating.....but not only knowing that your father's a sex addict, but it being on every entertainment news outlet in the US? I'm still holding out that the whole thing is a joke. Who announces their sex addict rehabilitation stint? Couldn't he have just said he was undergoing therapy? Did we really need the specifics?
Why am I not surprised? I would have been surprised if it weren't for David announcing his sex addiction, but when something like that happens, it's a strain on the marriage. The other spouse can't deal with the problem and it becomes a strain on the marriage
Téa Leoni released a statement Wednesday acknowledging that she and husband David Duchovny have been separated in recent months.

"In light of continuous speculation over the lives and marriage of Téa Leoni and David Duchovny, the couple has confirmed that they have in fact been separated for several months," the statement says. "The couple had hoped to keep this separation private for the sake of their children." Leoni's PR firm confirmed the comments to TVGuide.com.

Duchovny entered rehab for sex addiction in late August, and completed his treatment in October. He and Leoni have been married since 1997 and have a daughter, age 9 and son, age 6, together.

Given the circumstances, it's not the couple's separation that seems surprising, but their ability to keep it under wraps this long. Will they be able to patch things up?
