Jim Carrey's Daughter Splits From New Husband After Giving Birth


Jim Carrey's daughter Jane has split from her husband after a year of marriage.

The 23-year-old married Alex Santana last year and they have a nine-month-old son Jackson Riley together.

However a spokesperson for Carrey has confirmed that the pair have now split.

The representative said: 'The couple will remain friends, as well as devoted parents to their 9-month-old son, Jackson Riley.'

Jackson is their only child together and was born in February this year just three months after Jane and Santana married.

Carrey, 48, was thrilled with the arrival of his first grandchild.

The I Love You Philip Morris star proudly tweeted at the time: 'Jackson Riley Santana, My Grandson, Born today! This is what 7lbs.11oz. of California dynamite looks like!'

Jane's mother is Jim's ex-wife Melissa Womer, who he divorced in 1995.

After Jane announced her pregnancy last year, Jim said: 'I am very excited. Jane is going to be a great mom.'

Jane is a singer/songwriter, while her husband goes by the stage name Nitro with his rock band Blood Money.

She said in a recent interview she hoped to be able to balance motherhood with her musical career.

She said: 'I’ve always wanted to be a mother and I’ve always wanted to do music, so to have the two together, it’s just awesome. It’s a dream come true.'
