X Files star and husband split

X Files star Gillian Anderson and her husband photojournalist and filmmaker Julian Ozanne are separating, they announced today.

The couple married in December 2004 and have been living together in London with Anderson’s daughter from a previous marriage.

Chicago-born Anderson, 37, best known as X Files’ Scully, recently received a Bafta Best Actress nomination for her portrayal of Lady Deadlock in the BBC’s adaptation of Bleak House.

A statement from the pair’s solicitor, Schillings, said: “Gillian Anderson and her husband Julian Ozanne are saddened to announce that their marriage is at an end and they are in the process of separating.

“At this difficult time they request that their privacy is respected. There will be no further comment.”
