Pink: 'Don't blame Hart for marriage split'

Pop star Pink has urged her fans to go easy on estranged husband Carey Hart, after announcing the couple had split on Tuesday.

The 'Stupid Girls' singer insists she still loves motocross racer Hart, who she wed in January 2006, very much, and that the sportsman remains her best friend.

In a posting on her website, Pink writes: "I wanted to reach out personally to all my fans/friends out there in the world.

"First and foremost, thank you for all of your support and love, it means a lot to me right now. The most important thing for you all to know is that Carey and I love each other so so much."
