Tom Segura<\/a> is finally addressing the news that he and Christina Pazsitzky are divorcing. <\/p>\n

In July, news broke that the comedy power couple were calling it quits<\/a> after nearly two decades of marriage, and last week Pazsitzky shared her feelings on the matter during an episode of \u201cYour Mom\u2019s House,<\/a>\u201d the wildly successful comedy podcast the two launched together in 2010. On Wednesday \u2014 a week after Pazsitzky\u2019s episode dropped \u2014 Segura stepped in to host the show and share his side of the story.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy first podcast here in a while,\u201d Segura began the episode<\/a>, guest co-hosted by fellow comedian Ryan Sickler. \u201cI know that a lot of people obviously heard the news and saw last week\u2019s episode where Christina hosted.\u201d <\/p>\n

Segura said although he doesn\u2019t feel like he needs to say much on the matter, it did bother him that fans called him out with jabs like, \u201cI can\u2019t believe you would make her go address this alone.\u201d Segura said that assumption couldn\u2019t be further from the truth and that the former couple had been recording separate episodes since they split earlier this year. <\/p>\n

\u201cEverything that people know is not new to us,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s been many, many months.\u201d<\/p>\n

Last week, Pazsitzky cried during what she dubbed the \u201cdivorce episode<\/a>\u201d of \u201cYour Mom\u2019s House<\/a>\u201d and told guest co-host Duncan Trussell that the pair tried to work it out for several years for the sake of their children and family. \u201cWe gave it all we could, but we just couldn\u2019t work things out,\u201d she said. \u201cWe are no longer a couple.\u201d<\/p>\n

Segura said Pazsitzky\u2019s episode happened to be the first after TMZ caught wind that the pair had split, so she addressed it first. \u201cIt was never like, \u2018Hey, you go handle this.\u2019 It was just the the timing … and we both decided to record separately.\u201d <\/p>\n

Segura said the split had been a long and horrible experience. \u201cIt\u2019s, emotionally, a roller coaster. Your emotions change often many times in a day. If anyone\u2019s ever been through it, you don\u2019t feel the same all the time, and it\u2019s really tough on you. Like personally, it\u2019s really tough.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving it be public is awful,\u201d he continued, adding that the former couple hoped to keep the high-profile split private. \u201cIt\u2019s a private matter.\u201d <\/p>\n

Segura continued that he\u2019s not the type of guy who\u2019s an \u201copen book\u201d with his personal life, and that he understands the public\u2019s interest in their divorce, whether they are trolls or heartbroken fans. \u201cI totally get it,\u201d he said. \u201cI also wanted to reiterate that we\u2019re not combative. We talk every day. I support Christina and everything she does. She supports me, and our focus, as you would imagine, is just on our children. We\u2019re just trying to provide the best life we can for them, and we\u2019re trying to take care of them.\u201d <\/p>\n

The comedian, who has previously used his marriage as source material in his stand-up comedy, told listeners that he wouldn\u2019t be doing interviews, podcasts or press about the split and planned to focus on his work and co-parenting with Pazsitzky. \u201cThis is me addressing what it is and how it\u2019s been, and it\u2019s been terrible. And I don\u2019t feel like I need to keep talking about this. … As disappointing as it is, it is what it is.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tom Segura is finally addressing the news that he and Christina Pazsitzky are divorcing.
