Emmy winner Seyfried, 40, and The press room Star Sadoski, 50, posed together in a photo that Seyfried uploaded to Instagram Stories with the repost: “The most radical thing we can do is make divorce boring.

The post also argues that divorce should be seen as “just another life transition – like a marriage, like a graduation” so that “the patriarchy loses one of its most effective weapons.”
