What’s in their breakup note?

The real heart of the note was their children. “For the sake of our children – Tara, Khushi, Rajveer, we commit to being the best parents, the best friends,” they wrote, putting to rest any worry of a messy, public feud. They explicitly shut down gossip, stating, “There is no villain in this story.”
