Kermit the Frog announced his split from longtime partner Miss Piggy in early August, saying after "considerable romantic squabbling," he and the famous fashionista decided to break up.

"We will continue to work together on television (The Muppets/Tuesdays 8pm this fall on ABC) and in all media now known or hereafter devised, in perpetuity, throughout the universe," he said.

The Muppets is scheduled to premier Tuesday, Sept. 22 on ABC.
