Feb. 5 (UPI) -- U.S. comedian Sarah Silverman announced via Twitter Monday that she has split up with British actor Michael Sheen.
"The great @michaelsheen & I consciously uncoupled over Christmas. I mean, not 'over Christmas' - like that wasn't the fight that ended it," Silverman tweeted. "No fight. We just live in different countries & it got hard. Felt we should just tell y'all so u stop askin, 'How's Michael/How's Sarah?'"
E! News noted Sheen, who lives in England, and Silverman, who calls Los Angeles home, met while filming Showtime's Master of Sex. They have been together since early 2014.
Silverman previously dated talk-show host Jimmy Kimmel and Sheen has a teen daughter with his ex, actress Kate Beckinsale.
