People.com also reported the breakup, but said Williams, 38, and Elverum, 40, remain friends.

They exchanged wedding vows in a small ceremony in the Adirondacks last July. They lived in Brooklyn with Williams' 12-year-old daughter, Matilda. The child's father was actor Heath Ledger, who died of a drug overdose in 2008.
