My parents separated when I was very small. I grew up with my mother, and I was a single child then. She was very independent, doing her things and having fun alone and working.

My parents were divorced by the time I was even conscious - like, I don't remember them ever being together.

My parents split up when I was 3 years old, and I lived with my mother.

My parents separated when I was eight. I grew up with my mom alone.

My parents separated when I was younger.

My mother and father split up when I was three and my brother was still in the womb.

My parents split when I was 13. For a youngster, it's quite devastating. One minute you're all happy families, then everything changes.

My parents were very, very close; they pretty much grew up together. They were born in 1912. They were each other's only boyfriend and girlfriend. They were - to use a contemporary term I hate - co-dependent, and they had me very late. So they had their way of doing things, and they reinforced each other.

My father and my mother separated when I was two.

My parents divorced when I was very, very young, but they maintained an incredibly amicable relationship. They were great partners, they were great parents, and they were great friends throughout my whole life until I was about 25, at which point they realized that they could relinquish; they could call it and move on.
