"It is with great sadness that circumstances beyond his control have transpired which have resulted in Mr. Costner having to participate in a dissolution of marriage," the actor's publicist, Arnold Robinson, said.

Fans have speculated the cryptic message may imply there was possible infidelity in the marriage.

This is Costner's second marriage on the rocks. In 1978, he wed his college sweetheart Cindy Silva. The two divorced in 1994 but have three adult children together.

Costner has a son from another relationship with Bridget Rooney who was born in 1996.
