Aisha Tyler's husband officially files for divorce

Aisha Tylor's husband, Jeff Tietjens, filed for divorce earlier this month after 20 years of marriage, Entertainment Tonight can confirm.

Tyler and Tietjens, who tied the knot in 1994 after striking up a relationship in college, legally separated in January 2015.

Tietjens, an attorney by trade, is not currently seeking spousal support, but indicated in his divorce petition that he is reserving the right to do so at a later date, TMZ reports.

While neither party has commented on the reasons behind the split, Tyler, 45, has been vocal about the couple's inability to conceive children.

The "Talk" co-host got candid about their fertility struggles on the CBS daytime panel talk show back in September 2013, where she opened up about the couple's numerous failed In vitro fertilization treatments, and revealed that doctors have given her less than a 5 percent chance of ever getting pregnant.

"The hardest part, I think, is I really love my husband," Tyler said at the time. "He's such a good person. He would be such a good father." Check out the video below to hear more.
