Friends star Matt LeBlanc has filed for divorce from wife Melissa after nearly three years of marriage. Divorce papers were filed in LA on Thursday, citing "irreconcilable differences," and state that the couple split on January 1 of this year. A statement issued on the couple's behalf said, "Melissa and Matt LeBlanc have decided to end their marriage of three years. The dissolution is amicable. They remain devoted parents and friends. For the sake of their family, they ask that their privacy be respected at this time." The pair have a two-year-old daughter who suffers from a rare brain disorder, and Matt is stepfather to Melissa's two children from a previous marriage. In 2005, the star issued a public apology to his wife after getting "carried away" at a strip club during a motorbike trip to Canada, saying, "I acted like a fool in allowing myself to be led astray and placed in such a horrible situation. I feel ashamed."
