Funkmaster Flex and his wife have decided to clear the air about their suspected separation.

The Hot 97 personality and his wife have decided to go public with their rumored separation just a short time after fellow radio DJ Mr. Cee was arrested for public lewdness. In a statement released to urbanmag.com, Flex's wife said "After almost 18 years of friendship and marriage it is with great regret that I announce my husband Aston Taylor, also known as Funkmaster Flex, and I are separated. We have tremendous love and respect for each-other, and will continue to work on our professional projects together. Our top priority has and will always be our children!" The verdict is still out on if their separation is related to Flex's February arrest after a domestic dispute.
