Tish Cyrus and Billy Ray Cyrus are breaking their silence about their impending divorce. “It is after 30 years, five amazing children and a lifetime of memories, we have decided to go our separate ways — not with sadness, but with love in our hearts,” reads a joint statement issued by the couple via a family representative exclusively to PEOPLE.

“We will always be family and look forward to a continued and loving shared experience as friends and parents. We have not come to this decision lightly or quickly but with so much going on in the world, we wanted to provide some clarity and closure, so we can remain focused on what is important,” continues the statement. Tish, 54, filed for divorce in Williamson County, Tennessee after more than 28 years of marriage on the basis of “irreconcilable differences,” according to documents obtained by PEOPLE.

First reported by TMZ, the filing marks the third time the pair have split. Tish said in the documents that she and Billy Ray, 60, have not cohabitated in over two years. Tish and Billy Ray tied the knot in 1993 and had three children, daughters Miley, 29, and Noah, 22, and son Braison, 27. The Doc actor also adopted Tish’s daughter Brandi, 34, and son Trace, 33, from her previous marriage.
