According to a report by nydailynews.com, the reason behind the split is that Jennifer wanted to get married and have kids but Jon wasn’t keen about taking their relationship forward.
Hamm and Westfeldt established a production company, Points West Pictures, in 2009 and stayed together as Hamm’s fame skyrocketed during his eight years on Mad Men, despite recent rumours about a split. They never Wednesday. The actress/screenwriter stuck by the “Mad Men” star’s side earlier this year while he battled an alcohol addiction, but the pair has differing views when it comes to family. “Because he wanted kids and she didn’t”.
In March 2015, just before Mad Men’s eighth season finale, it emerged that Hamm had completed a course of rehab for alcoholism with the full support of Westfeldt.
The article also stated that in 2010 John gave a statement to Parade magazine and said, “I don’t have the marriage chip, and neither of us have the greatest examples of marriages in our families”.
Back in 2012, Westfeldt opened up about the issue, telling the New York Times: “I never thought I’d be this age and not have kids”.
On Monday, People Magazine released Hamm and Westfeldt’s joint statement that they are splitting.
We hope that the split will allow them both to be truly happy. She added that every second that she had spent with him was like an “OMIGODI’mgoingtodie!” moment.
