Finland’s Prime Minister Sanna Marin and her husband, Markus Räikkönen, are to divorce after 19 years together, Marin announced on Instagram on Wednesday.
“We have filed for divorce together. We are grateful for 19 years together and our beloved daughter,” Marin wrote in an Instagram story.
“We are still best friends, cool to each other and loving parents. We will continue to spend time together as a family and with each other,” she added.
Marin and Räikkönen, who used to work at a venture capital firm, have a five-year-old daughter. They married in 2020 while Marin was in office dealing with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
After her marriage to Räikkönen in August 2020, Marin wrote on “Instagram”: “We lived our youth together, entered adulthood together, grew up and became parents to our dear daughter together.”
Marin and her government resigned after she and her Social Democratic Party lost the parliamentary elections last month.
Marin, 37, was the youngest female prime minister in the world when she took office in 2019.
