And who knows what it is, or who is involved. But this isn't just a simple "growing apart." Most politicians do the European thing in that case, if neither cares, they just carry on smartly (more so if there are kids involved).
Look at Jeb and Columba--she spends more time in Mexico City than she does in FL. She can barely speak english anymore, she learned it late and never uses it.
