Josh Duhamel is opening up about why his marriage to Fergie didn’t last. The two were married from 2009 until their split in 2017, with the divorce finalized in 2019. On The Skinny Confidential Him & Her Podcast, Duhamel kept it simple: they’re just very different people with different worldviews. No scandal, no dramatic twist — just two adults who grew in different directions. He said they “outgrew each other” and developed different interests over time. As he’s gotten older, he’s leaned more into a quieter North Dakota lifestyle — and he admitted that just wasn’t her thing. Despite the breakup, there’s zero bitterness. He said they had a great time together and share a “beautiful son,” 12-year-old Axl. He also praised her as a great mom — kind, non-confrontational, and wholesome, especially after stepping away from the spotlight. Duhamel is now married to Audra Mari.
