Since I’ve been writing Angie Harmon stories all week, I’ve been spending some time looking through the photo archives for photos of Angie solo and Angie with her now-estranged husband Jason Sehorn. You know what’s interesting? Angie has spent a lot of time over the past few years going to Hollywood events solo. Angie and Jason haven’t been photographed together on a red carpet since 2011 by WENN’s records. Which is just further evidence for my theory that Jason and Angie have been on the outs for years now, basically ever since she decided to take Rizzoli & Isles and film in LA for six to seven months a year while Jason raised their daughters in nice, conservative North Carolina. Now In Touch Weekly has some gossip about Angie’s behavior while apart from her husband:
News recently broke revealing the split between former NFL pro Jason Sehorn and actress Angie Harmon — but In Touch Weekly has learned that the couple’s 13-year marriage has practically been over for months.
“They’ve actually been living apart since March,” an insider on the set of Angie’s TNT series, Rizzoli & Isles, reveals in the new issue of In Touch. “Everyone knew they were having problems.”
Angie was living the single life way before news broke about her breakup with Jason. “Angie has always acted like she was single around the set — flirting with guys on the cast and crew,” explains the insider. “She’s never really given off a vibe that she’s a married mother of three.”
Oh, Harmon has “always acted like she was single”? I would expect nothing less from such a good, devout Christian. I mean, obviously, she was happy to have the work and I’m sure those Rizzoli & Isles paychecks are great. But I’m still just… confused, I guess, about the thought process that went into taking that job and leaving her family in North Carolina. And for what? She was the architect of her marriage’s demise. Anyway, I do think Angie and Jason have had problems for a lot longer than a few months. Obviously. And despite the “devout Christian” thing, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if both Angie and Jason were fooling around with other people as they lived apart.

I googled pictures of her after this story broke out. It looks like she got bolt-ons pretty recently. Divorce mojo?
I know she has been the worst kind of preachy and judge but I feel these recent articles about her and her family aren’t much better. It seems like by enjoying her struggles that we are all stooping to her level.
+1. Whenever there are kids involved, a divorce is always sad to me and nothing to gloat over. No matter who it is.
Jess, she hasn’t just been the worst kind of preachy. She’s been the worst kind of mother (Well, except for June…) Seriously, who leaves 3 ltitle girls for months at a time? Miss Christian Values is a total hypocrite.
But she acted like a good Christian single person, right?

Ha!
As long as you have sex in a church closet, I believe it’s sanctioned.
That’s what’s weird to me to. I know I couldn’t leave my kids for half the year on the other side of the country. I believe this story and I give her ex a lot of credit, trying to keep it together.
Sure, she can pull a paycheck from evil Hollywood but her family is too pure to live there. Better keep them on opposite coasts; as we can see that worked out well.
Maybe she was Christian front hugging another guy? Rizzoli?
“Christian front hug” is my new pick-up line. “Hey, hot random…wanna “christian front hug”? Yes, that will be do. Men will fall at my ..er..shoulder? I never paid attention to her preachy-ness. Maybe he was the one who refused to have the girls raised in LA? Someone has to work, right? I’m meh on this, except for how gorgeous she is.
Don’t forget about the full frontal Christan hug!
Somebody get Angie a closet, stat!
Don’t you just hate when your morals bite you in the ass! Ha
I know I should be all “Serves you right Judgey McJudgerson” but I feel kind of bad for her.
The end of a marriage is always sad, especially with 3 little girls involved.
I’ve gone back and read some of her interviews over the years about leaving and living in LA. It always sounded strange. She said she was gone six to eight months out of the year. AT first she acted like she would see them every weekend. Then that changed and admitted it was hard and not doable to see them with the shoots always going late on Friday nights and how they could meet halfway sometimes. She talks how great it is that the women, I guess like friends and neighbors, could help with their raising while she’s gone and how amazing her husband was with the girls, and how great it was for the kids living there and then she would come back and have a great time with her family when the show would be finished filming and pick right back up doing normal family life.
The last interview in August or September after spending some time with her girls in Texas, where her family is, she said it was awful, with the girls on the sidewalk crying as they were heading back to Charlotte and she LA, and she gets on the airplane and it’s delayed and she’s in a bad mood because she won’t see her girls for 30 days. Thirty days?
In the interview from a few months back she never made mention once of her husband when talking about the struggle of being a working mom away.
I would not only have been missing my children too much, but I also would have been worried about all those women around my husband he was getting friendly with as Mr. Mom.
I think we can all agree that it was weird not not move their family to CA if she’s gone for that long, though the one thing that has gone unsaid is that this was probably the biggest opportunity of Harmonies career – she’s headlining her own show. Considering that she’s now in her early 40s, this was probably ‘it’ for her career. So in that respect, I can understand.
Grrrrrrr!!!
Somehow I don’t really see Angie having an extramarital affair. Instead I see a very career driven actress who has decided to take on a job that would keep her from being a present mom to her kids. I think she goes to these events so she can heighten her visibility and improve her chances of getting new roles. Her focus seems to be solely on her career rather than her marriage or any other kind of fulfillment – ie. an affair.
She basically wanted the picture perfect image of a family more than the actual family. Her number one priority is still Angie.
Makes me sick to think about those girls having to deal with the fact that mommy didn’t care enough to be around.
Maybe what my best friend’s mom told us in 8th grade was true: pick a family or a career; you can’t do both.
I think you can do both, but not 3000 miles apart.
Jason Sehorn isn’t a stay-at-home Dad. He’s a sports analyst, and has been for some time. Maybe he doesn’t do it 5 days a week like most folks work schedules or have a grueling TV production schedule like his wife, but he does work. I’m only saying this because there were two working parents–not one. When couples become too busy with work or life, you do drift apart.
She and Dean Cain should hook up. Their conservative brand of crazy would combine well. They could be the First Celebrity Couple of Fox News, you know, the right’s answer to Ang and Brad.
I didn’t know Dean Cain was that conservative. What sorts of comments has he made?
Betty:
He’s become a regular fixture on Fox News, and Jon Stewart mocked him a couple of years ago for some clueless comments involving the unemployed. His twitter feed features lots of right-wing vitriol as well. Also seems to fall into the climate-change denier category, and for a guy who has previously stated his support for gay rights, he throws his support behind a lot of organizations and politicians not pursuing pro-gay rights agendas. For example, he supported Rick Perry in 2012.
People I know who have worked with Dean Cain have had nothing but good things to say about him, so it bums me out that he’s become such a lemming. For a guy with a degree from Princeton with a relatively charmed life, it’s disturbing to see him embracing a hate-filled platform, especially since many of those positions are not based in fact. I don’t care what celebrities personal or political beliefs are, but when they use their fame to trumpet wrong information, I draw a line.
That said, from an entertainment perspective, I’m all for Dean and Angie hooking up.
I wonder if they’ve been having problems for a long time, and her taking the job across the country was them sort of trying out living separately? It just doesn’t make much sense otherwise.
I feel bad for the kids, they’ve probably been under a lot of stress for a while now.
Something nice: She really is an amazingly beautiful woman, and she’s aging gorgeously.
Agreed! She is ageing like a fine wine. And I love her husky voice.
Yes, she is smokin’ hot!
Agreed. She’s had the perfect amount of work too.
I happened to be watching the night Jason proposed to her on Leno. I was young enough I remember thinking it was really romantic and not tacky.
Minus the really wonky left eye. It completely stares at the three o’ clock position.
Choosing to stay hundreds of miles apart for 7 months a year, for YEARS on end, is not a sign that you want to be with your spouse. A lot of spouses have to spend a lot of time apart — people in the military, professors teaching at different schools, etc. — but that’s not by choice. Angie Harmon chose to do that, and I do not believe that it was because she thought California was a den of iniquity. Bible-beating types usually also think children need their mothers around. Something else was going on.
I dunno, lots of families do this, in which one spouse will work in another part of the country while the other stays behind to raise the kids. Usually it is the husband. Didn’t Hugh Laurie do this for years while he was on House while his family stayed in England? I feel like people are being more harsh on Harmon because she is a woman. Her husband contributed to the divorce too. He agreed to his wife working far away on a tv show.
Maybe I’m more sensitive about this because my mom did the very same thing when she took a job in Boston 4 years ago. The circumstances are different-Boston is not too far from NY (where my family lives) and my mom made the job switch when my sister and I were in college so we were away most of the time anyways. Mom comes home every weekend to see Dad (sis and I no longer live at home). I find it harsh to say she was the architect of her divorce. Plenty of couples live this way (even with small kids) and don’t get divorced. It’s incredibly hard, but there are ways to make it work.
@ Amy-I agree-I think if she were a man it would be a non-issue.
I also agree with you.
whenever someone throws their religion in your face to validate or justify their life, I get suspicious. I read this quote somewhere-You don’t need religion to have morals, if you can’t determine the right from wrong you lack empathy, not religion.
