The Rock, the Kasbah producer, got engaged to girlfriend Zooey on 17 January 2015. The celebration at Cataline Island became a double treat for the engaged couple, who also celebrated Zooey’s birthday.
Just a week before their engagement, Jacob gushed E! News about expecting his first child with his then-fiancee. Zooey was raised by a Quaker father and Roman Catholic mother. However, she chose to adopt her husband’s religion of Judaism for their matrimony.
The pair exchanged wedding vows on 21 June 2015 in a very low-key affair in Austin two months before the arrival of their first child.

Together, they are blessed with two children; Elsie Otter Pechenik and Charlie Wolf.
The pair welcomed their first child as a daughter, Elsie, on 3 August 2015. Zooey revealed the real reason to keep her daughter’s middle name as Otter (animal) was: They are lovely, and they are also smart.

Previously, Zooey tied the nuptials with American songwriter Ben Gibbard in 2009 and ended their three years of marriage in 2012. Her other affair was screenwriter Jamie Linden, and after their relationship went fizzled, her budding relationship with Jacob started.
Split With Wife
It comes as a shock to find out that Jacob and Zoey have called time on their four-year-long marriage in September of 2019. The pair who share two children, Elsie and Charlie, have decided they would best be together as friends rather than husband and wife. In a joint statement issued jointly, they stated:
After much discussion and a long period of contemplation we have decided we are better off as friends, business partners, and co-parents rather than life partners, we remain committed to our business, our values and most of all our children. Thank you for respecting our privacy at this time.
They got married in 2015 in a low-key wedding two months before the birth of their first child. And things seemed to go as planned until recent news regarding their decision to split hit the news.
As for why the pair have decided to separate has not yet been disclosed, but regardless, they still plan to remain good friends with one another.
Officially Divorced?
