In case you missed it...
Maddie & Tae are going their separate ways, but don't call it a breakup. The duo of Maddie Marlow Font and Tae Dye Kerr are calling it a day for their musical partnership, but unlike most breakups, this one is more than amicable. Talking to "People" magazine, the pair explained that Kerr is taking a break from music to focus on her family, which includes her husband and two kids. As for Maddie, she's readying a solo career. And this may not be a permanent split. "We’re leaving this so open-ended because, you know, we might make another record one day," Font says. "We might go do some tour dates one day." And to reassure fans that things are fine between them, Font says, "Even though we’re not gonna go on this journey as Maddie & Tae together, we’re still walking and doing life together outside of it. And I think I’m really excited to just be best friends and nurture our friendship and not have to worry as much about the work and still get to raise our babies together. None of that changes."
