According to available reports, their love story began when they first met on the set of the sitcom, Reba in 2004. Steve played the role of Van Montgomery, the lead character, while Sarah was a guest.

The duo began talking and became platonic friends while getting to know each other. After some time, they started a romantic relationship which led them to take the next step which was getting married.

Their union was blessed with three beautiful children- their first son named William Wolf Howey who was born in July 2009, and a set of twins, Violet Moon Howey and her brother named Knox Blue Howey, who were both born on May 1, 2015.

Unfortunately, the couple’s marriage did not have a happily ever after ending as things went sour between them leading to a divorce. However, they both decided to co-parent their children in peace and always provide and be there for them.

Violet Moon Howey’s Parent’s Divorce Was Finalized In January 2021

Violet Moon Howey’s parents, Steve Howey and Sarah Shahi filed for divorce in May 2020 citing irreconcilable differences as the reason for their divorce. Their divorce was later finalized in January 2021.

The now-divorced couple is doing quite well in their respective careers and have been able to jointly create time to always be there for their children even though they are no longer married.

In an interview, Howey stated that they got divorced due to their different work schedules. Howey was so engaged in his work filming the final season of Shameless, while Sarah was also very busy at the same time filming various projects, including The Rookie, Persons of Interest, and Sex/Life for Netflix.

They were so busy to the point that whenever they came back home, they did not have time to sit down as a couple and discuss or share couple moments. All the energy left was channeled to the children who needed their parent’s care and attention.

Sarah told Oprah Daily that becoming a mother changed her in so many ways. She and her now ex-husband did not feel any desire for each other anymore after their kids were born. It was like the feelings they had for each other died and they were living more like strangers than a couple. That was when they realized that things were no longer working between them and they decided to call it quits on their marriage.

Moving on from the divorce, Sarah Shahi is currently romantically involved with co-actor Adam Demos while Steve Howey is still single at the moment.
