Shemar Moore and Jesiree Dizon have gone their separate ways.

The couple recently split after nearly five years together, PEOPLE can confirm. TMZ was the first to report the news.

“They are loving friends and co-parents and always will be,” a source tells PEOPLE of the breakup.

The former couple went Instagram official in January 2023, but knew each other for years before then. The pair grew close in 2020 after Moore’s mother died. The S.W.A.T. star, 54, and the model, 41, are parents to a baby girl named Frankie, who they welcomed on Jan. 24, 2023.

In November 2024, Moore spoke exclusively to PEOPLE about his relationship with Dizon, saying although the actress was his “partner” and a “dope-ass mama,” he did not see marriage in the cards for them.

“I didn’t have a good role model of marriage in my life. Not my mother, not my father. Nobody close to me,” he said at the time, adding that he often asks himself, “‘Who made that rule?’ ”

For Moore, the idea of appreciating the moment was especially appealing.

“To me, it’s just like tomorrow’s not guaranteed, but Jesiree, I’ll give you everything I got today and tomorrow. She is my partner. She is the mother of Frankie. Frankie has a dope-ass mama, and I’m going to try to be a dope-ass daddy. And we going to do that until God calls my name,” the Sonic the Hedgehog 3 actor added.

The two have often given glimpses into their life with Frankie, and Shemar recently credited the toddler with saving his life.

“[Frankie] is the reason I’m so damn happy, and my girl Jesiree. That’s my little baby girl. That’s my miracle. That’s little Frankie,” he said during a Jan. 24 episode of The Jennifer Hudson Show.

“That girl truly has given me purpose. She saved my life,” the Criminal Minds actor continued of his youngest child.

Last summer, Shemar told PEOPLE he was still open to the idea of more kids with Jesiree in the future.

“Possibly. But I ain’t no Spring Chicken and Ms. Thing [Jesiree], she’s already got two wonderful kids — her son, Kayden, who’s 17, and her little daughter Charlie, who’s 6 — and they’re sweethearts,” he said during the June 2024 interview. “And then we got little Frankie. We got our dog, Tyson. So we got a full house.”

Earlier that same month, Shemar celebrated his first Father’s Day with a sweet and flirty message from Jesiree.
