'10
I was never an ER watcher, but I always liked Noah Wyle, and admired him for the low-key way he lead his life as a television star and occasional film actor. So it’s just sad to hear that Noah and his wife Tracy have split up, and are already in “a mediation process” which I think is a fancy way of saying “divorce”. Noah and Tracy had been together 10 years, having met on the set of The Myth of Fingerprints, when Tracy did his makeup. They have a son, Owen, age 7, and daughter Auden, age 4. I love the name “Auden” by the way. That’s so pretty.
Noah Wyle and his wife, Tracy, have separated after 11 years of marriage, the actor’s rep tells PEOPLE.
“Tracy Wyle and Noah Wyle, who separated in late October 2009, have confirmed they have entered into a mediation process,” rep Eddie Michaels announced in a statement on the couple’s behalf. “Neither has legally filed for divorce. Tracy and Noah live in separate residences; however their two children (Owen, 7, and Auden, 4) see both parents daily.”
Wyle, best known as John Carter from NBC’s hit ER, married makeup artist Tracy Warbin in 1998 after the couple met on the set of Myth of Fingerprints.
Says a friend of the couple: “They’re cooperative with each other and have put the interests of their children ahead of anything else.”
Wyle recently wrapped a TNT pilot for a sci-fi show, co-produced by Steven Spielberg and DreamWorks Television.

Just to see if there was anything juicy about this split (another woman, another man, some kind of farm animal), I did the necessary googling, but the Wyles seem clean as a whistle. And you know someone is squeaky-clean if the Internet is quiet about it! So, what broke them up? I have no idea, truly. Am I a bad person for feeling slightly turned on that Noah is back on the market? He’s so cute! I love how he’s rocking all of this facial hair too – he has such a baby face, anything to help him look older.

I have always thought he was kinda hot.

He looks a little like Tom Green in the bottom picture!

This may be like the split between Jane Kazmarek and Bradley Whitford–amicable but unexpected.
Kaiser, if you like this guy, he made a whole series of “Librarian” TV films for TNT.

YES!!! Oh, wait. I’m remarried. Crap.

Kaiser, I’ve been waiting patiently for 10 years for him to be available again, so if you’re a bad person, I’m a horrible person.

Wow, he is one of those few men who looks good with facial hair IMO. I’m sorry to hear about his marriage though.

Boo. I always have high hopes for actor/regular person marriages. Especially when they live a fairly normal life and don’t court publicity.
Are there any marriages that don’t end in divorce anymore?

He is absolutely handsome.

Another respectable marriage in Ho-wood bites the dust. They’re just people, after all, and marriages/lengthy partnerships dissolve at just greater than 50%.

Aw, sad, especially with 2 little kids. Hopefully it is as amicable as it sounds, good for them for putting the kids first.
I’ve always thought he was cute enough and seemed nice, but he doesn’t really do it for me.

Aw, another one bites the dust. That sucks. Always root for the ones who defy the odds.

YAY!!!!!! I mean “that’s too bad.”
Seriously – the guy is a little on the artsy/eccentric serious side, I wouldn’t have guessed this one ever. I thought they’d be the forever kind. That’s unfortunate for her. Love that he’s back on the market though!

I’ve liked him since his days as Dr. Carter on ER and yes, he’s still hot.
His Librarian movies are great fun!

Aww sad – I didn’t like ER either, but he’s a decent actor and I appreciate the fact that his life is low-key.
As an aside, are they going with an early-20th Century poets theme with the children’s names – Wilfred Owen and WH Auden?

I always thought they looked like brother & sister. Very similar bone structure and noses. Sorry to hear about the divorce, 10 years is forever in Hollywood.

I feel like I’m being mean, but she looks like a woman who may have been beautiful 10 years ago, and is now just ordinary while he is still handsome. Plus, she is looking much older than he does. I’m feeling like that has something to do with the split.

I didn’t see this coming either. There’s always pictures of him and one or both of the kids over on that celebrity baby blog site. Both kids are adorable and always look happy. Too bad their parents are breaking up.
BTW, “mediation process” means they are negotiating dividing their assets via mediation rather than going to court with a passel of lawyers. There will be one mediator deciding who gets what and his/her word will be final. This is much better than going to court and airing dirty laundry (if any).

I remember that when they first got married, Noah mentioned to a reporter that he always squeezed the toothpaste from the bottom of the tube and rolled it up as he went. He said something to the effect that his wife “wasn`t brought up that way” and she squeezed it in the middle. The reporter asked how they handled that problem and Noah said they bought two tubes of toothpaste
If you`re not careful, little things like that can build up into major problems.

I can’t believe the tabloids and their insiders and sources didn’t know that they separated in Oct or that Susan and Tim split up in the summer but they know everything that goes on in some celebs bedrooms like Tom and Katie or Brad and Angie. Thats remarkable

awww this is a sad one. I remember when he gave interviews about first meeting her. He was head over heels in love with her. But I agree with the others she did not age well at all. They didn’t even have a hollywood lifestyle. They lived on a ranch.
Maybe it is just like so many other couples. You grow up and you grow apart. Diffrent people wanting diffrent things.
God I still have my 1994 crush on him.

Still got my crush on him too. Not only is he hot, he has a real charm too.
And agree, Kaiser, Auden is a lovely name for a girl.

How is Auden pronounced? Is it Odd-Den, Or Oh-den?

On a random note, “The Myth of Fingerprints” was a good movie. Though it upset me right at the end by having the Roy Scheider character turn out to be a sleaze. I love Roy Scheider!
