She signed off, ‘With love and gratitude — Rachel & Rodger.’

The former couple are parents to sons Kaius, 10, and Skyler, 13.

Zoe and Berman met in the early 90s while they were students at George Washington University. 

They married on Valentine’s Day in 1996.

Parts of their marriage were documented on the Bravo reality series The Rachel Zoe Project, which aired from 2007 to 2013.

The two also appeared on Lifetime’s Fashionably Late With Rachel Zoe, which lasted one season in 2015. 

Berman is the cofounder and co-CEO of the fashion entrepreneur’s Rachel Zoe Inc.

Two years ago she took to social media to pay tribute to Rodger on their 31st aniversary.

‘I have loved you @rbermanus from this day 8.29 ❤️ 31 years ago… we have done this life together and I cannot wait to see what is yet to come,’ she wrote in the caption at the time.

‘Happiest anniversary to my person ❤️ And Yes everyone we met in kindergarten,’ she joked.’

Rodger previously opened up to Harper’s Bazaar about how they met.

‘I met Rachel in the summer of 1991. She was 19, and I was 22. She was a restaurant hostess, and I was working as a waiter in Washington, D.C., where we both attended college,’ he told the publication in 2011.

‘I vividly remember the first time I saw her — wearing a tight black mini dress, high-heeled pumps, stick-straight hair, and big red lips covered in M.A.C. Chili lipstick,’ the father-of-two recalled.
