Kiwi Oscar-winning director and actor Taika Waititi and Academy Award-nominated producer Chelsea Winstanley are reportedly separated.
The pair, both 44, met over two decades ago when she interviewed him for a documentary about Māori artists, and then reconnected in 2010 while working on Boy.

But according to a report by pop culture website Page Six, the pair quietly separated two years ago.
