The 'Promiscuous' songstress and her sound engineer hubby, who tied the knot in a secret wedding ceremony in 2008, had split in the summer of 2016.

AceShowbiz - Nelly Furtado has made a shocking revelation about her marriage to Demacio Castellon. In an interview on ITV's "Loose Women" on Wednesday, April 12, the 38-year-old singer revealed that she and her sound engineer hubby had split in the summer of 2016.

"I am single now," she said, before jokingly adding, "Someone here needs to update my Wikipedia. It's not helping my dating life!" Nelly and Demacio tied the knot in a secret wedding ceremony in 2008 that they kept under wraps for more than a year. They first met when working on Nelly's third album, "Loose", in 2006.

"I went through an emotionally difficult time last summer and I actually wrote and sung myself songs to get through it," she said about the divorce. "I would sing to myself while I drove on these long drives, and I thought to myself, 'I'm so lucky that I can write songs because I can soothe myself with them.' "

While she has some difficulties following the breakup, the "Say It Right" hitmaker wants to focus on taking care of her 13-year-old daughter Nevis. "Sometimes you just want to sit home and bake some muffins for your daughter. I need to stay mentally and emotionally and physically well for my daughter," she shared, adding, "I need to stay emotionally and physically well for my daughter."

Nelly's rep has also confirmed the divorce to ET. "Nelly is out of the country promoting her new album, but on her behalf, I can confirm the news is true, and Nelly has been and is in great spirits personally and professionally," her rep tells the publication. "She is currently in the U.K. and Germany promoting her new album."
