Shania Twain splits from music producer husband after 15-year marriage

Shania Twain and husband-producer Robert "Mutt" Lange are splitting up after 14 years of marriage.

The 42-year-old Canadian country superstar and 59-year-old Lange married in 1993 and have a 6-year-old son named Eja.

Her publicist provided no further details Thursday about the couple's breakup.

The couple have, up until now, been living Tour-de-Peilz, Switzerland, where they have kept a low profile away from the spotlight.

Ms. Twain told People in 2002: "Our love has always been based on friendship and compatibility, (but) we are very different."

Lange and Twain, best known for her hits "Man! I Feel Like A Woman!" and "You're Still the One," recently opened a hiking trail on their property in New Zealand, fulfilling a pact designed to allay fears that wealthy foreigners were snapping up and sealing off the country's prime real estate.

Their 14-year partnership led to enormous sales of at least 47 million albums in the U.S. alone, co-writing almost all of her biggest hits from 1995 to 2005

Lange produced three of Twain's albums: 1995's "The Woman in Me," 1997's "Come on Over" and 2002's "Up!"
