Jesiree Dizon shared a heartfelt public message after she and Criminal Minds star Shemar Moore called it quits.
Taking to Instagram on Friday, January 31, Dizon shared a photo of herself with Moore, 54, and their daughter, Frankie, 2, alongside a lengthy caption praising her now ex, who was tagged in the post.
“The amount of love and support during this difficult time has been nothing short of overwhelming. Although our reality has changed, what will ALWAYS remain is the love and respect Shemar and I both have for each other,” Dizon, 41, wrote.
Dizon added that she was focused on establishing a strong coparenting relationship with Moore, who she dated for five years. (Moore and Dizon welcomed daughter Frankie in January 2023.

“Our commitment is not only to keep our love for each other alive and strong through the best friendship, but by also being the BEST co-parents in continuing to raise our daughter, Frankie, and Kaiden and Charli,” Dizon continued.
Referencing an earlier statement made by Moore in the wake of the separation news being made public, Dizon added, “As Shemar said, breakups aren’t easy, ESPECIALLY publicly so we ask that you please continue to give us love and grace as we navigate our new reality and respect our privacy to allow us to heal.”
Earlier the same day, Shemar confirmed their breakup via a video on his own Instagram account, asking for privacy and complimenting Dizon.
“It’s my life,” he said. “Mind your business [and] give us a break, give us some privacy. … She’s an amazing woman for so many reasons. Next to my mother, because my mother was a boss, Jesiree Dizon is No. 2. She is a phenomenal mother [and] is loving, attentive, caring, smart, nurturing.”
The S.W.A.T actor added, “Breaking up ain’t easy. … I’m looking for joy, I’m looking for calm, I’m looking for peace [and] I’m looking for love in my life, in my spirit.”
Meanwhile, Dizon concluded her touching Instagram post with a message directed at Moore personally.
“Shemar: Even though our romantic journey has ended, we are still stuck together FOR LIFE so let’s kill this parenting thing…. TOGETHER ❤️❤️ you are the most amazing daddy to Frankie….
Still and will always be your best role yet,” she wrote, adding, “I will always love you.”
Moore and Dizon had been together for nearly five years, making their Instagram debut in 2023.
