Jennie Garth and Peter Facinelli probably have enough to think about without having to address the inevitable questions that follow the breakup of a relatively long Hollywood marriage.

Sure enough, conspiracy theorists immediately started speculating whether or infidelity had marred their 11-year union and ultimately led to their split.

Well, just as they announced the end of their marriage as a team, they have put up a united front to pointedly denying the infidelity rumors, as well.

"There are rumors out there which are completely untrue and hurtful to our family," the pair said in a joint statement. "We just want to make it very clear—there are no third parties involved."

Garth and Facinelli met on the set of a film in 1996 and welcomed daughter Luca Bella the following year. They swapped vows in 2001 and had two more daughters, Lola and Fiona.
