Hilary Duff confirms she doesn't speak to her dad often: 'It's hard if a family breaks apart dramatically' – Yahoo USEnglish Hilary Duff is reflecting on her parents' divorce and how it shaped her approach to her own split from NHL player Mike Comrie. During a recent appearance on the podcast On Purpose with Jay Shetty, the Lizzie McGuire star opened up about the short and long-term effects of her parents' divorce. Robert and Susan Duff ended their marriage in 2008 after 20 years together. "My parents divorced when I was around 18. And I feel like that was a really hard time," Duff said. "Because I was like kind of an adult, and then you're like, did they just stay together to get us to this point? And now you have guilt that they were unhappy." The Disney Channel star and pop singer added that in watching how her parents were following their divorce — noting it was challenging for them "to be honest with each other" and "there was a lot of fighting" to the point they could not be in the same room — she tried for a more positive route in her own split from Comrie, whom she divorced in 2016.
