Avril Lavigne and husband Deryck Whibley are calling it quits.

In a blog posted on her MySpace.com profile entitled "Moving Forward on a Positive Note," the singer writes:

"Deryck and I have been together for 6 and a half years. We have been friends since I was 17, started dating when I was 19, and married when I was 21. I am grateful for our time together, and I am grateful and blessed for our remaining friendship. I admire Deryck and have a great amount of respect for him. He is the most amazing person I know and I love him with all my heart. Deryck and I are separating and moving forward on a positive note. Thank you to all my family, friends and fans for all your support."

Lavigne and Whibley, a rocker from the band Sum 41, wed in July of 2006.
