Jesse James and Alexis DeJoria are calling it quits.

The reality star and mechanic – who hosts Monster Garage – announced he is parting ways with the professional drag racer on Instagram on Tuesday (March 17).

“I know a lot of you have been asking if I will be attending the NHRA races this year to work on Alexis’ funny car,” Jesse wrote. “Its with an incredible amount of sadness to let you know Alexis and I have decided to end our marriage.”

“We spent close to seven amazing years together,” he continued. “Working on her race car for five of those years was one of the highlights of my life. Also a highlight was trying my best to be a good dad to her daughter. Something that will leave a huge hole in my heart forever.”

“Unfortunately at the end of the day our lives were just headed in different directions,” he added. “Creating a distance that was insurmountable. I wish her the absolute best in her racing and life. I hope you can respect our privacy in this tough time. Thank you.”

Alexis DeJoria is Jesse James’ fourth wife. He was previously married to Karla James, Janine Lindemulder, and Sandra Bullock (hear what he had to say about his split with Sandra).

Sandra Bullock is happier than ever with her boyfriend Bryan Randall!

The 52-year-old Ocean’s Eight actress has been dating the photographer for almost two years now, and they’re definitely in a good spot, according to E! News.

“Life after Jesse [James] was really tough,” a source reported, referring to Sandra‘s ex-husband. “She was embarrassed by what he did and in ways blamed herself at the time (she knows now it wasn’t her at all). She did consider Jesse a father to [her seven-year-old son] Louis, so that was one of the hardest parts of breaking up. Jesse was there for her through the whole adoption process. She now knows she is much better off and everything happens for a reason.”

“She is an independent mom and also found a great man that loves her and her kids unconditionally,” the insider went on. “Her children are her life and always have been her top priority. She lived just for her child Louis for a while and stayed away from dating to focus on herself and Louis. It took Sandy some time to actually open up to a man, trust and love again.”

Jesse James is opening up about his split from ex-wife Sandra Bullock and how losing his adopted son Louis was the hardest part of it all.

The couple broke up in early 2010 after five years of marriage when it was revealed that Jesse had been having an affair.

“The relationship part I was able to put [aside],” Jesse said in an interview for In Depth with Graham Bensinger. “I had to stand up in front of the media and take full account for what I did. And I took it all. I took 100 percent of it right on the chin. Nobody does that. Everybody denies it… I’m the guy that ruined my marriage because I banged some stripper. There’s got to be some flaw in my personality that made me think that was okay.”

“The painful part was about Louis, who we adopted,” he added about the son that they adopted in January 2010. “As bad as stuff was between us, we adopted a kid and things got kind of good for a little while and we had that kid to focus on, and, boom, it was over in 24 hours – gone, done.”

“I got divorced and lost a kid I adopted because of it,” Jesse continued while discussing Louis. “Whether that’s fair, whether I should have lost a kid due to infidelity, which I don’t think anybody ever does. But I think with ‘Hollywood Law’ that’s totally fair.”

Sandra Bullock carries her son Louis while heading to a Thanksgiving party with her father John on Wednesday (November 21) in Beverly Hills, Calif.

The 48-year-old actress’ ex-husband Jesse James is reportedly engaged to be married for the fourth time to drag racer and Paul Mitchell heiress Alexis DeJoria. The pair have only been dating for a few months, according to the Huffington Post.

It’s over for Kat Von D and Jesse James – yet again.

“I am not in a relationship. (And I apologize for all the “back and forth” if it’s caused any confusion),” the 29-year-old tattoo artist wrote on her Facebook page.

A source also confirmed the split to People.

Kat and Jesse, 42, got re-engaged in August after splitting earlier in the summer.

Kat also set the record straight about moving to Texas, where Jesse lives.

“I am not opening up another tattoo shop. And I am not leaving my shop here in Los Angeles, High Voltage Tattoo,” she shared.
