Jenny Mollen and Jason Biggs are still in contact despite their recent split.
“I’m single for the first time in 18 years. Like, what is my life?” Mollen, 47, said during the Tuesday, June 23 episode of Amanda Hirsch’s “Not Skinny But Not Fat” podcast. “It’s surreal. I feel like it’s really bizarre.”
At the same time, she said things with her and Biggs, 48, were “the same” because they share sons Sid, 12, and Lazlo, 8.
“We live in two different places, but we’re still tethered. We have kids. We still talk 18 times a day about everyone’s schedule and after school and holidays,” she continued. “There is this element of, like, it isn’t a normal breakup.”
Mollen and Biggs met on the set of My Best Friend’s Girl in 2007. They got engaged the following year and tied the knot during a July 2008 ceremony. A rep for the couple confirmed their split to Us Weekly last month, saying that the estranged couple was on “great terms” despite their separation.

Mollen revealed what she knows about dating at this time of her life — and she’s not looking forward to it. So, she’s keeping romance on the back burner for now.
“The weirdest thing [is], I’ve been talking to people about being single today,” she said. “Nobody’s actually having conversations, they’re all staring at their phones, they’re all f***ing, like, I don’t know, playing this texting banter that there’s nothing behind it. It’s not real.”
