Clay dialed the concept of amicable exes up to eleven when he and his former spouse came out of the institution of marriage while maintaining their relationship as a couple.
It might be a tad bit confusing to wrap your head around it but bear with us here.
During an episode of Conan from 2017, Clay came to promote a show that he and his former spouse were doing: My Kitchen Rules.
So, the talk show host addressed the situation as it was. But Clay cut him off and said,
"We're married but not like the way you think."
He explained he was divorced, but he and his wife never broke apart. Essentially, they were still together, but they were divorced.
Narrating the story of how it all came to be, the actor recalled the day that he and his spouse decided to get a divorce.
He remembered it being a beautiful day in LA. He and his wife were outside when he caught a stroke of genius.
"I got a great idea," he said to his wife. "Why don't we go get divorced? And then, we could go get dinner."
His wife understood what he meant and complied. They later went to an upscale West Hollywood restaurant to celebrate their divorce.
Evidently, the couple had excellent chemistry.
