Perla Ferrar, Slash’s wife of 13 years, has reportedly left the guitarist. According to TMZ, Ferrar unexpectedly flew to Hawaii, taking the couple’s two sons with her.

TMZ reports that Ferrar told Slash he had until New Year’s to solve the couple’s issues. However, the website has since reported that Slash filed for divorce on Tuesday, citing irreconcilable differences. He lists the date of separation as June 15.

The rocker seeks joint legal and physical custody of 12-year-old London and 10-year-old Cash.

This isn’t the first time Slash and Ferrar have had marriage troubles.  However, one source told TMZ “this time it’s different.”

Slash previously filed for divorce from Ferrar in 2010, citing “irreconcilable differences,” but he withdrew the petition two months later. The couple then renewed their vows in 2011.
