Katharine McPhee and Nick Cokas are getting divorced.

The 30 year old star, who was catapulted to the spotlight after finishing as runner-up in 'American Idol' in 2006, is in the process of legally ending her six-year marriage to the 47 year old hunk, who she wed at Beverly Hills Presbyterian Church in February 2008.

McPhee's publicist confirmed the news, telling People: "After six years of marriage, and having been separated for the past year, Katharine McPhee has filed for a dissolution of marriage from Nick Cokas. The two have an amicable relationship and will remain friends. They ask that people respect their privacy during this time."

The pair are believed to have "grown apart" and realised they weren't good together anymore.

A source close to the brunette beauty said: "It was just time. They'd grown apart and weren't right for each other anymore."
