Though the Bravolebrity didn't want to share specific details relating to their drama, she did admit the split is "still very hard to talk about."
"I'm taking one day at a time," she noted. "I don't know what the future holds, but right now my focus is on being the best mom to Cruz."
Cartwright concluded her announcement by asking fans to "pray for us," adding that she believes "everything will be just fine" no matter the outcome of their current marriage woes.
