Idina Menzel shared memories of her difficult breakup with Taye Diggs, which happened more than ten years ago. During a panel discussion at New York Comic Con on October 8, she revealed that their split in 2013 coincided with the release of the musical «If/Then» and the animated film «Frozen».
Menzel noted that at that time she was playing the role of Elizabeth in «If/Then», - where the plot centers on a woman searching for her identity. At the same time, she recorded the hit «Let It Go» for «Frozen». According to her, it was «very hard», - as Diggs was struggling with the popularity of the song, which was everywhere.
She added that working on these projects helped her cope with her emotions and filled her with joy and love. Menzel and Diggs met on Broadway in 1995 and married in 2003. They have a son, Walker, born in 2009, but the couple separated in 2013. Diggs has previously mentioned that he and Menzel try to prioritize their son’s interests and maintain a positive relationship with each other.
