Amanda Seyfried surprised fans by sharing a cuddly, smiling photo with her estranged husband Thomas Sadoski, and even more puzzling was the fact he was still wearing his wedding ring.
The image showed them head-to-head with their arms wrapped around each other and standing in a rural setting that might have been her farm in Upstate New York.
The 40-year-old actress posted the black-and-white shot on her Instagram Stories on Sunday, less than two months after the couple announced their separation, and tagged Sadoski, 50.
While the Life in Pieces actor's wedding band was on prominent display, Seyfried's hands were hidden behind his back.
However, she wasn't wearing a ring on her wedding finger while attending the Netflix premiere of Steps in New York City on Sunday, opting instead for a ring on her middle finger.
As if to further prove their split was both amicable and normalized, she also reposted a quote from divorce consultant Olivia Howell on how to make divorce 'boring' rather than toxic.

'Because the system thrives on confusion and stigma, on making you believe you’re the first one to ever walk this road,' Howell’s snippet read.
'But when divorce becomes just another life transition — like a wedding, like a graduation — the patriarchy loses one of its most effective weapons.'
One Reddit user commented: ‘Wonder what ended the marriage,’ while another stated: ‘She so beautiful [sic]…. can you imagine losing her.'
A third commended: 'Rare adulting in Hollywood.'
The social media share comes just three weeks after Seyfried rambled through a red carpet interview at the Academy Museum Gala in Los Angeles.
The Mamma Mia! star raised eyebrows with her vague and philosophical remarks.
She later joked about her own baffling stream of words in the comments: 'What AM I even saying?'
It began when the mother-of-two was asked by The Hollywood Reporter how her life is going, which prompted an unusual response from Seyfried.
Seyfried - who also included a photo of her getting her makeup and hair done before the Netflix premiere of Steps in New York City on Sunday - may have wanted to prove their split was both amicable and normalized

'We have been separated for a while, and it's proven to be the right move for us and our family unit. We've got each other forever — and it's good,' they said in a joint statement to People. Above, Seyfried and Sadoski in 2015
'It's interesting,' Seyfried answered with what appeared to be a nervous laugh and smile.
When the interviewer said it's really hard to do interviews right now, she agreed and said: 'Yeah, but it's a… for a good reason.'
'Like, I don't know, I think everything that's happening is meant to happen, everything - everyone that's in your life is meant to be in your life. That's just kind of - it's - and I'm here tonight, I'm meant to be here, I get to go home tomorrow and I'm meant to be home and so on and so forth and then some.'
When asked about things she likes to talk about, Seyfried responded: 'I like to talk about, you know, the emus, I like to talk about the emus. And I like to talk about Halloween. And you can engage with me if you want to talk about all things having to do with like apple pie and like olives and you know, like really good hard ciders.'

Seyfried and Sadoski met in 2015 when they worked together on the off-Broadway play The Way We Get By.
They got engaged later that year before eloping in 2017.

'We eloped. We just took off into the country with an officiant and, just the two of us, and we did our thing,' Sadoski said at the time.
'It was beautiful. It was everything that it should be. It was just the two of us talking to each other.’
Seyfried, who has daughter Nina, nine, and Thomas, five, with the actor, previously admitted that she cherishes her 'alone time.'
'I sit and I crochet, or I go to the gym in the barn, or I go out to coffee with a fellow parent or a friend upstate,' Seyfried told People in 2024.
The Golden Globe and Emmy winner, who lives on a farm in upstate New York, added: 'I get a lot of alone time on a train when I go to the city. If I have to go to the city, I take the train. And I get like an hour and 40 minutes of alone time each way.
'And I'm always crocheting. Knitting, crocheting, that's my lifestyle,' she added.
