Breaking her silence about her divorce with husband and comedian Will Arnett, actor says "getting a divorce really sucks".

Poehler addressed the separation in her forthcoming memoir, Yes Please, which will hit the stalls October 28, reports eonline.com.

The break-up was "too sad" and "too personal" to discuss in detail, she writes in her book.

"When you are a person going through a divorce you feel incredibly alone, yet you are constantly reminded by society of how frequently divorce happens and how common it has become. You aren't allowed to feel special, but no one knows the specific ways you are in pain," she added.

The duo announced their seperation in September 2012, after nine years of marriage.

Two years later, Arnett filed for divore. Since then, both of them refrained from commenting about the split.
