<p>
Following their divorce, they continued to work closely together as bandmates until The White Stripes disbanded in 2011. Jack later revealed in interviews that communication was often difficult with <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meg_White">Meg</a> and that she rarely expressed enthusiasm about his work, even in moments of success. He also acknowledged her talent and stage presence as a drummer, noting that their musical rapport often transcended their personal differences.
