21-Year Marriage Shatters: Scott Wolf's Divorce Drama Takes Shocking Turn
Divorce Drama Unfolds: Scott Wolf's Ex-Wife Kelley Accuses Cops of Brutality, Claims Mental Health Hold Abuse
In a shocking turn of events, Scott Wolf's divorce battle with estranged wife Kelley has taken a dramatic twist, with allegations of police brutality and mental health hold abuse making headlines. The Party of Five actor, 57, filed for divorce from Kelley after 21 years of marriage and three children together.
Just days later, Kelley found herself detained by police and taken to a Utah hospital for a mental health evaluation. She claims she was placed under an involuntary mental health hold "again" by police earlier this month. The incident sparked a heated debate about police treatment of individuals with mental health issues.
The drama unfolded on June 25 when Scott Wolf requested a temporary restraining order against Kelley, citing concerns about her behavior and potential harm to their children. A judge granted the TRO, stating that Kelley had engaged in an "escalating pattern of behavior" that posed a substantial threat to the couple's minor children.
However, in a stunning development, the restraining order was dropped after Scott and Kelley reached an agreement earlier this week. The deal includes terms regarding visitation, communication, and finances. Under the agreement, Kelley will be allowed supervised time with her children, including phone or video calls.
The estranged couple has also been prohibited from discussing certain topics in front of their kids, including adult issues, divorce, and their relationship with each parent. A gag order has been put in place, preventing either party from posting or commenting about the other on social media.
Kelley's claims of police brutality have sparked outrage among mental health advocates and concerned citizens. Sharing a photo of her bruised arm on Instagram, Kelley alleged that she was "thrown down the stairs" by cops while under an involuntary mental health hold at Sundance Resort.
"This is from the police," she wrote. "I will get myself safe but I'm asking for help. Thrown down stairs. Broke my wrist, Contusions on my head. I'm bruised everywhere and I literally was released last night."
A Summit County Police Department spokesman denied Kelley's claims, stating that they were not involved in any incident at Sundance Resort on July 6. The department confirmed that the resort is located outside of their jurisdiction.
As the drama continues to unfold, Scott Wolf has been granted sole custody of their three children: Jackson, 16, Miller, 12, and Lucy, 11. Kelley will be allowed supervised time with her kids, with the goal of eventually regaining unsupervised visits in the future.
The agreement also outlines financial arrangements, with Scott covering Kelley's living expenses, car payments, credit card bills, and some attorney fees. Kelley will receive $10,000 per month to cover her costs.
In a shocking twist, Kelley's brother-in-law Michael Wolf entered a declaration in the matter, stating that his sister is "ready to fight like hell" for her children.
"It's so sad for the kids, but Kelley is ready to fight like hell for her children," he said. "It is not warranted, it's cruel. And it's incorrect."
As the divorce battle rages on, the focus remains on ensuring the well-being and safety of Scott and Kelley's three minor children.
