America’s favorite TV teacher is headed to divorce court in real life as “Abbott Elementary” star Quinta Brunson has filed to end her marriage to Kevin Jay Anik.
The Emmy Award winner cited irreconcilable differences but listed their date of separation as “TBD,” according to divorce documents filed Wednesday and obtained by People.
Brunson, 35, says she and Anik have a postnuptial agreement in place, and she’s requesting the court split up their property according to that agreement. She has also requested they each be responsible for their own attorney’s fees.
Brunson has been married to the sales manager since October 2021, though they’ve kept their relationship largely low-profile. She announced their engagement on social media in 2020, but did not confirm they’d tied the knot until referring to Anik as her husband at the 2022 Emmys.
“I need to thank… my wonderful husband because he’s the most supportive man I’ve ever known,” she said when accepting the award for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series.
The actress has not publicly commented on the divorce filing.
