Actor Scott Wolf and his wife Kelley are getting a divorce.
The Party Of Five alum, who currently stars as Dr. Richard Miller on the Fox medical drama Doc , confirmed the split Wednesday, telling The Times in a statement, 'After 21 years of marriage, I have made the most difficult decision of my life, and filed for divorce from my wife Kelley.'
Kelley Wolf posted the news of the split on Tuesday on social media.
'This has been a long, quiet journey for me — rooted in hope, patience, and care for our children,' she wrote. 'While I will not speak publicly about the details, I feel peace knowing that I've done everything I can to walk this path with integrity and compassion.'
She called Scott Wolf 'one of the best fathers I've ever known and one of the best partners a woman could have the privilege of sharing life with. He is kind, thoughtful, funny, and beautiful in spirit.'
Both of them noted that they were focused on their kids, with Scott, 57, saying they were 'the loves of our lives' and Kelley, 48, calling them 'the most extraordinary children.' They share sons Jackson, 16, and Miller, 12, and daughter Lucy, 11.
The actor met the star of MTV's The Real World: New Orleans through mutual friends in 2002 on a blind date that almost didn't happen.
'We were meeting at a restaurant and she wound up turning up almost a full hour late,' the actor said in 2021 on Access Hollywood .
'I was asking other people at the bar. I was like, 'How long do you wait for a blind date?' And they were like, 'Kind of an hour tops.' So she made it under the wire.'
Turns out she was stuck in 'horrible' New York traffic, he said. They married in 2004 in her hometown of Fayetteville, Arkansas, and honeymooned in Africa. – Los Angeles Times/Tribune News Service

Miley Cyrus blamed for dad Billy Ray's smoking habit on 'Hannah Montana' set
Miley Cyrus says she caught some flack for her dad's pot habit on the set of the Disney Channel series 'Hannah Montana'. Photo: TNS Miley Cyrus says she caught some flack for her dad's pot habit on the set of the Disney Channel series Hannah Montana . The Grammy winner, 32, shed some light on her child star days while appearing on Thursday's (June 19) episode of Sorry We're Cyrus , the podcast hosted by her mum, Tish, and big sister Brandi. Asked about an amusing 'core memory' from making the teen sitcom co-starring her father, Miley said: 'Dad smoking pot and everyone blaming me for it.' Tish said she remembered the drama, noting that once everyone realised it was actually Billy Ray toking on the set, people on the show kept calling her to say 'B-Ray was smoking pot.' She said she refused to believe it at the time, and tried blaming Miley's co-star Mitchel Musso instead. 'It was Mitchel Musso! It was both,' Miley replied with a laugh. During the episode, the famous family also addressed when Tish 'mysteriously' – as Miley teased – unfollowed her on Instagram last month, prompting speculation about the state of their relationship. Miley at the time dismissed the rumour mill, saying that though she 'rarely' bothers weighing in on the grapevine, her mum is her 'best friend' and the two 'are too tight for anything to ever come between us.' Much like Tish responded to one of her own followers, Cyrus said the move was a 'simple, coincidental and uninteresting' mistake, despite occurring just hours after Billy Ray broadcast how excited he was to see his daughter. They had their own dust-up in July 2024, when he apparently called Miley and Tish 'skanks' in texts and audio obtained by multiple outlets. About a year prior, Tish and youngest daughter Noah – who reportedly had a relationship with her new stepdad Dominic Purcell, before he wed her mum – put their own reported feud to bed. – New York Daily News

Actor calls out Madonna for using iPad during Broadway musical 'Hamilton'
In 2013, Madonna was caught furiously texting during the New York Film Festival premiere of '12 Years A Slave'. Photo: TNS Former Hamilton star Anthony Ramos is calling out Madonna for being on her iPad the entire time she was in the audience of the Tony-winning Broadway hit. While appearing on Watch What Happens Live this week, the Brooklynite, 33, exposed the Queen of Pop's lack of etiquette after Andy Cohen asked him to identify 'the most terrifying celebrity' he'd seen in the crowd during his run in Hamilton . 'The most terrifying was Madonna with an iPad in her face … the whole time,' recalled Ramos, who originated the roles of John Laurens and Philip Hamilton. 'I was like, damn, shorty, if you're not enjoying it that much, you know the door's right there. You ain't gotta stay here.' In 2015, Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda — who also originated the role of the titular Founding Father — wrote in a since-deleted tweet that 'tonight was the first time I asked stage management NOT to allow a celebrity (who was texting all through Act 2) backstage,' according to A source told the outlet at the time that Madge not only arrived late to the show, but used her phone multiple times during both acts. The Hamilton incident came about a year-and-a-half after Madonna was caught furiously texting during the New York Film Festival premiere of 12 Years A Slave in 2013. In the wake of that incident, the Alamo Drafthouse cinema chain said she was banned from their theatres until she issued an apology to moviegoers. However, Madonna might have mended her ways in the intervening years, having famously enacted a cellphone ban during her 2019 Madame X Tour. 'People loved it and appreciated it,' a promoter told London paper The Times . 'They could just enjoy the show and interact with each other with nothing obstructing the view.' A tour insider at the time also said Madonna was hoping to engender some 'intimacy' by playing smaller venues for screen-free crowds. – New York Daily News/Tribune News Service

Drake shares receipts of RM34.2mil in gambling losses
Drake took to social media Wednesday night to share the receipts of all the money he's lost from gambling on the crypto betting site Stake, which he's been a partner of for the last three years. Photo: TNS Money apparently ain't a thing for Drake as the hip-hop superstar revealed he lost more than US$8mil (RM34.2mil) in a single month, all thanks to sports betting. The rapper took to social media Wednesday night to share the receipts of all the money he's lost from gambling on the crypto betting site Stake, which he's been a partner of for the last three years. 'Gotta share the other side of gambling…' he wrote on his Instagram story alongside a screenshot of his losses. According to his post, Drake placed nearly US$125mil in bets over the past month, resulting in a loss of US$8.2mil. While he didn't specify which specific wagers led to his financial misfortune, the NBA and NHL playoffs have both been in full swing in the last four weeks. In another Instagram post, the 38-year-old revealed an US$800,000 bet on Game 6 of the NBA Finals on Thursday. With the Oklahoma City Thunder leading the series over the Indiana Pacers, Drake placed US$600,000 on an OKC win and another US$200,000 on them winning by a 6-10 point margin. The Pacers ended up winning handily, 108-91. Last month, the rapper bet US$1.25mil on the Toronto Maple Leafs to win Round 2, Game 7 of the NHL playoffs and advance to the Eastern Conference Final — only for his hometown hockey team to miss the mark to the Florida Panthers. According to Forbes, Drake has an estimated net worth of US$49mil, though that figure was last reported in 2020. It's believed his current net worth is closer to US$250mil. – New York Daily News/Tribune News Service
