The tumultuous divorce of actor Scott Wolf has taken a dramatic and public turn with the arrest of his estranged wife, Kelley Limp. The 56-year-old was booked into a Utah jail on a class B misdemeanour charge of harassment, according to local law enforcement records.
The arrest, which occurred on a recent Wednesday, is the latest development in what appears to be an increasingly bitter separation. The couple, who married in 2004 and share two children, have been embroiled in divorce proceedings since Scott filed in May 2022.
A Contentious Split
Court documents reveal a relationship that has soured significantly. Scott Wolf, best known for his roles in 'Party of Five' and 'Nancy Drew', cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split. He has formally requested joint legal and physical custody of their children.
The situation escalated when Kelley filed a response in July 2022, contesting Scott's claims and alleging that he had engaged in 'habitual drinking and other inappropriate behaviour'. She further accused him of being 'emotionally absent and abusive', painting a picture of a deeply fractured marriage.
Financial Strains and Legal Battles
The financial aspects of the divorce have also become a point of contention. Kelley has requested spousal support, highlighting a significant disparity in their earning capacities. Scott's legal team has countered, alleging that Kelley has 'dissipated community assets', a serious claim that suggests the misuse of marital funds.
This arrest for harassment adds a new, more serious layer to their legal battles, moving the conflict beyond civil court and into the realm of criminal law. The specific details leading to the harassment charge have not been made public at this time.
The case continues to develop, with representatives for both parties yet to release official statements regarding the arrest. This story continues to unfold.
