The Kristy Sarah Desmond Scott divorce is finished: the social media stars are now legally ex-spouses after a judge finalized their split, according to court records cited by TMZ.

The records show the former couple submitted a settlement agreement that deals with property division, custody and support. The specific terms of that agreement were not detailed in TMZ’s report.

Are Kristy Sarah and Desmond Scott divorced?

Yes. TMZ reports that court records show the divorce between Kristy Sarah and Desmond Scott has been finalized, ending their marriage after the case began earlier this year.

Divorce finalization means the court has accepted the parties’ agreement or issued the final order ending the marriage. In this case, the settlement submitted by Kristy and Desmond covers the major legal pieces that typically must be resolved before a divorce can close.

How the split reached court

TMZ previously reported that Kristy filed for divorce in January. In that filing, she said infidelity was the reason for the breakup, according to TMZ.

Desmond later addressed the situation publicly on Instagram, according to TMZ. He said he had told Kristy he wanted to separate after making choices he was “not proud of,” while also saying he had taken responsibility for his actions.

TMZ reported that Desmond did not spell out exactly what happened in that statement. That left the public pieces of the breakup coming from court filings, social media posts and later video obtained by the outlet.

What TMZ reported after the filing

After Kristy’s January filing, TMZ reported it obtained video showing Desmond kissing model Marissa Springer. The outlet later reported that Desmond began casually dating Dana Tran, who is also known publicly as Diddy’s ex and the mother of one of his children.

Those reports came after the divorce case was already underway. TMZ’s latest report says the legal side of the breakup has now reached its endpoint.

Kristy and Desmond built large followings through online content, making their split a closely watched influencer breakup. The final order moves the matter out of divorce court, though neither settlement details nor any private custody arrangements were disclosed in the report.

  • TMZ says the divorce has been finalized through court records.
  • The settlement addresses property, custody and support.
  • Kristy filed in January and cited infidelity, according to TMZ.
  • Desmond later said he made choices he was “not proud of,” but did not give details, TMZ reported.

Neither Kristy nor Desmond’s latest comments on the finalized divorce were included in TMZ’s report.
