LOS ANGELES (AP) — The largely private relationship between Quinta Brunson and her husband of three years is over.

Brunson, the star and creator of the hit ABC series “Abbott Elementary,” filed to divorce Kevin Anik on Wednesday.

Her filing in Los Angeles Superior Court states the pair have an agreement they signed after marriage on how their assets should be divided in a divorce. They have no children together, so the divorce should be relatively straightforward and keep details about the breakup private.

Anik and Brunson dated for several years before marrying in October 2021, though both have been extremely private about their relationship. Brunson thanked Anik when she won an Emmy Award in 2022, which People magazine described as the first public confirmation they were married, and again when she won the best comedy actress Emmy in September.

People and other outlets’ profiles of Brunson and Anik’s relationship have few details about him, mostly noting that the actor called him “the most supportive man I’ve ever known” when she accepted an Emmy for writing “Abbott Elementary” in 2022.

Quinta Brunson Files for Divorce From Kevin Anik, Husband of Three Years

The divorce filing does not list a date the couple separated.

The filing was first reported Thursday by celebrity website TMZ.

In a surprising turn of events, Quinta Brunson, the Emmy-winning star of Abbott Elementary, has filed for divorce from her husband, Kevin Anik. The couple, who married three years ago, have reportedly decided to part ways after years of marriage.

While neither Brunson nor Anik have publicly shared the reasons behind their split, sources close to the couple suggest that the decision came after much consideration. The two had kept their relationship relatively private, and their marriage had been widely seen as one of Hollywood’s more low-profile unions. However, it seems that despite their best efforts, they were unable to work through the challenges that arose in their relationship.

Brunson, who skyrocketed to fame with the success of Abbott Elementary, has kept a low profile in her personal life, rarely sharing intimate details with the public. This move comes at a time when her career is at its peak, and she’s been recognized for her significant achievements in television. For Kevin Anik, the separation marks a major shift in his life as well, though not much is known about his personal ventures apart from his marriage to the actress.

As of now, there has been no official statement from the couple regarding their future plans or how they intend to navigate their separation. Fans and followers of the couple are left with more questions than answers as the two move forward with their individual lives.
