Britney Spears & Other Celebs Who Were Dumped Via Text

Seemingly picture-perfect celeb couple, Crishell Stause and Justin Hartley ended their marriage after just two years. Stause is an actor, a real estate agent, and star of Netflix’s hit reality series, “Selling Sunset.” Hartley is an actor known for his roles on “The Young and the Restless,” “This is Us,” and many more. Hartley and Stause both came from the world of soap operas, though they’ve gone in different career directions since. In 2013, they were introduced by Stause’s “Days of Our Lives” costar. As far as Hartley was concerned, there was no question that Stause was the one for him. He told People, “I knew right away [and] was like, ‘Oh boy, here we go.’” The couple married four years later on the anniversary of the day they met. However, it didn’t take long for “irreconcilable differences” to get in the way. 

Hartley filed for divorce in 2019, and Stause opened up about the unpleasant way he did it on “Selling Sunset.” “He text[ed] me that we were filed,” she shared with fellow “Selling Sunset” star Mary Fitzgerald. She added that, “Forty-five minutes later, the world knew.” While Hartley cited “irreconcilable differences,” Stause later shared that Hartley’s current wife, Sofia Pernas, was likely a factor. “My ex-husband Justin is remarried to someone I know from back in the day, pretty well, and a lot of things made sense after finding that out,” she said, adding, “It felt like a little bit of closure.”
