Why Soap Stars Justin Hartley And Lindsay Korman Got A Divorce

Justin Hartley only became a household name after he joined the cast of “This is Us” as Kevin Pearson back in 2016. But before then, he and Lindsay Korman were well-known in the daytime television world because of their work in soaps. While Hartley made it big on “The Young and the Restless” after leaving “Passions,” Korman went on to score roles in “All My Children,” “Days of Our Lives,” and even “General Hospital.” According to The Sun, the couple got engaged in November 2003 and made things official six months later in May 2004. Hartley and Korman’s one and only daughter, Isabella Justice Hartley, was born that same year in July, per People.

Throughout their marriage, Hartley and Korman did what any other celebrity couple did at the time, attending red carpet events and Daytime Emmy Awards shows along with movie premieres. But Korman filed for divorce and cited the all-too-familiar “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their split in 2012. Hartley quickly moved on with fellow “The Young and the Restless” and “Days of Our Lives” star Chrishell Stause in October 2013, as detailed by Us Weekly. But after Hartley decided to end his marriage to Stause in 2019 Korman came to his defense.
