Scooter Braun and Yael Cohen Braun are said to be going their separate ways, after seven years of being together as husband and wife, TMZ reports.
According to the report, a document obtained by the outlet shows that Scooter Braun filed for divorce from Yael Cohen in Los Angeles court on Wednesday, July 21.
TMZ, citing the filing, reported Scooter is asking for joint custody of their three children, Jagger, 6, Levi, 4, and Hart, 2 and has agreed to pay Yael spousal support.
Scooter Braun and Yael split was first reported last week, but nothing was confirmed, until Wednesday after the court document.
The divorce seems amicable, as Scooter Braun and Yael have gone back and forth, and this wouldn’t be the first time a celebrity divorce was pulled after a reconciliation. That said, so far there is no reconciliation, TMZ report added.
Also quoting a close source to the couple, E-News reported that the unnamed source said the two were “separating.” And while an insider close to Yael noted the former couple had “been going through a rough patch for several months,” the insider suggested the duo remained hopeful they could make things work.
“They wanted to take time apart where they could each focus on their kids and give the relationship a break,” this insider said. “They aren’t giving up on the marriage and are hopeful they can find a way to make it work. But for now, being apart is for the best.”
Still, a source said “things are very amicable” between the exes. “They are very close,” this insider added. “The kids are the most important thing to them and that’s their real priority here.”
In fact, this source said the parents were out in Montecito, Calif. with their kids earlier this month and that they “are still operating as a family.”
“There are no other parties or interest in dating anyone new,” this source continued, “they are focused on their family.”
The ex-couple began dating in 2013 and wed in July 2014
Scooter had posted a seven-year wedding anniversary tribute to Instagram and Yael called them “a team 4lyfe.”
“If just for the kids you have given me everything,” Scooter wrote alongside a photo of them on their big day. “But thanks to you I have grown, I have been pushed to be the best version of myself and to continue growing and learning. That all happened because you came in to my life. 7 years. The adventure is just beginning. Thank you Yae. I love you . Happy anniversary.”
