It’s been a tumultuous month since “Doc” star and Hallmark Channel fan favorite Scott Wolf and his wife, former MTV “The Real World” star Kelley Wolf, announced that they were divorcing after 21 years of marriage.
The Wolfs’ divorce news took fans by surprise on June 10, 2025, but even more shocking was how quickly circumstances spiraled after their separate announcements, from Kelley’s hospitalization to Scott being granted temporary custody of their kids. With multiple court decisions due in early July, the coming days will be highly consequential for the former couple and their family. Here’s the latest…
Scott Wolf’s Restraining Order Against Kelley Wolf Expires on July 9
GettyKelley was the first to announce her and Scott’s impending divorce, sharing the news in an Instagram post on June 10. Scott then followed with his own statement to People on June 11, calling it the “hardest decision” he’d ever made to file for divorce. In a stunning twist, Kelley was detained by police on June 13 and placed under an involuntary hold at a local mental health hospital, she later confirmed.
Then, on June 26, Today.com reported, a Utah judge granted Scott temporary sole custody of their kids — Jackson, 16, Miller, 12, and Lucy, 11. The judge also issued a temporary restraining order requiring that Kelley have no contact with Scott, their kids, or his brother Michael, who had stayed with the kids at the family’s house while Scott was filming in Los Angeles.
A custody hearing was scheduled for July 1, per Us Weekly, to decide if Kelley would be allowed supervised parent time and to discuss any financial matters. Those discussions have not been made public. Meanwhile, the restraining order remains in effect until July 9, according to the outlet, unless a judge makes changes before then.
Kelley Wolf Has Been Leaning on Friends for Food & Company, She Says
Kelley, who’s worked for years as a certified life coach, has shared dozens of Instagram Stories and posts since her release from the hospital in late June, insisting that she is doing well. She initially stayed at a Park City resort while Scott traveled with their kids.
She eventually returned to their family’s home, which the restraining order said Scott and the kids had exclusive use of, per Us Weekly. Sharing videos in her Instagram Stories, she filled her SUV with some of her belongings and the family’s dogs with the help of friend Josef Kirk Myers, who spent several days with her.
Kelley wrote in multiple Instagram Stories that she was heading to European cities like Paris and Spain, but has spent the last week at a Utah cabin she posts from frequently, writing on June 29, “I am at a friends place now and eating her food and they are making me laugh.”
In a couple of videos, she has shown videos or photos of people cooking for her or delivering food, but covered their faces because they asked not to be shown on camera. In a post on July 4, she wrote that “peace is a state of mind” and that she is “ready to begin again.”
Wearing the same floral skirt and plaid flannel shirt she’d been seen in several days of a videos, Kelley posted in her Stories on July 3, “I feel like I just had, I don’t even know, 10 people, and now I’m alone, and we all know how much I like to just relax, listen to music. So, ready? Yes, I have not changed my clothes in a few days.”
On July 5, she excitedly posted several Instagram Stories about a friend named Angela Stem coming to visit her, tagging her repeatedly. Kelley posted videos of herself shopping for groceries in preparation, writing that her heart was racing about her friend visiting, and she later posted a photo of a charcuterie board on the deck.
Kelley did not share any visuals of her friend, but the Arkansas native wrote in her Stories, “This is my Arkansas happiness…we love good food…good music. Quiet and good people…but we know how to do this… Let’s go baby! Angela is here!!!” Stem has since made her Instagram profile private.
