The once-heated divorce between actor Scott Wolf and wellness coach Kelley Wolf seems to have settled, at least on the surface. But for Kelley, this new calm came with a personal heartbreak: the loss of custody of her children.
Kelley recently took to Instagram, where she shared a serene video from a cabin getaway. In it, she’s lighting a candle, holding a small dog, and quietly listening to music. Her comment section was locked, and the caption was more reflective than revealing. She thanked fans, said love makes the world go round, and reminded everyone that even when life feels heavy, you are special. While peaceful on the outside, the video has raised eyebrows, some wonder if she’s masking a deeper pain or quietly hopeful that the current custody arrangement won’t last forever.
It’s been a rough year for both Kelley and Scott. The most serious moment came on June 13, when a police call was made from their home. According to People, it was a “family fight,” and when officers arrived, Kelley had been making concerning statements to both relatives and police. They didn’t arrest her, but they did take her to a nearby hospital for mental health support.
Kelley didn’t handle the situation quietly. She later posted a series of emotional Instagram stories saying she was being taken “against her will” and asked people to check on her children. Shortly after that, Scott filed for, and was granted, sole legal and physical custody of their kids, along with a restraining order.
Some close to the family, including longtime friend Billy Bush, are trying to stay optimistic. He said Kelley is getting the help she needs, that her parents are by her side, and that both she and Scott are “beautiful people” who just found themselves in a very difficult situation.
For now, Kelley is allowed to visit the children, but only under strict supervision. She’s also been legally barred from posting anything about Scott, their divorce, or their children on social media. Breaking those rules could land her in more trouble, with potential fines or even jail time.
This chapter in their family story may be quieter than the chaos that came before, but it’s still incredibly emotional. While Scott focuses on the kids, Kelley seems to be focusing on herself, trying to heal and find stability in the aftermath of a very public, very painful split.
