Court documents obtained by Us Weekly show that popular social media influencers Kristy Scott and Desmond Scott finalized key terms of their divorce months before the split became public.
The Split Felt Through Social Media
The former husband and wife, who many followers considered couple goals, signed an agreed final divorce decree following mediation, resolving the division of marital and separate assets and establishing custody arrangements for their two sons, Vance, 7, and Westin, 6. The agreement addresses the separation of the couple’s shared business interests, assets, and parental responsibilities.
The settlement closes a chapter that helped transform “The Scotts” from a young married couple documenting family life into one of social media’s most recognizable brands.
Financial analysts who track creator economies estimate the couple’s combined net worth between $5 million and $10 million.
While neither Kristy, 31, nor Desmond, 32. has publicly disclosed their exact finances, their revenue streams extended well beyond social media views.
Together, they amassed more than 25 million followers across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, generating lucrative sponsorship deals with major brands, while their production company, Meant To Be Films, became the engine behind their highly polished videos. Kristy’s rise in the creator economy was recognized when she landed on Forbes’ prestigious 30 Under 30 list.
The legal filings reveal that the divorce process was far less contentious than many celebrity splits, according to TMZ. Kristy was granted the exclusive right to designate the children’s primary residence within Harris County, Texas, while both parents will continue making educational decisions together.
One notable aspect of the agreement is what was not included. Court documents indicate there is no formal monthly child support arrangement. Instead, each parent will be responsible for paying the children’s expenses — an arrangement that suggests two parents with substantial earning power who preferred a negotiated settlement over a traditional support structure.
Questions surrounding a prenuptial agreement surfaced almost immediately after news of the split broke. Because Kristy and Desmond married in 2014, years before their social media empire exploded, reports indicate they did not enter the marriage with a prenup.
However, industry observers noted that the couple later established legal protections to address the increasingly complex business assets they built together — safeguards that likely helped streamline the divorce process and avoid a prolonged public battle over ownership rights, sponsorship contracts, and production assets.
The timing of the divorce also placed renewed attention on one of the couple’s most visible investments: their custom-built Texas mansion. For more than a year, followers watched construction progress on the sprawling luxury home through social media updates. The property became a symbol of the couple’s success and a recurring backdrop for their content.
Subsequent developments suggested Kristy remained in the home with the children, while Desmond established a separate residence.
According to People, the divorce filing itself contained a bombshell allegation. Kristy filed in December 2025, citing adultery after more than 11 years of marriage. Desmond later addressed the split publicly, acknowledging that he made choices he was not proud of and accepting responsibility for his actions, while emphasizing that co-parenting would remain his highest priority.
