Abbott Elementary Star Quinta Brunson Divorces Husband Kevin Jay Anik After 3 Years of Marriage, Citing ‘Irreconcilable Differences’

Actress Quinta Brunson, known for her role in Abbott Elementary, has recently filed for divorce from her husband Kevin Jay Anik, three years after their marriage. According to papers obtained by Entertainment Weekly, the separation is due to unresolvable differences between the couple.

Moving forward in the records, Brunson indicates that each partner is responsible for their own legal expenses. Additionally, it was disclosed that they had signed a Postnuptial Agreement, which outlines how their assets will be distributed.

Brunson and Jay Anik were together for quite some time before they got married in October 2021. Although their relationship was mostly kept private, the actress did acknowledge her husband back in 2022 during a public event where she accepted an Emmy Award for her performance in a comedy series.

In her heartfelt speech following her win, the Big Mouth star expressed a hopeful yet humble sentiment: “If I don’t find myself back up here again,” she said. She went on to express gratitude towards her family, particularly her parents, siblings, extended family, and her devoted husband for his unwavering support. Additionally, she acknowledged her exceptional cast and the show itself for assisting her in creating this remarkable series and pilot.

During an interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2022, the actress expressed admiration for her spouse, who allows her to fully express herself without constraints.

She expressed that it takes a considerable amount of things which many men may not have time for, in order for her to truly be herself. Brunson further explained that her husband provides unwavering support, meaning she doesn’t need to tone herself down at all. This allows her to love him wholeheartedly and be the person she is meant to be.

In the professional sphere, I’m thrilled to be featured in the fourth season of the ABC series, where I take on the role of Janine Teagues.

Or, more conversational: I’ve got a great gig going for me! I’ll be starring in the fourth season of an ABC show as the character Janine Teagues.
