ANNIVERSARY GIFT

‘ER’ Actress Files for Divorce From Top Chef Wife After One Year

The pair married in Mexico in May 2024 with Patricia Arquette, Gavin Rossdale and Mariska Hargitay among the 140 guests.

Maria Bello has given her wife Dominique Crenn a different kind of anniversary gift—a request for a divorce. The actress, 58, filed for divorce on Wednesday but said the couple separated on April 7, exactly a year from the date of their marriage, TMZ reported. Bello said the reason for the split was “irreconcilable differences.” Bello and Crenn, the first and only woman in the U.S. to earn three Michelin stars, have no children together so they will not have to negotiate custody or support. In the filling, according to TMZ, Bello requested that spousal support be agreed in writing by both sides and asked that mediation costs are split between the pair. It is not known if the couple had a prenup. Bello and Crenn, 60, first announced their romance in 2020, saying that they were already engaged. Last May, they revealed they had secretly got married in Cabo San Lucas in April with guests including Patricia Arquette, Gavin Rossdale and Mariska Hargitay. Bello came out in 2013 in a New York Times piece. She shares a 24-year-old son, Jackson Blue McDermott with former partner Dan McDermott, while Crenn has 10-year-old daughters, Olivia and Charlotte.
