It seemed like these two had it all but apparently This Is Us and former The Young and the Restless star Justin Hartley has filed for divorce from former Days of our Lives star Chrishell Hartley after just over two years of marriage.

Justin Hartley and Chrishell Hartley Call It Quits

TMZ broke the news Friday night that Justin claims irreconcilable differences as the reason and listed the date of separation as being back on July 8, 2019, which means that all the events they’ve appeared at lately, with one being as recently as last week, the two were already apart.

This is heartbreaking news for soap fans, who have loved the almost fairytale pairing, with almost every bit of their relationship — dating, engagement, wedding — making big news.

Acting Together
The two appeared on The Young and the Restless together, where he played Adam Newman and she played Bethany, but he skyrocketed to stardom as Kevin on the NBC hit This Is Us while Chrishell has her own Netflix series called Selling Sunset. They also appeared in a movie together called Another Time. Soap Hub sends our thoughts to both actors during this trying time.

More on Soap Opera History

Soap opera began in the early 1900s, as radio broadcasts. Soap companies were behind the conception of the daytime dramas because they wanted to sell soaps to stay-at-home-moms. They did their job and also launched a lifelong programming format, the soap opera.

Spanning more than nine decades, American sudsers have seen the rise and fall of daytime soaps.In the heyday of soaps in the early 1980s, there were up to 13 different soap operas broadcast. However, over the years, the number has declined. Currently, there are only four American soap operas on the air. They include Days of our Lives (DAYS), General Hospital (GH), The Young and the Restless (YR), The Bold and the Beautiful (BB).
