Abby Elliott Files for Divorce From Husband Bill Kennedy

The July 17 filing opens a family‑court case that seeks joint custody, requests spousal support for Elliott, limits Kennedy's eligibility for support, plus asks that he cover her attorney fees.

Overview

  • Elliott filed for divorce on Friday, July 17, listing July 8 as the date of separation and citing irreconcilable differences.
  • Court documents show she is seeking joint legal and physical custody of their two children, daughter Edith, 5, and son William, 3.
  • The paperwork requests spousal support for Elliott while asking the court to terminate its ability to grant spousal support to Kennedy.
  • She also seeks that Kennedy pay her attorney fees and the filing represents the opening stage of family‑court proceedings that may be settled or litigated later.
  • The initial reports are based on court records obtained by TMZ and other outlets, and neither Elliott nor Kennedy had issued a public comment at the time of reporting.
