Overview
- Ratajkowski disclosed Friday that her marriage to Sebastian Bear‑McClard collapsed after their son was born, saying the couple stopped having sex six months after the birth and separated less than a year later.
- She published a candid essay in The Cut accompanied by a photoshoot of her breastfeeding a doll, and wrote that she entered a deliberate post‑divorce hookup “mania” before deciding to stop because the encounters did not serve her or her son.
- Page Six quoted unnamed insiders who alleged Bear‑McClard cheated during the marriage, and the coverage recalled a 2023 Variety exposé that accused him of sexual misconduct involving teenage girls, allegations he has not publicly addressed.
- Public records and reporting show Ratajkowski filed for divorce in September 2022 and Page Six says the divorce was finalized last summer.
- The essay has refocused attention on postpartum sexual changes, stigma toward single mothers, and how celebrity narrative and tabloid reporting shape questions of reputation and accountability going forward.
