Margaret Qualley and Jack Antonoff filed for divorce on Oct. 30 after three years of marriage, People reports.
The filing ends a three-year marriage
Margaret Qualley and Jack Antonoff officially filed for divorce on October 30, 2026, after nearly three years of marriage, according to People, as cited by both Yahoo and Primetimer.
A source close to the couple told People that they are filing jointly and that the divorce is uncontested, calling it "a mutual decision."
The source added that the former couple "share a deep affinity and love for one another, and though their romantic partnership is ending, they will absolutely be lifelong friends."
The filing came roughly three months after news of their separation first surfaced in July 2026, when multiple sources told People the marriage had been "rocky" and that the two were "figuring things out."
From Brooklyn kisses to a star-studded wedding
The timeline, as reconstructed by Yahoo and Primetimer, traces a fast-moving romance: photographers spotted the pair kissing in Brooklyn in August 2021, and they made their first official appearance together at the 2022 Critics Choice Awards.
Qualley confirmed her engagement via Instagram in May 2022 after showing a ring at Cannes — which Primetimer notes Page Six valued at nearly $100,000.
They married on August 19, 2023, in New Jersey, with a guest list both outlets say included Taylor Swift, Lana Del Rey, Channing Tatum, Zoë Kravitz and Cara Delevingne, along with Qualley's mother Andie MacDowell.
Fans swarmed the rehearsal dinner near the Black Whale Bar & Fish House, and Yahoo reports Beach Haven police were called to disperse the crowd.
Antonoff on performing the breakup songs
The most striking post-split development, per Yahoo, is Antonoff's decision to keep performing the songs he wrote about the relationship while on tour with Bleachers.
In an October 25 interview with The Guardian — his first public comments on the separation, Yahoo reports — he called it "actually been really beautiful," describing audiences holding and celebrating what those songs mean now.
He admitted he considered changing his setlist but chose otherwise: "I would rather live through something publicly than even escape it privately."
What representatives and fans watched next
Fans began speculating in July 2026, when Antonoff attended Taylor Swift's wedding without Qualley and she removed their wedding photos from Instagram, Yahoo reports.
According to Primetimer, Qualley's representative rejected speculation about infidelity or trust issues, emphasizing the couple's mutual respect and privacy.
As recently as February 2026, a Vanity Fair cover story had Qualley saying they planned to have children "for sure," and crediting Antonoff with making her "feel more confident to explore all the parts of myself."
With an uncontested, joint filing, the legal end arrives smoothly — both outlets indicate the formerly private couple intends to close this chapter as amicably as they lived it.
