Jaime King and Austin Sosa Finalize Secret Marriage's Divorce

A Los Angeles judge finalized Jaime King and Austin Sosa's divorce on October 2, 2026, less than two years after their secret wedding.

The judgment also shows that Sosa reserved his right to seek spousal support from King, while the court terminated its ability to award spousal support to King from Sosa. The former couple did not have any children together. Female First likewise reports that the divorce is now finalized, closing out a marriage that Page Six says lasted less than two years after the pair secretly tied the knot.

The speed and secrecy are what make the story stand out. Page Six exclusively revealed in January that King, 47, and Sosa, 34, an investment banker, secretly wed on April 23, 2025 — months before King publicly announced their engagement that July, when her rep said she was 'embracing a joyful new chapter.' Sosa then filed to end the marriage in January 2026, citing 'irreconcilable differences' and listing November 11, 2025, as the date of separation. In June, Page Six reports, Sosa moved to expedite the divorce with a declaration for a default or uncontested dissolution, stating the exes had no shared assets or debts for the court to divide.

King told Page Six at the time that the filing caught her completely off guard. 'I was completely blindsided by the divorce filing, which came out of nowhere,' she said, adding, 'I was with Austin the night before it became public, and while like many marriages, we had normal challenges, I genuinely believed we were working on our relationship.' Female First quotes her from Us Weekly striking a similar note: 'This is deeply personal and should remain private, and I hope people will stop making assumptions.' According to BollywoodShaadis, the judgment means Sosa may seek spousal support from King, not the reverse.

The filing came shortly after Page Six exclusively reported that the 'White Chicks' and 'Sin City' actress had been spotted getting cozy with hotelier Vikram Chatwal during multiple Los Angeles outings. BollywoodShaadis recounts sources saying the two looked affectionate at the Chateau Marmont and were later seen at Chatwal's Bombay Palace restaurant. King denied any romance, telling outlets that 'any recent interactions being referenced publicly were strictly professional business meetings and have no connection to this private matter.' Business Upturn notes there is no established evidence in the divorce proceedings showing King was unfaithful to Sosa.

This is King's second finalized divorce in roughly three years. Page Six notes she and filmmaker Kyle Newman, her first husband of 17 years, finalized their contentious divorce in September 2023 after she filed in 2020. The outlet also reports Newman received sole physical custody of their sons James and Leo in March 2025 after King failed to complete a court-ordered drug and alcohol rehabilitation program, with the exes continuing to share legal custody while King was granted supervised visitation. Female First, citing Us Weekly, quotes King saying her focus is 'chilling' with her kids rather than planning wedding extravaganzas.

With the court closing the marriage without a trial and no children or shared assets to divide, Business Upturn frames King as entering 'another new chapter,' with her focus potentially shifting back to her work and her children. King's rep did not immediately respond to Page Six's request for comment on the finalized judgment. Both outlets caution that the actress has pushed back against public assumptions about her private life, urging people to stop what she called unfair and disproportionate scrutiny of women simply for doing their jobs. For now, the file is closed and both parties are legally single again.
