Abby Elliott Divorces Bill Kennedy After 10 Years

Abby Elliott filed for divorce from her husband of nearly a decade, Bill Kennedy, on Friday. 

The 39-year-old actress, who is known for playing the role of Natalie on the hit series The Bear, officially filed the divorce documents on July 17, per TMZ.

She listed the date of separation as July 8 and 'irreconcilable differences' was also listed as the reason behind the split.

Elliott has requested for joint legal and physical custody of their kids, according to the outlet. 

The star has also requested that Kennedy provide her spousal support and asked the court that he not be awarded any. She has also requested that the producer pay her legal fees.  

Daily Mail has reached out to a rep for Elliott for comment, but has yet to hear back. 

The actress first crossed paths with Kennedy on set of the 2014 movie Sex Ed, which he had written. 

Elliott had been one of the cast members at the time including Glen Powell, Haley Joel Osment and Lorenza Izzo. 

That same year, the actress and film producer sparked up a romance. In October 2015, shortly before Halloween, he popped the big question. 

'We've been dating for a year-and-a-half, I think. It was a surprise,' the actress recalled to The Knot in a past interview. 

She explained that Kennedy, 'did it in our apartment and it was beautiful. There were flowers everywhere.' 

Elliott said that the producer had gotten her out of the apartment so a friend could decorate for the proposal. 

After they grabbed a drink at the bar, the pair went back to find the apartment filled with flowers and candles which created a romantic atmosphere.
