Darin Brooks and Kelly Kruger have finalized their divorce.
According to court documents exclusively obtained by Us, the marriage dissolution of Brooks, 42, and Kruger became official on Tuesday, July 28. The soap opera actors cited irreconcilable differences as the cause of their separation.
As outlined in their settlement agreement, Brooks and Kruger, 43, will retain ownership of the vehicles registered in their respective names, along with all personal property—including furniture, appliances, clothing, jewelry, and other personal items.
Both will maintain control over their individual financial accounts and retirement assets. Furthermore, they will keep personal earnings acquired from December 31, 2025, which marks their official date of separation.
Brooks will retain his cryptocurrencies, with a portion being allocated to Kruger. Meanwhile, Kruger will keep all inherited assets.
The couple will share joint legal custody and parenting time for their two children, Everleigh, 6, and Gemma, 4, according to the documents. They have waived their rights to spousal support and agreed that no monthly child support will be exchanged at this time. Both are responsible for half of their children’s health insurance costs and will share expenses for other healthcare needs.
Earlier this year, Kruger and Brooks quietly announced their separation after a decade of marriage.
“We’re committed to coparenting our two children and remaining friends,” the ex-couple expressed in a joint statement to TV Insider.
