Margaret Qualley Jack Antonoff Divorce Filed in Brooklyn

The Margaret Qualley Jack Antonoff divorce is official on paper: the actor and the Grammy-winning producer have filed to end their marriage after three years, and the timeline is oddly quiet for a celebrity split.

What the court records show

According to the Daily Herald, citing court records, the case was filed on Friday in Kings County Supreme Court in Brooklyn, New York. It is listed as an uncontested matrimonial action, which is the legal way of saying nobody is fighting about it.

Qualley is listed as the plaintiff and Antonoff as the defendant. Attorneys for both did not immediately respond to requests for comment when the news broke on Monday.

The Associated Press, in its report on the filing, also pointed to the Brooklyn court records as the source. Qualley is thirty-two and Antonoff is forty-two, and the couple separated in July.

A joint decision, by all accounts

Several outlets say the split looks cooperative. The New York Daily News, citing People, reported that the divorce was jointly filed and uncontested. A source close to the couple told People, "Jack and Margaret are filing for divorce jointly," and added, "This is a mutual decision."

Page Six reported that both sides also turned in a settlement agreement alongside the petition, according to Intouch Weekly. The agreement is still being processed and has not been made public, so nobody outside the case knows how assets will be divided.

The same coverage notes that People described the relationship as "rocky" in a July report. That fits the timeline, since the separation happened that month and the paperwork followed a few months later.

How the Qualley Antonoff story began

The pair started dating in 2021 and married in August 2023 in New Jersey. According to the East Bay Times, which ran the New York Daily News report, guests included Taylor Swift, Zoe Kravitz and Lana Del Rey.

That guest list says a lot about Antonoff's world. He fronts Bleachers, and he is a fourteen-time Grammy winner who has worked with artists including Taylor Swift, Lana Del Rey and Sabrina Carpenter, as the Daily Herald notes.

Qualley is best known for films like The Substance and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. She is also the daughter of movie star Andie MacDowell, which made the couple a fixture of red carpets and fan edits alike.

Why people are paying attention

Part of the pull is the crossover. Pop fans follow Antonoff because of the albums he helps shape, while film fans follow Qualley because of her breakout roles. When a relationship sits in both lanes, a divorce filing lands in both feeds at once.

Part of it is also the contrast with the usual celebrity breakup cycle. There are no leaked messages or public statements trading blame here, only a court docket entry and a mutual-decision line from a source.

For now, the facts are thin and the filings are the main evidence. Neither Qualley nor Antonoff has put out a public statement, and the settlement terms are still under wraps. If either side speaks up, or if the terms surface, that is where the story would move next.

What an uncontested filing usually means

An uncontested matrimonial action means both spouses agree the marriage should end and are not asking a judge to settle disputes. In practice that tends to be faster and far more private than a contested case, because there is less to argue over in open court.

That is why the Margaret Qualley Jack Antonoff divorce may stay low-key. The settlement agreement filed alongside the petition suggests the big questions were handled privately before anything reached the docket, though its contents remain unreported.

It also explains why the early coverage leans on court records and sources close to the couple rather than on statements from the two of them. Until a representative or either person says more, anything beyond the filing details is speculation, and it is worth treating it that way.

What to watch next

The next real milestones are procedural. A court will need to process the paperwork and the settlement agreement, and nothing in the reporting says when that will wrap up.

Fans of both careers will also be watching for any public comment. Antonoff keeps working across pop production, and Qualley keeps building her film résumé, so the two will keep showing up in headlines for their work, with or without this story.
