Kelley Wolf, the former reality‑TV star, has publicly apologized to her ex‑husband Scott Wolf and their three children after a year‑long psychiatric crisis that began with an involuntary hold in Utah.
Diagnosis and Public Apology
In an Instagram carousel, Wolf said she was diagnosed with “breakthrough drug‑induced mania with psychosis,” attributing the episode to stress, past trauma, hormonal shifts, hallucinogens and prescribed medication.
“It’s been a year since I recognized what everyone around me could see: I was not well, and I needed help,” she wrote, adding that her brain “had been hijacked” and the world felt like a freight train.
Divorce and Custody
Wolf and the “Party of Five” actor announced in June 2025 that they were ending their 21‑year marriage; days later, Utah County police detained her after concerning statements and she was taken to a hospital.
Scott Wolf, 58, said last year that Kelley planned false allegations during the divorce, citing text messages that suggested she was advised to fabricate claims to gain a legal advantage. He called the accusations baseless and dangerous for their three children.
A July 2025 agreement granted him temporary sole physical custody while she received supervised visitation.
Apology and Healing
Wolf directly addressed Scott and their children — Jackson, 17, Miller, 13, and Lucy Marie, 12 — writing that the pain she caused would “haunt” her.
“I am sorry. It was my job to protect you, honor you, and keep you safe, and I became the cause of your heartbreak,” she said, pledging to work hard to leave a better life and to never give up on love.
Scott responded by posting five heart emojis on her post, signaling his support.
