Social Media Power Couple Kristy and Desmond Scott Call It Quits After 11 Years
Houston, TX – The social media world is buzzing with news that influencer Kristy Scott, widely known as Kristy Sarah, has filed for divorce from her husband, Desmond Scott, after more than a decade together. The split comes as a shock to many fans who viewed their relationship as a beacon of stability in the often-turbulent landscape of online fame.
Court documents filed in Harris County, Texas, on December 30, 2025, confirm Kristy initiated the divorce proceedings. The couple, who tied the knot in 2014, share two sons, Vance and Westin. According to a report from TMZ on Friday, January 9, Kristy cited alleged infidelity as the reason for the separation.
The court filings reportedly state that there is no possibility of reconciliation, indicating that the couple “will soon stop living together as husband and wife.” Fans had already begun to notice a shift, with Kristy’s last social media post featuring Desmond appearing in December 2025.
The news has sent ripples through their massive online following. Kristy and Desmond, who have known each other since they were 14, built their brand on relatable, light-hearted content showcasing their family life.
Their videos, often featuring pranks, challenges, and everyday moments, garnered them a loyal audience across platforms. Kristy currently boasts 9.4 million Instagram followers and 16.8 million on TikTok, while Desmond has a significant presence with 1.7 million on Instagram and 1.4 million on TikTok.
Fans have been quick to react to the unexpected turn of events. “They were too picture perfect so I can believe this tragedy but still not accept it.
I like them together,” one fan commented. Another expressed shock, writing, “This is actually wild.
Their relationship looked perfect.” A third noted the timing, saying, “Wait I’m actually shocked and they literally just finished building a home a few months ago wtf.”
Kristy herself is renowned for her vibrant and humorous posts. In October 2025, she playfully showcased her attempts to walk in Gucci heels, performing flips and dance moves, captioned, “If you walk in them, you can buy them.”
Earlier that year, in May, she also posted a viral clip with Ciara attempting the popular chair challenge, quipping, “The real challenge was Desmond trying to keep up with @ciara at the end. SIR???”
Beyond their individual social media endeavors, Kristy and Desmond are co-owners of Meant To Be Films, a production company specializing in cinematic wedding storytelling.
In 2024, the couple celebrated their 10-year wedding anniversary with an elaborate “floral elegance” themed event. Reflecting on the celebration, they shared, “We were teenagers and hadn’t even developed any style preferences, so this was our chance to redo our wedding as the adults that we are now, celebrating the life we’ve built and journey thus far!” The event, true to their playful nature, even featured a caricature artist, which they explained was meant to “emphasize distinctive features in a playful way.”
At the time, they emphasized the strength of their bond, stating, “We have been best friends since teenagers and that’s never changed. We focus on genuinely having fun, constantly laughing, keeping things light and spontaneous and finding humor in everyday life. Ten years flew by, we’ve literally grown up together and navigated life together.”
The announcement of their divorce marks a poignant end to a relationship that many believed was destined to last.
