Kristy Scott is ready to let go of her ex-husband’s last name, Desmond Scott, that helped propel her to digital superstardom.
The thirty-year-old TikTok sensation, known to millions for her viral pranks and high-fashion lifestyle, has officially filed to drop her estranged husband Desmond Scott’s surname legally. This move comes just a week after the couple shocked their massive following by announcing the end of their eleven-year marriage.
In a divorce petition obtained exclusively by Us Weekly, the content creator, who has already pivoted to “Kristy Sarah” on her social media platforms, asked the court to restore her maiden name, Small.
The legal filing marks a definitive end to a love story that many fans viewed as the ultimate relationship goal. Kristy and Desmond met in middle school and built a life together that was chronicled in real-time for an audience of over ten million followers. They wed in 2014 and share two young sons, Vance and Westin. While the public announcement of their split felt sudden to many, the legal documents suggest a pair who are moving forward with a clear, business-like focus on their future. They have reportedly agreed to a written arrangement regarding their children, vowing only to involve the court if they can’t reach a consensus on their own.
Beyond the name change, the divorce petition reveals a meticulously planned separation of assets. The couple recently finished building a custom home together just months before the split, a project that was a major storyline for their fans. According to the filings, they have entered into a “marital property agreement” to outline who owns what. Kristy is specifically asking the courts to ensure her separate properties are excluded from the community estate, protecting the business empire she helped build during their decade-long run.
For the fans who followed the Scotts from the beginning, it is the end of an era, but for Kristy Small, it is the start of a brand-new chapter.
