Kelley Wolf, the estranged wife of ‘Party of Five’ star Scott Wolf, has publicly confronted her recent police detention and hospitalization, accusing the actor of abuse and vowing to pursue legal action. The 48-year-old life coach and author, who recently announced her divorce from Scott after 21 years of marriage, took to Instagram to express her frustration with the situation, describing it as an ‘injustice.’
The incident occurred amid ongoing divorce proceedings and family tensions, with a 911 call revealing concerns about her safety. On June 13, an unknown caller reported a family fight at the Wolfs’ home in Park City, Utah, prompting police intervention. The caller, whose identity remains redacted, stated that they were going through a ‘very bitter divorce battle’ with Scott, who was filming a movie in Los Angeles. The caller also mentioned that Scott’s brother, who was meant to help with their children, was present in the home and that they did not feel safe with him there.
Just days after the 911 call, Kelley was detained by police in Utah County and taken to the hospital. The Utah County Sheriff’s Department confirmed the detention, which was captured in a video shared on Kelley’s Instagram page. In the clip, which featured a black screen with audio only until the final few seconds, Kelley was heard speaking to police officers who were detaining her. She also accused Scott of ‘abusing’ her, a claim that has not been substantiated by official sources.
Kelley’s posts come after she announced her divorce from Scott on June 10, stating that they were splitting after 21 years of marriage. She has been trying to file for divorce for months, but delays with legal counsel slowed the process. She also mentioned that the official petition came from the other party, but she emphasized that she had been grieving the marriage for years and that this was not avoidance but acceptance.
Meanwhile, Scott Wolf’s representatives have not yet commented on the matter. The incident has sparked discussions about the role of social media in publicizing personal conflicts and the legal processes involved in divorce proceedings. As the situation unfolds, it remains to be seen how the legal system will handle the allegations and how the public will perceive the couple’s actions.
