Jack Antonoff and Margaret Qualley File for Divorce
Confirmed
In Short: Jack Antonoff and Margaret Qualley have filed for divorce after three years of marriage, according to multiple reports.
The couple jointly filed for an uncontested divorce settlement on Friday, Oct. 30, 2026, in New Jersey.
Antonoff, 42, and Qualley, 32, were first spotted together in 2021, and they married in August 2023 in a star-studded ceremony in New Jersey.
The news of their separation first surfaced in July, following rumors sparked by Antonoff attending Taylor Swift’s wedding to Travis Kelce without Qualley.
In a statement to People, a source close to the couple said, 'The narratives running in the press about Margaret and Jack are categorically untrue. There are no trust issues. There was no infidelity or anything outside of respect and partnership in this relationship.'
Antonoff told The Guardian earlier this month that he had initially felt 'worried' about performing songs he wrote about Qualley on tour, but found it 'beautiful' to do so.
Their relationship was the inspiration for Lana Del Rey's song 'Margaret,' which Antonoff co-wrote and co-produced for her 2023 album 'Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd.'
Qualley, known for her roles in 'The Substance' and 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood,' was listed as the plaintiff in the divorce filing, though the filing is described as a joint, uncontested divorce.
A source close to the couple told Entertainment Weekly that their marriage had been 'rocky,' citing their busy schedules and distance as factors in their decision to divorce.
