Todd Bridges, the 'Diff'rent Strokes' star, has announced his split from wife Bettijo after just over three years of marriage. The couple, who met on a dating app, are parting ways amicably. Todd is asking for privacy as they move forward separately.
Oh, the tea is piping hot from the 'Diff'rent Strokes' set—or at least from Todd Bridges' personal life! TMZ has the exclusive: Todd and his wife Bettijo are calling it quits, heading straight for divorce after a whirlwind romance that lasted just over three years.
Todd spilled the details himself in a classy statement: "After much thought and mutual respect, we have decided to end our marriage. During our time together we shared meaningful moments, but have chosen to go our separate ways. I ask for privacy and wish her nothing but love and happiness moving forward." No messy drama here—just grown folks deciding it's time to bounce. 💔
Let's rewind the timeline, shall we? The pair swiped right on a dating app nine months before their big day, hit it off like fireworks, and got engaged a speedy six months later. They tied the knot in a low-key Beverly Hills ceremony back in late 2022, keeping it intimate with about 40 guests. Talk about serving romance real quick!
Family blending was part of the mix too—Todd stepped up as dad to Bettijo's four kids, while he has two of his own: 29-year-old daughter Bo and 28-year-old son Spencir. This marks Todd's second go at marriage; he was hitched to Dori Bridges from 1998 until their 2012 split.
No word on what sparked the end, but with that mutual respect vibe, it seems less explosive than your average Hollywood breakup. Is this the end of an era for the child star turned family man, or just a plot twist? Stay tuned—celebrity love stories never really fade to black.
