The Full House actress turned fashion designer, Mary-Kate Olsen is ending her 5-year marriage to husband, Olivier Sarkozy.
She requested an emergency order amid the COVID-19 pandemic crisis. After 5 years of marriage, the couple appears to have problems with their relationship.
Kate Olsen, 33, is the one petitioning to divorce her husband, 50, which she filed in April. However, the filing did not push through because of the pandemic. Furthermore, Olsen also requested in her divorce petition that their prenuptial agreement is enforced.
Mary-Kate Olsen is getting kicked out
Despite the lack of information on Olsen’s grounds, she claims that Sarkozy is kicking her out from their apartment. The actress imposed that her husband terminated their lease contract without her knowledge. She alleges that Sarkozy is throwing out her belongings. As a result, she wants to prevent it by getting divorced.

The child star actress stated that her attorneys received an email from Sarkozy detailing the need of Olsen to remove her belongings. The actress was given until May 18 to comply, however, she requested to move the date to May 30, to which he did not respond.
What’s the reason for the divorce?
Now that the couple is calling it quits, fans are theorizing for the real reason of the split. One reason for the split is attributed to their age gap. Olsen is 17 years younger, which means that they could have different perspectives on life. According to one of Sarkozy’s sources,
“She’s clearly very excited about the chance to get married to a very successful, well-educated man, but life isn’t always that simple. He’s already got kids and is very happy with his status in life.”
Sarkozy already got grown-up kids. Moreover, their differences might also point to not having kids of their own. Sarkozy and his former wife, Charlotte Bernard bore two kids.

It’s also unclear if there is a third party involved to trigger the divorce. However, there is no official statement from both parties. Until now, neither Olsen nor Olivier released any comment.
Olsen and Sarkozy tied the knot in 2015
Although the couple dated since 2012, they did not tie the knot until 2015. The couple celebrated their wedding in a private ceremony in Manhattan. For years the couple stayed low-key in their marriage life, however, they are seen together in numerous gatherings.
In 2013, the couple was seen watching the Boston Celtics vs New York Knicks playoff game. The duo attended the Take Home a Nude annual auction and dinner in 2017. Recently, Sarkozy brought his teenage daughter to Mary-Kate Olsen’s 33rd birthday celebration.
