Less than seven months after secretly marrying Ed Hartwell, Keshia Knight Pulliam's husband has filed for divorce.
Just last week, the Cosby Show child star announced to fans that she and the former professional linebacker are expecting their first child together, a baby girl. "Surprise!!! We have a new addition coming soon..." the actress revealed on Instagram.
However, just a few days later, Hartwell filed for divorce from his wife of less than seven months in Georgia's Fulton County Superior Court, her rep confirmed to People. The YBF broke the story. The former professional athlete also reportedly requested that Keshia take a paternity test.
The 36-year-old star first confirmed to fans she had gotten engaged on New Year's Eve. "Happy to spend not only my new year but my life with this guy!!!" she captioned a photo of the pair kissing with a glimpse of her sparkling ring.
Less than a month after revealing the milestone news, Pulliam once again took to social media to confirm she had already said "I Do."
"It was my dream," she gushed on her podcast, Kandidly Keshia. "We did it literally in our living room in our home. We come from large family. I'm one of four, Ed is one of six. We invited people. They had no clue they were coming to a wedding. They thought they were coming to a New Year's party."
While the star blamed poor timing for their lack of initial connection—Ed was previously married to Lisa Wu—Keshia described on the podcast how they inevitably fell in love.
"I was a little more reserved, a little more quiet but still myself [with this relationship]. I allowed him to show me who he was through his actions. There were so many times he would say things verbatim what I prayed for. He would speak and his priorities and the things he valued were completely in alignment with who I am…and that's when I knew it was real."
