Fashion designer Rachel Zoe has officially filed for divorce from her husband, Rodger Berman, after announcing their separation last year. The divorce petition, submitted on Monday in Los Angeles Superior Court, cites irreconcilable differences and mentions a separation date of June 27, 2024.
The couple’s 27-year marriage has been a significant part of Zoe’s life, and she is requesting joint legal and physical custody of their two sons, Skyler, 14, and Kasius, 10, ensuring that both parents maintain visitation rights. Interestingly, Zoe has also waived any spousal support, asking the court to terminate Berman’s ability to seek such support. Berman is notably the co-CEO of Rachel Zoe, Inc., highlighting the professional ties that remain between them.
This development comes as Zoe has recently joined the cast of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” leading to speculation about whether their divorce will be featured on the show, which is currently filming its 15th season.
The couple first announced their separation in September 2024, sharing their decision through a joint statement that emphasized their pride in their family and commitment to co-parenting. In their message, they expressed gratitude for their time together and asked for privacy as they navigate this new chapter in their lives.
Rachel Zoe and Rodger Berman originally met in 1991 while attending George Washington University and married in February 1998. Their long-term partnership has been characterized by both personal and professional collaboration, making this split a notable change for both individuals.
As they move forward, fans and followers will be watching closely to see how this significant life change unfolds both in public and in their personal endeavors.
