EntertainmentMaggie Grace Divorce Finalized in 2025

Page Six reports that Maggie Grace and Brent Bushnell’s divorce was finalized in 2025, after the actress filed to end the marriage earlier that year. According to court documents obtained by the outlet, Grace filed in Washington in May 2025 after seven years of marriage, citing an “irretrievably broken” relationship.

The filing listed Oct. 1, 2024, as the couple’s official date of separation. So, while the paperwork landed in 2025, the legal timeline says they had already been living apart for months. Quiet, yes. Invisible to the court system, not so much.

What the court documents say

Grace, 42, also asked in the petition to legally return to her maiden name, Margaret Grace Ives. Page Six reported that the request was granted in the finalized divorce, dated Aug. 13, 2025.

The court documents also said Grace and Bushnell signed a prenuptial agreement in May 2017. Grace asked the court to uphold the prenup as part of the divorce proceedings.

Representatives for Grace did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment on Tuesday evening. A representative for Bushnell was not available for comment, according to the outlet.

The former couple share two children

Grace and Bushnell previously welcomed their first child, a son, in 2020. He was 4 years old when the divorce filing was made.

The court documents also revealed that the former couple share a second child, a daughter named Fiona, who was 1 at the time of the filing.

According to Page Six, the documents state that both parents share decision-making responsibilities for major matters involving the children, including:

  • Schooling
  • Healthcare
  • Extracurricular activities

Grace was granted primary custody of both children. Bushnell was granted weekend custody of their son, and the arrangement is set to extend to weekend custody of their daughter once she reaches age 3 and a half.

The co-parents also agreed to divide holidays. The order gives Grace the option to spend some weekends with the children, while Bushnell may ask Grace to care for them during his parenting time if he is out of town for work.

How Grace and Bushnell’s relationship became public

Grace and Bushnell got engaged in February 2017. At the time, the “Suits LA” actress shared the news on Instagram with a photo of the two in a canoe.

“The strongest and sweetest songs yet remain to be sung (Whitman),” she wrote in the caption.

Around the same time, Grace also posted a photo of Bushnell at the Los Angeles Women’s March, writing, “WHAT A MAN #StrongMenSupportStrong.”

Before her marriage to Bushnell, Grace was engaged to filmmaker Matthew Cooke. In 2015, she showed off an engagement ring from Cooke at the Global Green USA pre-Oscar party.

Grace is widely known for roles in “Lost,” “Taken,” “Californication” and “Suits LA.” Bushnell is a technology and entertainment entrepreneur. Their divorce now moves from private paperwork into the public record, which is usually how celebrity privacy meets the filing cabinet.
