Actor Elliot Page has filed for divorce from wife Emma Portner, new court records show.
The 33-year-old Oscar nominated star — who recently came out as transgender — filed for a contested divorce Tuesday in Manhattan Supreme Court.
Portner, 26, a professional dancer and choreographer, publicly supported Page’s decision, saying she was “so proud” on social media.
“Trans, queer and non-binary people are a gift to this world,” Portner said in an Instagram post from December 1. “I also ask for patience & privacy but that you join me in the fervent support of trans life every single day. Elliot’s existence is a gift in and of itself. Shine on sweet E. Love you so much.”
The divorce comes just three years after the pair married in January 2018.
Reps and a lawyer for Page did not immediately return requests for comment. Portner could not immediately be reached.
