AceShowbiz - Actor Lukas Gage, 29, and celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton, 40, have finalized their divorce, according to court documents obtained by PEOPLE on Friday, June 7. The couple, who sparked romance rumors in February 2023 during a trip to Mexico, married just two months later in April. Their Las Vegas wedding ceremony was officiated by none other than Chris's close friend, Kim Kardashian.

However, their marital bliss was short-lived. After almost seven months of marriage, Appleton filed for divorce from Gage in November 2023, citing "irreconcilable differences." The official separation date was documented as November 10, just three days prior to the filing. Both parties had a postnuptial agreement in place, and they asked the court to sign a written agreement waiving spousal support.

During an interview with PEOPLE in March 2024, Gage reflected on the past year, describing it as a period of "learning, growing, changing." He added, "Life's always changing. Everything's great." On the other hand, sources indicated that Appleton is eager to move forward. "Chris is happy to leave 2023 in 2023," a source told PEOPLE. "He has a lot of new and interesting projects, and he is excited for the future."

The couple's romance initially captured public attention with their coordinated black and white looks at the Vanity Fair Campaign Hollywood and TikTok Celebrate Vanities event in March 2023, shortly after which Appleton confirmed their relationship during an appearance on "The Drew Barrymore Show". "I'm very happy," he shared. "Very much in love, and I feel very grateful to be able to share my time with someone very special."

Despite a promising start, with joyous posts on social media and frequent public appearances together, Appleton and Gage's relationship faced challenges that ultimately led to their separation. "It's been a year of continuous change," Gage shared, suggesting that their split was part of the evolving journey in their individual lives.

Young Hollywood had its eyes on Appleton and Gage, making their split a notable event in celebrity news. Chris Appleton's work with stars like Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lopez, and Lukas Gage's rising career kept them both in the spotlight, ensuring that their personal lives resonated with many fans. As they move forward, both Appleton and Gage seem focused on their futures and individual growth.

The Superior Court of California in Los Angeles County has officially documented the divorce, marking the end of a brief but highly publicized union. Both Chris Appleton and Lukas Gage now look ahead to new chapters in their lives, fueled by the experiences and lessons from their time together.
