Jaime King’s new husband Austin Sosa has filed for divorce – exposing the estranged couple’s secret wedding.
The 46-year-old actress – who recently denied wild rumors romantically linking her to rich hotelier Vikram Chatwal – was revealed to be engaged to Sosa last year in July 2025.
According to online records obtained by TMZ, King secretly tied the knot with the business investor sometime afterwards – although a date of when the wedding took place is not yet known.
Sosa officially filed the divorce paperwork on Thursday, but a date and reason for the separation have also not been disclosed.
It comes a little over two years since King’s divorce from her first husband Kyle Newman was finalized in 2023.
Following the split, the former couple entered a lengthy custody battle over their two children James, 12, and Leo, 10. But last year in March, Newman was granted sole physical custody of their sons.

Also last year in July, it was revealed that King had become engaged to the Family Office investor.
The White Chicks star confirmed the big news to People, with her rep telling the outlet at the time that she ‘is very close with his family.’
King had ‘stayed with his parents’ after moving out of her Los Angeles residence earlier last year.
Her landlord Sheila Irani previously sued the actress over unpaid rent at the residence in January 2025, with documents claiming she owed around $42,580 in back rent. And as a result of the legal conflict, she was forced to move out of the property.
The rep added that the star is ‘happy to share this moment with her children, who have a loving bond with Austin and his family.
‘As always, her sons remain her top priority, and she kindly asks for privacy as they move forward together with love and gratitude.’
The engagement revelation came shortly after she lost custody of her two children in March 2025.
A judge also ruled that visits with her sons needed to be supervised until she finished six months of a mandated drug/alcohol program.

The following month, King got candid about losing custody of her kids on the Whine Down With Jana Kramer podcast.
‘My duty as a mother is to protect my children. And that’s all that matters to me. This is scary,’ the star admitted to the podcast host.
The actress then reflected on tying the knot with Newman when she was 28.
‘I just didn’t know when I got married at a young age. I just didn’t know that the world works like this. I didn’t know that legal systems work like this.’
The Hart Of Dixie star also claimed that Newman falsely represented their relationship to the court in order to gain full custody of their sons.
‘It’s terrifying, when to be able to be free means that you have to pay a very extreme price, and I’m not just talking about financially.’
King further expressed, ‘It’s very upsetting, and I will do everything in my power to change this system, and it’s not a will. I’m going to. There’s no price to pay for freedom.’
A source told The Sun at the time that the actress is ‘shattered’ after losing custody and added, ‘Now that the world knows, it’s made everything that much harder. It causes a wedge in personal and work relationships.’

‘She is taking it very hard to say the least. She has had demons she’s been battling for decades but her recent troubles have been exasperated by her family troubles, her career struggling and financial stress.’
The insider continued, ‘And I’m sure things others don’t even know about, she can be very private about what she’s going through.’
Sosa’s filing for divorce only months after secretly tying the knot with King comes shortly after she was seen spending time with hotelier Vikram Chatwal earlier this month.
The pair had been spotted ‘looking affectionate with one another’ while stopping by the iconic Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood, per Page Six.
But a rep shut down the romance speculation between King and the Dream Hotel founder.
Nearly a decade earlier, Chatwal was reportedly sentenced to five days of community service after being convicted on charges of torturing and injuring animals, reckless endangerment as well as criminal mischief for ‘setting two dogs on fire.’
King further denied the wild rumors to Page Six as she claimed that both she and Chatwal were only talking ‘business.’

She also confirmed that she was still engaged to Sosa at the time.
Daily Mail had reached out to King’s reps for comment, but did not immediately hear back.
Chatwal used to have a friendship with stars such as Lindsay Lohan as well as Nicky Hilton Rothschild and Poppy Delevingne.
Two years earlier, his 81-year-old father pled guilty to witness tampering and conspiring to violate the Federal Election Campaign Act by making over $180,000 in federal campaign donations to three candidates through straw donors.
