Steve Guttenberg: Police Academy star files for divorce from wife Emily Smith after six years of marriage, who is she

According to court documents obtained by TMZ, the Police Academy star filed the paperwork on Friday, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split. A specific date of separation was not listed and was marked as “TBD.”

The couple married in January 2019 and have no children together, so no custody or child support matters are involved in the proceedings.

Guttenberg stated in the filing that a prenuptial agreement is in place and indicated he will pay spousal support in accordance with its terms.

The divorce filing comes just months after Guttenberg made headlines during the Palisades wildfire, which affected his Pacific Palisades neighbourhood. During the emergency, he was seen helping clear the streets by moving abandoned vehicles to create access for emergency services.
