Earlier this month, The Sun exclusively revealed that Kym and Scott’s 18-month marriage has come to an end[/caption]
Kym was joined on the red carpet by her musician daughter Emilie Mae Cunliffe.
It comes hours after Kym removed “wife to Scott” from her Instagram bio and wiped him from her social media accounts.
The star and Scott tied the knot in October 2021 after meeting three years earlier.
Earlier this month The Sun exclusively revealed that Kym and Scott’s 18-month marriage has come to an end.
The couple decided to call it quits after finding their careers kept them apart.
A source said: “Kym’s been so busy, and last year Strictly meant even her weekends were stacked up along with weekdays rehearsing.
“More recently she’s been filming all over the place and rehearsing for a new theatre run.
“And Scott is based in barracks down south – he’s got a very busy career as well.”
Signs of Kym and Scott’s split had emerged online in recent months.
Kym last posted a photo with her husband on Valentine’s Day, sharing a simple selfie with Scott, which she captioned: “Happy Valentine’s day to the Hubs!!!! Love youuuuu.”
But since then, she posted a snap of just her kids and commented: “Family is everything.”
She also was also recently snapped several times on the red carpet with her lookalike daughter Emilie for company, instead of Scott.
She was married to EastEnders actor Jack Ryder from 2002 to 2009, and Hollyoaks star Jamie Lomas 2012 to 2014.

Kevin Costner’s wife files for divorce as Yellowstone actor admits ‘circumstances beyond his control’ led to split
YELLOWSTONE star Kevin Costner’s wife, Christine Baumgartner, has chosen to end her relationship with Kevin after 18 years.
Kevin took responsibility for the choices that drove him and Christine to divorce after almost two decades of marriage.

Christine recently filed for divorce from Kevin[/caption]
Christine, 49, filed on Monday, TMZ reported.
The clothing designer didn’t divulge specifically why she wanted to quit the relationship.
Instead, she just declared the reason being as merely “irreconcilable differences.”
A representative from Kevin’s team told TMZ that the divorce is of great sadness to the 68-year-old.
“It is with great sadness that circumstances beyond his control have transpired which have resulted in Mr. Costner having to participate in a dissolution of marriage action,” the representative explained.
“We ask that his, Christine’s and their children’s privacy be respected as they navigate this difficult time.”
The estranged couple shares three children together: sons Cayden, 15, and Hayes, 14, and daughter Grace, 12.
At this time, Christine is only asking for joint custody of their kids, and not for spousal support.
In a response that Kevin’s lawyer Laura Wasser, 54, filed on his behalf on Tuesday, it was acknowledged that spousal support was “to be payable to petitioner” per their “Premarital Agreement.”
Also, in the response, it was explained that Kevin wanted joint custody of their kids as well.
Christine was Kevin’s second wife.
WHO IS CHRISTINE?
Kevin married Christine Baumgartner in 2004.
She was most famously known for her work with E! Live from the Red Carpet, Primetime, and Die Johannes B. Kerner Show.
Christine is also a former model and current handbag designer who got a degree in Business from California State University.
While the estranged couple have three children together, Kevin himself is the father of seven.
His previous children come from his past relationships with Cindy Silva and Bridget Rooney.
Kevin’s other children include Annie, Lily, Joe, and Liam.
It was revealed in 2012 that he and Christine almost did not get married because he wasn’t interested in having any more children.
“She said, ‘I’m going to wait for you, but not long. When you come to your senses, come back to me,’” Kevin told Parade back in 2012.
“And I did.”
Kevin and Christine chose to raise their children out of the spotlight on their 165-acre Dunbar Ranch; just outside Aspen, Colorado.
THE SHOW GOES ON
While Kevin may no longer have a wife, he still does have a thriving career.
For the past six years and the past five seasons, he has led the Yellowstone cast.
Kevin first signed on to the Western TV drama in May 2017.
Not only does he play one of the main characters, but he is also an executive producer for the show.
The Oscar winner takes on the part of Montana rancher-turned-governor John Dutton III.
His role as the Dutton family’s patriarch netted him his third Golden Globe win.
At the 2023 ceremony, Kevin took home the award for Best Actor – Television Series Drama.
Regarding the program’s development and what drew him to Yellowstone, he told Deadline: “I like to think my tastes are broad but a lot of people think I do anything with a horse in it.
“Western themes are very hard to pull off. There’s a tendency to think white hat, black hat and it’s much more complicated.

Vanessa Bauer puts ‘split’ with Joey Essex behind her on wild night out telling pals ‘I just want to have fun’
VANESSA Bauer looked sensational at a star-studded boxing premiere as she put her ‘split’ with Joey Essex behind her telling pals: ‘I just want to have fun.’
Joey is reportedly moving to Dubai after his romance with Dancing On Ice star Vanessa, 26, fizzled out.

All eyes were on Vanessa as she stepped out in a plunging ballgown which showed off her stunning figure.
The ITV star let her hair down at the Big George Foreman: The Miraculous Story of the Once and Future Heavyweight Champion of the World gala where she mixed with a room full of boxers on her girls’ night out.
Vanessa was joined by a glam list of stars at London’s plush The Ham Yard Hotel including Chris Eubank Jr, Harlem Eubank, the legendary Michael Watson MBE and Barry McGuigan MBE, as well as Love Island stars Jack Fowler, Toby Aromolaran, AJ Bunker, and Elle Spence.
Vanessa, who made it to the DOI finals with her ex ‘beau’ Joey who is now set to move to Dubai, said: “I’m just having a good time. I’m out with my girls to have fun.”
She certainly did, as she kicked up her heels for a night out with reality TV stars including TOWIE’S Saffron Lempriere, Kris Boyson and Abbie Quinnen.
Just last week Vanessa set tongues wagging after she stepped out to the Peter Pan and Wendy premiere with a mystery man.
Vanessa looked stunning in her fairytale mauve ballgown for the glam event at the Curzon Mayfair.
Her companion looked smart in a tweed three-piece suit, as the pair relaxed and enjoyed the star-studded evening together.
Her night out came as Joey is reportedly moving to Dubai.
The Towie star will embark on a new chapter abroad just weeks after landing second place on the ITV show with stunning Vanessa.
A source told MailOnline: “Joey absolutely loved his time performing with Vanessa on Dancing On Ice – he will treasure those memories forever.
“But for now, he’s focussing on work opportunities and beginning a new chapter in Dubai.
“He’s definitely single and while Vanessa means a lot to him because of the experience they shared on the show, they’re just friends now.”
Big George Forman is out only in cinemas now.

Grimes Tells Fans To Deepfake Her Music, Will Split 50% Royalties With AI
She also said she welcomes the open sourcing of art and an end to copyright. “Im just curious what even happens and interested in being a Guinea pig.” From a report: Grimes has long embraced AI as a techno artist. In 2020, her first album to top the Billboard dance charts was Miss Anthropocene, named for the effects of technology on Earth’s ecology and climate in the post-Industrial Revolution era. It was also in 2020 that she teamed up with the algorithmic mood music startup Endel to create an AI-generated lullaby for her first child with SpaceX founder Elon Musk who they named X AE A-12 with the Elven spelling of AI, according to Grimes.
“Everyday I thank the overlords of Ableton for cleaning up my tracks, but I do worry though that AI will outpace us and make musicians obsolete. It’s inevitable,” she warned at Web Summit 2020. With millions of followers across YouTube, Instagram and Twitter and hits like Oblivion, Kill V. Maim and Go, her call for AI collaboration could be a game changer.

Grimes invites AI artists to use her voice, promising 50 percent royalty split
Canadian synth-pop artist Grimes says AI artists can use her voice without worrying about copyright or legal enforcement. “I’ll split 50% royalties on any successful AI generated song that uses my voice. Same deal as I would with any artist i collab with,” she tweeted on Sunday. “Feel free to use my voice without penalty. I have no label and no legal bindings.”
The musician’s declaration comes in the wake of streaming platforms removing an AI-generated song using simulated voices of Drake and The Weeknd. Universal Music Group (UMG), which represents both artists, called for the purge after “Heart on My Sleeve” garnered over 15 million listens on TikTok and 600,000 on Spotify. UMG argued that publishing a song trained on its artists’ voices was “a breach of our agreements and a violation of copyright law.”
Grimes takes a considerably more open approach, adding that she has no label or legal bindings. “I think it’s cool to be fused [with] a machine and I like the idea of open sourcing all art and killing copyright,” she added.

This isn’t Grimes’ first time weighing in on AI. The artist collaborated with mood music startup Endel to launch an AI-generated lullaby app in 2020. She was inspired to create “a better baby sleeping situation” for her son, X Æ A-XII. In addition, she predicted in 2019 that generative AI could mean “the end of art, human art,” continuing by saying, “Once there’s actually AGI (Artificial General Intelligence), they’re gonna be so much better at making art than us… once AI can totally master science and art, which could happen in the next 10 years, probably more like 20 or 30 years.”
In addition to music, generative AI is already disrupting numerous industries, including visual art, writing, online media and voiceover work. After its sudden arrival — and rapid improvements — within the past year, AI content creation has set off numerous legal, ethical and copyright firestorms. Unfortunately, it will likely worsen before society and copyright laws settle on any consensus. In March, the US Copyright Office said AI art, including music, stemming from a text prompt couldn’t be copyrighted. But it left the issue far from settled as it left the door open to granting copyright protections to works with AI-generated elements.
Grimes’ offer to split royalties says it would apply to any “successful” AI song using her voice, leaving some confusion over where that cutoff is. Either way, she sounds ready to back up the offer with tools artists can use, promising, “We’re making a program that should simulate my voice well but we could also upload stems and samples for ppl to train their own.”
