Scott Stapp and Jaclyn divorce

Entertainment weekly have reported a sad news about the divorce of Creed singer, Scott Stapp and his wife of almost two decades, Jaclyn Nesheiwat. She was winner of 2004 New York beauty pageant and crowned Miss New York USA.

TMZ first reported about this divorce on 10 May 2024. It seems that the legal papers were filed in May 2023 at the Tennessee court. People has managed to procure those court documents.

Jaclyn’s rep said in a statement:

“After much prayer and consideration, Jaclyn has chosen to end her 18-year marriage with Scott,”
“It’s been a long battle, and while this isn’t the future she envisioned, she wishes him the best. The welfare of their children will always be her utmost concern, and she kindly asks for privacy during this personal time.”

Scott’s rep did not respond to a request from ET on this matter. Earlier, one of his rep told People magazine reporter:

“Out of respect for their family, Scott intends to navigate this difficult time privately.”

The relationship timeline of the couple

Romance sparked between the two after they met at the Muscular Dystrophy Association gala in New York in 2005. They took their relationship higher and walked down the aisle together on 11 February 2006. Scott has three children out of this wedlock. They are Milan, 17, Daniel, 13, and Anthony, 6 (born November 2017).

Also, he has a older child, son Jagger, 25 with his first wife, Hillaree Burns whom he had divorced in 1998 after sixteen months of marriage. This was before meeting model Jaclyn. Scott had full custody of Jagger.

The marriage of Jaclyn with Scott was an unhappy one. This was due to his past addiction issues. He was on 5150 psych hold in the past after he had paranoid delusions due to the drugs. He became sober after that.

Jaclyn had filed for divorce in November 2014 and May 2022, but withdrew it subsequently both times.

Scott’s interview this year

Scott had given an interview to People this March in which he had praised his family. He has not talked about his divorce at that time but had made some indirect hint on it. He said:

“I have never had a family like this before Jaclyn and their children.”

Further, he added:

“They’ve really demonstrated to me what a family is all about, and having each other’s back and sticking together,”
“I’ve got to see what a real family is in action, and hopefully we’ll be able to carry that forward no matter how the story unfolds.”

Scott who hails from Orlando, Florida had talked about the physical abuse he faced as a child at the hands of his parents. His mother was Lynda who had divorced his biological father and was remarried to dentist, Steven Stapp. Scott took his surname.

His parents used to beat him in the name of God. He had to finish certain jobs on time to avoid their punishment. He said about God:

“I would feel a connection with God when I wrote the words and then when I would sing the songs, learning the songs, I would feel the Holy Spirit,”
