Scott Wolf and wife Kelley are getting divorced after 3 children and 2 decades of marriage
Actor Scott Wolf and his wife Kelley are getting a divorce. The 'Party of Five' veteran, who currently stars as Dr. Richard Miller on the Fox medical drama 'Doc,' confirmed the split Wednesday, telling The Times in a statement, 'After 21 years of marriage, I have made the most difficult decision of my life, and filed for divorce from my wife Kelley.' Kelley Wolf posted the news of the split on Tuesday on social media. 'This has been a long, quiet journey for me — rooted in hope, patience, and care for our children,' she wrote. 'While I will not speak publicly about the details, I feel peace knowing that I've done everything I can to walk this path with integrity and compassion.' She called Scott Wolf 'one of the best fathers I've ever known and one of the best partners a woman could have the privilege of sharing life with. He is kind, thoughtful, funny, and beautiful in spirit.' Both of them noted that they were focused on their kids, with Scott, 57, saying they were 'the loves of our lives' and Kelley, 48, calling them 'the most extraordinary children.' They share sons Jackson, 16, and Miller, 12, and daughter Lucy, 11. The actor met the veteran of MTV's 'The Real World: New Orleans' through mutual friends in 2002 on a blind date that almost didn't happen. 'We were meeting at a restaurant and she wound up turning up almost a full hour late,' the actor said in 2021 on 'Access Hollywood.' 'I was asking other people at the bar. I was like, 'How long do you wait for a blind date?' And they were like, 'Kind of an hour tops.' So she made it under the wire.' Turns out she was stuck in 'horrible' New York traffic, he said. They married in 2004 in her hometown of Fayetteville, Ark., and honeymooned in Africa.

Meet Our New Restaurant Critics
This morning, The Times announced that Tejal Rao and Ligaya Mishan are our new chief restaurant critics. It's the first time the job is being shared by two people and the first time we're not trying to hide their faces. Also, they will be filing full-length, starred reviews from around the country, not just New York City. You can read more about how it will all work here. Tejal lives in Los Angeles, and joined The Times in 2016 after working as a restaurant critic at The Village Voice and Bloomberg News. Ligaya, who wrote our Hungry City restaurant column from 2012 to 2020 and has been an Eat columnist at the Times Magazine and a writer at large for T Magazine, is in Manhattan. I asked them about their early restaurant memories, how they read menus, what they eat at home and what scares them about the gig. First of all, congratulations! This is both a dream job and very daunting. How's it feel? What are you most looking forward to — and what are you most worried about? Tejal: It's exactly that: dreamy and daunting. I have a running list of all the things I'm worried about, and my therapist is on vacation this week — I'll save it for her! Ligaya: What I've always loved most in writing about restaurants is how much I learn. It's an entry point not only to a particular cuisine, but to a part of New York — and, now, of America — I might not otherwise have a chance to know. As for worries: I want to do justice to every place I visit, and I hope I will. It doesn't matter that I've been a writer for years — the blank page is always slightly terrifying. I'll try to keep in mind what the head of my daughter's school once told me: 'I don't worry. I do the work.' Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

The Times Has Appointed Two Chief Restaurant Critics. Here's How That Will Work.
On Wednesday, The Times announced that Tejal Rao and Ligaya Mishan are the new chief restaurant critics, filling — and expanding — the role Pete Wells left in 2024. This appointment is one of a few changes we're making as our food criticism becomes more national, and as we bring it to life in new ways. Who Are the Critics? Both Rao and Mishan are longtime reporters and critics for The Times, though this is the first time either has been chief critic. Most recently, Rao has been a California-based critic at large, writing broadly about food culture. Mishan was an Eat columnist for the Times Magazine and a writer at large at T magazine. She also wrote the Hungry City restaurant column from 2012 to 2020. Why Does The Times Need Two Critics? For decades, the restaurant critic for The Times focused almost exclusively on New York City, writing weekly reviews and notebooks and awarding star ratings to individual restaurants. But with subscribers in every state, and great restaurants in each of them, we'll now use two critics to deliver starred reviews of restaurants all over the country. The idea is to expand upon the work we started with the Restaurant List, our annual national roundup of the 50 places our staff is most excited about, and our lists of the best restaurants in cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Philadelphia and Austin, Texas. Who Does What? Rao will be dedicated entirely to the national dining scene. Mishan will split her time between reviewing the best and most newsworthy restaurants in New York City and covering the rest of the country with Rao. The goal is to capture particular moments in American dining — the restaurants that are most interesting, exciting and emblematic of our times. With All That Travel, Will There Be Fewer New York Reviews? New York is one of the world's great restaurant cities. It's where The Times built its authority on the subject of where best to eat. We have no plans to back away from that, and in fact will offer even more New York restaurant coverage. In the coming months, we'll start publishing brief, starred reviews from other Times critics. The Where to Eat newsletter will continue to send restaurant recommendations to subscribers' inboxes every week. And, of course, we'll keep producing The Times's annual list of the 100 Best Restaurants in New York City. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
