Scott, 57, was also granted a temporary restraining order against his estranged wife, with whom he shares sons Jackson, 16, and Miller, 12, and daughter Lucy, 11.
Kelley, according to court documents obtained by People, reportedly 'engaged in an escalating pattern of behavior that poses a substantial threat of immediate and irreparable harm to the parties' minor children.'
The temporary restraining order suspended Kelley's custody or parent time with her children until a private guardian ad litem can meet with the children and provide feedback to the court, per People.

Scott filed the order after Kelley was detained by police in Utah on June 13 and later hospitalized.
Kelley, who was on MTV's 'The Real World: New Orleans,' posted footage of her run-in with cops to her Instagram Live. One of the officers told Kelley she wasn't going to jail, adding they were there to get her 'some help.'

An audio clip from the 911 call connected to the purported incident heard an unidentified female telling the dispatcher that she was 'terrified' and 'needed help' after clashing with her brother-in-law and 16-year-old son.
Kelley later addressed her hospitalization, claiming it was 'horrible' but adding she's 'happier than I have ever been.'

'Apparently, I'm also one of the strongest women a certain mental hospital has ever met,' she wrote in an Instagram post on June 19, regarding her hospitalization. 'I was offered medication. I refused every single one. I laid in bed for five days – sober, clear, and calm.'
Scott and Kelley announced last month they were splitting after 21 years of marriage.

'It is with a heavy heart that Scott and I are moving forward with the dissolution of our marriage,' Kelley wrote on Instagram.
'This has been a long, quiet journey for me—rooted in hope, patience, and care for our children,' she added. '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.'

‘Keep pumping': The new dance inspiring Novak Djokovic's quest for a record-equaling Wimbledon title
If ever there was a time for Novak Djokovic to shake off his troubles and share a dance with his son and daughter, it was after being tested to his limit against Alex de Minaur in the fourth round of Wimbledon on Monday. The Serb battled through a four-set fight against the Australian 11th seed on Centre Court, eventually finding a way to secure a 1-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 win after more than three hours of play. But despite looking both physically and mentally exhausted after match point, Djokovic still had the energy to perform a new celebratory dance with his children who were watching on from the stands. Son Stefan was seen joining him in the movement after outlasting de Minaur. The dance – reportedly inspired by a 2004 song by Danzel – has found new popularity during this year's Wimbledon, with the 24-time grand slam champion performing it with his children after winning his matches. The moves involve Djokovic pumping his fists down, then to the left, then the right, and finally up to the sky. His daughter Tara stole the show after her dad's third-round win on Saturday, pushing herself to the front of the stands to perform the 'pump it up' dance moves while Djokovic was being interviewed. 'It's called 'pumpa' in our language and 'pump it up' in English. There's a song with my kids,' Djokovic explained on Saturday. 'And look, my daughter is doing it right now,' Djokovic continued, as the camera turned to Tara. 'You want to show it, darling? You want to show how it goes?' Tara gave a shrug with a smile and proceeded to demonstrate, drawing delight from the crowd. 'She's the master,' Djokovic said. 'It's a little tradition we have right now so hopefully we can keep going so we can keep pumping more in Wimbledon.' Danzel, the artist behind the song, posted a video of Djokovic explaining the dance on Instagram, saying it was an 'honor' to have inspired the new celebration. There were plenty of times during Monday's match when it looked as though Djokovic would be unable to perform his new dance craze. Djokovic looked way off his best in the opening exchanges and struggled initially to get to grips with the gusty conditions on court. The first set was particularly puzzling, with de Minaur breaking Djokovic's serve three times to take a one-set lead in the match. The start of the second was equally erratic, with both players breaking each other's serve in quick succession – the set also involved an energy-depleting game that lasted 24 minutes alone. The 38-year-old Djokovic started to grow frustrated by the close of the second set after the net seemed to help de Minaur on several occasions, but all that angst and tension flew out of Djokovic in an almighty roar to his team after he wrapped up the second set. It then looked as though the seven-time Wimbledon champion had found his form, winning the third set and taking a huge step toward the next round. But de Minaur came racing back at the start of the fourth to break Djokovic's serve early on. With many expecting the match to go into a deciding set, Djokovic upped his level and broke back twice to fight his way into the quarterfinals. '(De Minaur) is so good,' Djokovic said during his post-match interview on court. 'He's one of the quickest, if not the quickest player we have on the tour and on the grass, where the ball bounces very low. It's extremely difficult to play someone like him if you're not feeling the ball. 'I was just very pleased to hang tough in the right moments and win this one.' Djokovic also had the added pressure of playing in front of tennis legend Roger Federer, who was the special guest in the Royal Box. The 43-year-old smiled as Djokovic gave him a special shoutout during his interview – the Serb is bidding to equal Federer's men's record of eight Wimbledon titles in this year's tournament. 'I think this is probably the first time he's watched me and I've won the match,' Djokovic joked. 'The last couple I've lost but it's great to have Roger here. A huge champion and someone I admire and respect a lot.' Djokovic will now look to recover from Monday's grueling encounter before facing either world No. 1 Jannik Sinner or tour veteran Grigor Dimitrov in the next round.

'Call Her Daddy' host Alex Cooper booed for off-key singing at Cubs game: Watch
Alex Cooper didn't win Chicago Cubs fans over with her rendition of "Take Me Out To The Ballgame." Cooper was a guest at a Cubs game Sunday, July 6, and was invited to put her spin on the baseball anthem. "Alright Daddy Gang and Cubs fans, are you ready?" she said, adding with a laugh, "You've never seen something like this before." The Pennsylvania native and two friends performed the song in Cubs jerseys, with the "Call Her Daddy" podcast host playfully singing the song dramatically and off key, stifling laughter with the friends serving as backup dancers. The crowd quickly began booing, as heard in social media video, which only increased during Cooper's big finish. The podcaster and businesswoman appeared unaffected however, laughing through the performance and ending with a big smile on her face. Cooper otherwise had a good time in Chicago. In photos posted on her Instagram story, Cooper was seen signing Cubs T-shirts and jerseys. She also posted photos seemingly from a promotional party for her network and hydration drink brand, Unwell, from the night prior. Sports fans haven't been too pleased with the choice of performers as of late. In June, basketball fans showed disdain for Kristin Chenoweth's performance of "The Star-Spangled Banner" during Game 7 of the 2025 NBA Finals between the Indiana Pacers and the Oklahoma City Thunder, the "Wicked" star sang in her distinctive musical theater tone, which seemed to throw viewers off.
