Days after announcing her split from Scott Wolf, the “Party of Five” actor’s estranged wife Kelley was admitted to a Utah hospital.
“Deputies responded to the Sundance Resort for a report of a female that needed some help,” local law enforcement told People in a June 13 statement.
“Upon speaking with the female, our Deputies learned that she had made concerning comments to a family member, and she also made similar comments to our Deputies. For that reason, our Deputies transported the female to a local hospital.”
A spokesperson for the Utah County Sheriffs Office confirmed to the outlet that Kelley, 48, was handcuffed “just for their protection and our protection as law enforcement as well.”
Kelley shared an audio/video clip of a tense exchange with Utah police on Friday via a previously broadcast Instagram Live.
“Oh my God, this is not happening,” Kelley’s voice can be heard against a black screen, adding that she’ll “go on my own.”
Kelley is then heard being handcuffed.
“This is shameful, gentlemen,” Kelley exclaimed. “Look at this woman, this is shameful. Be ashamed, be ashamed of yourselves, gentlemen.”
An officer then explained to her that she would not be going to jail and that they were trying to get her “help.”
“I know what I’m doing, I’ve done this,” she said. “This is my job.”
“You’ve made some comments to your dad, and some comments to people that are concerning,” an officer’s voice responded. He added that they “want to make sure you’re okay.”
“I didn’t mean to. I think Scott Wolf is abusing me, and now you are abusing me more,” Kelley said during the encounter, though it’s unclear what she meant by “abusing.”
A handcuffed Kelley and the officers were briefly visible in the last part of the video, during which she asked them to turn off her phone camera and stop the recording.
Via Instagram Stories, she subsequently shared a photo of what appeared to be her purse and a ball cap in a hospital room. “This is horrible,” she wrote over the photo. “I have been taken against my will. Please check on my kids.”
Kelley continued, “Also… I am happy!! Happier than I have ever been. I have NO idea why or how this is happening in AMERICA. I am compliant, calm and respectful, and hopefully this is all sorted very quickly. In the meantime, be kind to each other. This is one of the darkest things I’ve ever experienced.”
Page Six reached out to a rep for Scott, but did not receive an immediate response.
On Tuesday, Kelley, who married Scott in 2004 and subsequently welcomed three children with him, took to Instagram to announce their split after two decades of marriage. “It is with a heavy heart that Scott and I are moving forward with the dissolution of our marriage,” she wrote alongside an image of a lion with three eagles flying overhead.
“This has been a long, quiet journey for me—rooted in hope, patience, and care for our children,” she continued.
“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 then addressed Scott, calling him “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. We both look forward to an extraordinary life centered around the most extraordinary children.”
Scott, who filed for divorce in Utah on Monday, also released 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,” he told People in a statement on Wednesday.
“Our children have always been, and continue to be, the loves of our lives and our every priority, so I kindly ask for privacy at this time as we help guide them through this new chapter.”
The estranged couple share children Jackson, 16, Miller, 12, and Lucy, 11.
