Diff’rent Strokes star Todd Bridges is divorcing his wife after three years of marriage, TMZ reports. He and mom-of-four Bettijo B. Hirschi had been separated for three months, according to TMZ, and on Tuesday he filed for a legal separation in Maricopa County, Arizona. The documents, obtained by People, ask for a petition for dissolution of marriage without minor children, and state that the marriage is “irretrievably broken.” Neither is requesting any form of spousal support. “After much prayer and reflection, my spouse and I have made the difficult decision to separate,” Bridges told People following the announcement of their separation in January. “This was not an easy choice, and it comes with a heavy heart, but also with love and gratitude for the life we shared.” He married the designer and photographer in 2022 in Beverly Hills, nine months after meeting on a dating app. From 1998 to 2012, the child star, 60, was married to Dori Bridges. The two have a 27-year-old son, and Todd Bridges has an adult daughter from a previous relationship.
