Ivy Getty, the oil heiress and fashion model, has made headlines once again, this time for filing for divorce from her husband, Tobias Engel, after a little over two years of marriage. The couple, who hosted a lavish wedding celebration at the San Francisco home of Ivy’s grandmother Ann Getty, have now found themselves at the center of a high-profile split.
Ivy Getty, the great-granddaughter of oil tycoon J. Paul Getty, is not only known for her family’s wealth but also for her work as a fashion model represented by Ford Models. She is a philanthropist and a fashion week staple in New York, London, and Paris. Her husband, Tobias Engel, is a photographer and the son of an Austrian businessman and an English actress.
The couple first met through a relative before reconnecting at Paris Fashion Week, where their romance blossomed. However, after three years of marriage, Ivy filed for divorce in January, citing irreconcilable differences. Mr. Engel is contesting the divorce, leading to a legal battle in the Supreme Court of New York County.
The couple’s wedding was a star-studded affair, with actress Anya Taylor-Joy serving as maid of honor and former speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi officiating the ceremony. The event featured performances by Earth, Wind & Fire and a guest list that included political figures and celebrities from around the world.
As the divorce proceedings continue, the reasons behind the split remain unknown. Ivy Getty and Tobias Engel’s marriage, once a symbol of glamour and luxury, now faces the harsh reality of a contested divorce. Stay tuned for more updates on this high-profile breakup.
