RHOSLC Star Whitney Rose Files for Divorce

“Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” star Whitney Rose says ending her nearly 17-year marriage to Justin was a gradual, difficult decision, but time apart helped her gain clarity and see divorce as a potentially positive change for her family. The couple began living separately and nesting in May, and Rose filed for divorce in Utah on October 6, 2026. She said she feared being seen as selfish and worried about telling their children, Bobbie and Brooks, but they supported the decision and want both parents to be happy. Rose says she and Justin are co-parenting amicably, while the separation and its emotional toll feature in the show’s current season. She also credited friends, family, and focusing on her health with helping her navigate the split.
