Vincent Kartheiser Files for Divorce from Alexis Bledel After 8 Years of Marriage.

The Mad Men alum filed for divorce from the former Gilmore Girls star on Wednesday, PEOPLE has confirmed via Bledel’s rep and the New York’s Putnam County Court, where Kartheiser filed the petition on Aug. 10.

Kartheiser’s reps did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment, and Bledel had no further comment at this time.

Bledel, 40, and Kartheiser, 43, met on the Mad Men set in 2012. Kartheiser played Pete Campbell, and Bledel appeared in season 5 as Campbell’s mistress Beth Dawes.

Shortly after Bledel appeared on the show in 2012, the couple were spotted kissing. They privately tied the knot in 2014.

Alexis Bledel will not return for “The Handmaid’s Tale” Season 5, Variety has learned exclusively.

Bledel, who has played the key character of Emily/Ofglen on the Hulu drama since its first season debuted in 2017, said in a statement Friday: “After much thought, I felt I had to step away from ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ at this time. I am forever grateful to Bruce Miller for writing such truthful and resonant scenes for Emily, and to Hulu, MGM, the cast and crew for their support.”

During her four-year run on “The Handmaid’s Tale”, Bledel received four Emmy nominations and one win for her performance in the Bruce Miller-created TV adaptation of Margaret Atwood’s iconic novel.

Alexis has never missed a nomination for the series, after her win in 2017, she competed in supporting in 2018 before dropping back to guest in 2019 and 2020. This year she has another killer submission, “Testimony”, in which Emily has to confront someone from her Gilead past. Bledel is in first place in the odds and would become the seventh woman to win the drama guest actress twice, the category record.

During an appearance on the Watch What Happens Live after show on May 22, host Andy Cohen asked everyone’s ultimate burning question to Alexis Bledel during a game of Rory Spill More (cleverly named after her character of Rory in the show.) And just who did the 39-year-old actress—who appeared on the late night show alongside her The Handmaid’s Tale co-stars Samara Wiley, Elisabeth Moss, Yvonne Strahovski, and Madeline Brewer—choose as the ultimate match for her character?

“Jeagan,” the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants star answered, making up a nickname for all three characters on the spot. “I can’t single somebody out.”
