Acting heartthrob Jeremy Allen White was “blindsided” to hear that his estranged wife Addison Timlin posted about being a single mother, according to Page Six.
White, 32, who is best known for his role in The Bear has secretly been dealing with the breakdown of his marriage to Californication actress Addison Timlin.
The couple, who have known each other since they were teenagers, tied the knot back in May of 2019. Just four years later in May 2023, Timlin filed for divorce, according to a TMZ report at the time.

Now, a source close to the couple has revealed to Page Six that White was allegedly “blindsided” to see Timlin, 31, refer to herself as a single mum in a Mother’s Day post from May 14, just days after she filed for divorce.
Allegedly the actress initially wrote, “Being a single mum is not how I pictured it. It is so f—ing hard,” but later, the caption was changed to say, “Co-parent is not how I pictured it. It is so f—ing hard.”

Regarding Timlin changing her Instagram caption from ‘single mum’ to ‘co-parent’, the source said: “Addison changed her Instagram post because it wasn’t accurate, a lot of people were like ‘what are you talking about?’.
The source also said that the actor’s intense filming schedule may have put a strain on the marriage.

“Jeremy had no control about where he was filming. He filmed The Bear in Chicago and any time he could, he came home. He is so involved in those girls’ lives, he adores his daughters.”
Just weeks before filing for divorce, Timlin praised her husband online for winning a Golden Globe back in January.
“When we were 14 years old and I saw you perform for the first time in drama class, I couldn’t take my eyes off of you,” Timlin wrote.
“Daddy winned another trophy, we’re so proud,” and White responded with: “Love you.”
