Overview

• Bell submitted court documents in Seminole County, Florida, on August 14 to advance the dissolution of his 2018 marriage to Janet Von Schmeling.
• Von Schmeling initially filed for divorce in Los Angeles County in April 2023, citing a September 2022 separation and seeking primary legal and physical custody of their son.
• Details of the Seminole County filing—including custody arrangements, support and final settlement—have not yet been made public.
• Bell’s manager, Juan José Rovirosa, said the filing simply concludes the existing legal process and that both parents remain focused on their child’s safety and wellbeing.
• Reporting notes Von Schmeling’s subsequent relationship with partner Jim Perez and their announced pregnancy as part of the family’s evolving context.
