Separation Update: Inside Whitney and Justin Rose's Divorce Proceedings

Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Whitney Rose and estranged husband Justin Rose have been living apart after 16 years of marriage. According to a source, they have yet to start the formal divorce process as they figure out the next logistical and legal steps.

"They haven't taken any formal steps, like retaining attorneys or moving out yet, but they are currently separated," the source says. They're trying to navigate what comes next without the usual trappings of divorce, such as lawyers and physical separations.

Their relationship has faced ups and downs, which Whitney has openly discussed in interviews since the show premiered in 2020. Previously, she told Us that her marriage was fine. More recently, she addressed how her children handle seeing her and Justin's on-screen interactions.

Whitney mentioned talking to her daughter about their TV portrayal and receiving a reassuring response. Her daughter asked, "Are you jealous?" when someone at school commented on Whitney and Justin painting each other during a scene on the show.

The Roses were married in 2009 and have two children together, Bobbi (13) and Brooks (10). Despite the ongoing separation, neither Whitney nor Justin has publicly spoken about the nature of their current post-split relationship.
