Influencers JT Barnett and Sami Clarke have filed for divorce six months after sharing their decision to separate, Us Weekly can exclusively reveal.
According to court documents obtained by Us, the content creators jointly filed to end their marriage on March 9. The docs note that Barnett, 33, and Clarke, 31, agree their date of separation is June 1, 2025, and both are waiving claims for spousal or other support from each other.
Barnett and Clarke have also decided to return their wedding and engagement rings to each other, per the docs. Barnett will continue to care for their dog, with Clarke waiving all rights to visitation.
The exes agree that Core, For Creators and Core Access, previously described as “a training center for emerging creators, influencers, and talent,” will be “the sole and separate property” of Barnett. (Barnett shared the news of his business venture on January 15, revealing that he started it in 2025 but never “fully announced it publicly” until recently.)
The same goes for Form For You, Inc., which was a digital platform for “all things fitness, wellness, and self-love” founded by Clarke.
Clarke announced in October 2025 that she and Barnett had called it quits after less than one year of marriage.
“My life is shifting and I’m moving into a new chapter apart from JT,” Clarke wrote via her Instagram Stories. “It’s truly hard to put into words how tough this feels, but I trust it’s the right step for me.”
She continued, “I’ll forever be grateful for the love and memories we shared for these past eight years together. Thank you for giving us space and grace as we move through this new chapter.”
Barnett, for his part, addressed the split in a separate statement.
A slew of breakups rocked the celebrity world throughout 2026, beginning with Bill Hader and Ali Wong in January. That same month, The Real Housewives of New York City alum Kelly Bensimon announced that she’d recently split from her boyfriend. Later in January, TikToker Kristy Scott filed for divorce from her husband, Desmond Scott, while […]
“Hate that I have to post a personal PSA today: Sam and I have not been together for a bit, she chose to step away. I love her,” Barnett wrote via his Instagram Story at the time. “There’s been no relational issues & no drifting apart… just her own feeling & intuition that she needed to leave.”
He continued, “I don’t agree with this & I didn’t want this. I know who I am, what I want, what I provided and what we were. Our life has been fulfilling, happy & happy.”
Despite feeling like he didn’t “want to share this” or “talk about it,” Barnett shared that because the pair have “lived a public life,” he has no choice.
“This is a tragedy, I miss the person I love and this whole thing has been really fkn sad,” he concluded.
In a separate Instagram Story, Barnett explained that he planned to share “more about my work because it’s what I have been using this account for. Plus it’s been a great outlet and is something I genuinely enjoy. Appreciate all ur guys love & support.”
Days later, Us confirmed that the pair’s home was listed on Monday, October 6, for $1.39 million. The four-bedroom, three-bathroom home is located in Austin, Texas, and sat on a lot of nearly three acres.
Clarke and Barnett tied the knot in 2024 after meeting when he approached her on Instagram.
“He slid into my DMs after commenting on a photo of me getting baptized, and what started as a friendly exchange quickly turned into something more meaningful,” Clarke wrote on Shona Joy’s website after her wedding to Barnett. “At the time, he was playing hockey in Russia, and I was pursuing modeling. We kept in touch as friends for a year before finally meeting in person when he came to LA.”
