This Is Why Christina Ricci Filed For Divorce

Casper star Christina Ricci filed for divorce from her husband of seven years, James Heerdegen, following an altercation at their Los Angeles home. People reported that, on June 25, 2020, police responded to a domestic battery call at Ricci's home at around 9:20 a.m. No arrests were made in response to the incident, but the Addams Family actress was then granted an emergency protective order against Heerdegen, which prohibited him from having any contact with her.

According to TMZ, Ricci claimed that Heerdegen spit on her during the altercation. A week after that, on July 2, 2020, the former child star filed for divorce at the L.A. County Superior Court. Ricci also requested sole legal and physical custody of their son Freddie. People reported that, mere days before the split, Ricci posted a Father's Day tribute to Heerdegen in a now-deleted Instagram post. She captioned the image, "We [heart emoji] you, Daddy! @jamesheerdegen [heart emoji]."

Just days after filing for divorce, Us Weekly posted a photo of The Man Who Cried star heading into an L.A. urgent care center sans wedding ring. Neither Ricci nor Heerdegen have commented on their divorce or the alleged domestic violence incident to date.
