NextImg:Drake Bell’s wife files for divorce one week after his disappearance

Drake Bell’s wife, Janet Von Schmeling, has filed for divorce after four years of marriage.

TMZ reported on Thursday that she filed for divorce earlier in the day and cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split.

Per the docs obtained by the outlet, Von Schmeling is seeking primary legal and physical custody of their 2-year-old son, Wyatt, while requesting for Bell to be granted visitation rights.

She is also seeking spousal support.

Sources had told Page Six in January that the couple had separated after the “Drake & Josh” alum was spotted huffing balloons in his car in the parking lot of a California vape shop while his young son sat in the back seat.

She requested primary physical and legal custody of their 2-year-old son.

After having “had enough,” Von Schmeling moved to Florida with their son.

“They had some incredible beautiful times before. He needs to focus on being healthy, and they’ll be great co-parents in the future,” a source told us at the time.

“It’s a bad moment in time for Drake. But he is a great dad when he is healthy and sober.”

Earlier this month, Bell was sought by police after he threatened suicide.

However, just one week ago, Bell triggered a manhunt after authorities reported him as missing and “endangered.”

He had last been seen the night before and had been photographed earlier in the day with his son at Sea World.

Just a few hours after asking the public for help to find him, authorities managed to make contact with the actor, 36, and even “took action” to ensure he received a “mental health evaluation.”

Drake Bell missing post

He was found a few hours after they originally labeled him as “missing” and “endangered.”

Police had reason to fear for his life because, according to a 911 call obtained by Page Six, he had texted his family in California saying he was going to “get drunk and hang himself.”

In an effort to find him, they tracked his phone to a hotel in Orlando.

Bell later spoke out on his disappearance and appeared to brush off any concerns, tweeting, “You leave your phone in the car and don’t answer for the night and this?”
