Brandon Routh soon to be back on the market!

Courtney Ford is cutting the cord on her marriage ... filing for divorce from her actor husband famous for playing Clark Kent.

The "Dexter" star beelined it to court Wednesday and filed to divorce "Superman Returns" star Brandon Routh after over 17 years of marriage.

In the docs, obtained by TMZ, Courtney is going with the boilerplate "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the split ... and she does not give a date of separation.

Courtney and Brandon have one minor child together, 12-year-old son Leo ... and she's seeking joint legal and physical custody.

Courtney's seeking spousal support and she checked the box to terminate the court's ability to award Brandon spousal support.

The estranged Hollywood couple got hitched way back in 2007 at El Capitan Ranch in Santa Barbara ... they dated for three years before he popped the question in 2006, so they were together for well over 2 decades.

What a shortsighted woman to leave such a handsome, talented and, I'm sure, caring man.

They’ve been airing the episodes she was on on the show Supernatural.

She actually had a pretty good story arc. She gave birth to Lucifer’s son. 😱

Yeah, she played Kelly Kline.

Something that bugs me about her, is that she always sounds like she's out of breath.

Does she have heart problems or something?

Superman Returns star Brandon Routh hashed out a divorce settlement with his ex-wife, Courtney Ford, only weeks after she filed, In Touch can exclusively report.

According to court documents obtained by In Touch, Brandon, 45, and Courtney, 46, informed the court of their agreement this week. Courtney, who is an actress who has appeared on Dexter, filed for divorce on January 8 after 17 years of marriage.

In her petition, she listed “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split. She did not provide a date of separation in her filing.

The exes share a 12-year-old son, Leo. Courtney asked the court to award her joint legal and physical custody. She asked the court to award her spousal support and for Brandon to be cut off from any support.

In his response, Brandon agreed with Courtney on every request. He admitted the marriage was over due to “irreconcilable differences.”

The actor said spousal support should be paid to Courtney and his right to collect support should be terminated.

Brandon filed his paperwork without the help of a lawyer. In the newly filed document, Courtney said she had reached a Marital Settlement Agreement with Brandon. Per the deal, all outstanding issues have been resolved between the parties.

Per the deal, child support will be paid for Leo and will enough for all his needs. The deal said Brandon waived his right to spousal support.

The terms on how much child support and spousal support will be paid are being kept confidential.

Further, Brandon and Courtney’s deal covered who will pay their divorce legal fees and the division of any community property.

Both parties executed the deal on January 9, only one day after Courtney filed for divorce, but did not submit the agreement in court until this week. Brandon and Courtney wed in 2007 in a ceremony in Santa Barbara, California.

La Routh has beautiful hair. I believe he has Native American ancestry.

Irreconcilable differences?

And not "fraud?"

by Anonymousreply 12January 24, 2025 2:08 PM

The Rouths were very codependent, they did a lot of projects together

Courtney is the better actor.

DL will never quit with this guy. Is it the Bryan Singer thing?

by Anonymousreply 14January 24, 2025 2:47 PM

They must be broke if Brandon is filing his own court paperwork, and they're keeping the amount of child and spousal support a secret.

That could be why they're divorcing. Money problems.

Has Brandon worked recently? Has Courtney?

Very perceptive r15

He does not work much

But I would point to something else

What are those purple marks he has on his knuckles at R17?

by Anonymousreply 18January 25, 2025 4:11 AM

Actually this is a better before video, this was posted 6 months ago and probably made a few months before that

So, say a less than a year before the video at R17

He went to hell in a year. Definitely alcohol.

Granted, he could have become alcoholic because the marriage was falling apart.

Two weeks ago

Very big weight loss and stopped working out, his pecs deflated and became manboobs

You can also see that the jeans he’s wearing are loose, which aligns with sudden weight loss

He’s probably become a driftwood,“Found Object”, or gnome whittling artist and she has cut him off.

In this photo from late 2023, he still has a great pecs

So within the space of a year he completed stopped working out and they collapsed like a soufflé

He's on the Con circuit and always has a healthy line of fans dropping $60-80 for signatures (even more for selfies).

Saw him 6 months ago (July '24) and he looked damned good to me. Tight tee, tight jeans and his bod was pretty incredible. Very nice guy too and his handler is incredibly professional and accommodating to fans in line. Never really was a fan before but he totally won me over.

You know all those other Supermen in R25's pic are praying they look as good as Gerard Christopher (another super! nice guy) when they reach his age.

He did not look good at TIFF last year when this was taken. He’s 45 and looks a decade older.

Brandon: I’m just a piece of meat to you!

Courtney: Yeah. Now put the tights on slowly and turn. Yeah, turn again.

Damn, Tom really is the best of the bunch by a long shot!

In that photo at R25, he’s the tallest and best looking, still.

Tom was absolutely gorgeous when he did Smallville. If he cleaned up his scruff he’d look even better.

I’m glad he’s embraced the fandom and thus the work he did on that show. He continues to make money off of it. As it should be.

He learned from his friends how to continue to monetize it.
