This divorce complaint marks the third legal separation of Jack White, after his separation from Karen Elson in 2013 and Meg White in 2000. The singers married in 2022 in concert in Detroit. Asking his father’s permission, he said on stage, “Ladies and gentlemen, it’s been such a beautiful day, I’m thinking, why not we just do this right now and get married right away?” He popped the question at the end of the show, before the song ended, and got down on one knee. Fans were shocked as the proposal turned into their official wedding ceremony, with Ben Swank officiating. In July 2022, Jean commented on the whole surprise, saying that five years of planning the ceremony would fail in the face of it.
