Last Friday, Page Six had two separate stories about the state of Emily Ratajkowski’s marriage to Sebastian Bear-McClard. A gossip podcaster said that it was an open secret that Emily and Sebastian were done and that they had already separated, roughly 15 months after welcoming their son Sylvester. Then someone close to Emily – an unnamed source – told Page Six that yeah, Emily and Sebastian were done and he cheated on her a lot and the whole thing was “gross.” Now a more official statement, I guess, to People Mag:
Emily Ratajkowski and Sebastian Bear-McClard have gone their separate ways after four years of marriage. A source close to Ratajkowski confirmed to PEOPLE that the couple has split.
“They split recently. It was Em’s decision. She is doing okay. She is strong and focused on her son. She loves being a mom,” the insider tells PEOPLE, adding that the model plans to file for divorce.
Reps for the couple have not returned PEOPLE’s request for comment.
Speculation about a possible separation began this week after the model was seen running errands without her wedding ring. She’s also not wearing it in her recent Instagram photos.
I’m a broken record on this, but Ring Watch isn’t the best way to determine whether people are splitting up. Sometimes people forget their rings or lose their rings. My point is that the “gossip” about Emily and Sebastian was about a lot more than Emily being seen without her ring. Clearly, there have been stories going around New York about Sebastian’s infidelities. It also sounds like Emily only recently found out, which says that either A) he’s been cheating for a while and he was good at covering his tracks until he wasn’t or B) he hasn’t been discreet at all and one of Emily’s friends finally f–king told her. I feel sorry for her. At least she got a beautiful, healthy baby out of the marriage.

If this woman can be cheated on what hope is there for the rest of us?
My thoughts exactly.
Rule #1 — don’t rush into marriage with someone you barely know. I went into 2 relationships when I was much younger after a short period of time and was subsequently cheated on (ironically I was very pretty when I was younger). Fortunately I didn’t marry either of them, but with DBs like Sebastian, it’s a power thing to cheat no matter how gorgeous their partner is. It makes them feel omnipotent. Well if you have to shag other women on the down-low to make yourself feel powerful, you have a serious ego problem and most likely suffer from NPD. At least his name is now out there as a serial adulterer and most women in their right minds will avoid him like the plague.
@Julia K I just going to say something similar. Or basically just another confirmation that for some men, it really doesn’t matter how hot/sexy/amazing/intelligent a woman is. If he is a cheating douchebag, that is what he is! It is probably the only way they know how to feel good about themselves – that ego stroke. I never knew much about Emily’s husband, but damn, he looks the part! I wish her the best, but I am sure she will be just fine!!
Douchebags are gonna cheat no matter who they’re with.
There are good people out there who don’t cheat because it’s not just about sex/looks, it’s about trust and honesty and being able to care about another person.
Exactly…it bugs me when someone says something along the lines of “but she’s so pretty – how can *she* get cheated on?!” as though its justified when the woman is ugly “but she’s so ugly – of course *she* will get cheated on!”
People who cheat will cheat regardless of what their “conquest” looks like.
When I see her I see that Kendal Jenner has been having all of those surgeries in an attempt to look like Emily. And that Emily looks like one of the puppets from Dark Crystal. I do feel for her because this is such a betrayal. He always gave off grimy vibes and let us not forget his liberal use of the N-word. Not a good guy at all. That little boy of hers sure is cute.
Amen to everything you said. Every. Damn. Thing.
“And that Emily looks like one of the puppets from Dark Crystal.”
woah.

I don’t know how I stumbled on some photos of him and Suki Waterhouse looking cozy right after he married Emily. He is gross.
This is a guy who exploited a loophole to live almost rent free for decades. While having millions while an actual artist is shut out of a home they could acutally use and work in with limited income.
So if he is low enough to do that why would he be faithful to his wife?
She married someone she hardly knew. They were legally dating and had a kid. Hope she chooses better next time.
She dated someone (sorry forgot hs name) seriously for a number of years, they broke up and two months later she’s at the courthouse in a yellow outfit marrying this guy. Not smart. Having the baby probably extended the marriage’s life but it was doomed from the beginning.
