Bobbi Althoff's husband, Cory Althoff, has filed for divorce after four years of marriage.
According to court documents obtained by NBC News, the couple, who have two children together, have been separated since July 4, 2023.
At 26 years old, Althoff is recognized as a podcaster acclaimed for her reserved demeanor during interviews with celebrities such as Drake. Her rise to prominence began in 2021 when she started sharing pregnancy updates on TikTok.
Her estranged husband, an author and programmer, cited irreconcilable differences as the grounds for seeking the dissolution of their marriage. The paperwork was electronically filed with the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, on Feb. 7.
According to the documents, Cory Althoff, 34, is requesting joint legal and physical custody of their two children, Luca, 3, and Isla, 1.
Representatives for Bobbi Althoff did not respond immediately to YEPPOST.com's request for comment. However, the podcaster shared a post on TikTok on Feb. 7 announcing their separation.
"As most of you have heard, Cory and I have filed for divorce. As sad as I am right now, I am so thankful for the time I got to be his wife," she captioned a black-and-white photo of their engagement. "Our girls are so lucky to have him as a father & I am so lucky to be able to co-parent with such an incredible father and person."
"While our relationship did not work out as husband and wife, we will always be friends and I will always love him," she concluded.
Cory Althoff's legal team also did not respond immediately to YEPPOST.com.

Who is Bobbi Althoff?
If you're on TikTok, it's a question that's likely on your mind. Visit her YouTube bio, and you'll find Bobbi Althoff described as a "master interviewer with weeks of experience interviewing celebrities." On YEPPOST.com with Hoda & Jenna in August 2034, the then 25-year-old had more to share about herself.
"I got the idea in April to start a podcast," she told Jenna Bush Hager and guest co-host Justin Sylvester. "I've always embodied this character with dry humor. And I thought, why not bring her along for a podcast?"
Bobbi Althoff launched "The Really Good Podcast" in 2023.
Her deadpan sense of humor garnered her a devoted fanbase on TikTok, including several celebrities. She initiated "The Really Good Podcast" and has conducted interviews with comedian and actor Rick Glassman, YouTuber Funny Marco, rapper Armani White, and notably, singer and rapper Drake.
Clips from her hilariously awkward interview with Drake have gone viral on TikTok, with one video amassing over 22 million views. As for how the interview came about, it's quite an amusing tale.
"He saw my video with Funny Marco. And he liked it. And he followed me," Althoff mentioned on YEPPOST. "When I saw he followed me, I thought, I’m going to ask."
"So you just DM’ed him and said, ‘Do you want to be on my podcast?’" Jenna inquired.
"Yeah, that's exactly what I said," Althoff confirmed.
Bobbi Althoff is a mom of two — and posts on TikTok about parenthood
Before going viral by hanging out in bed with Drake, Bobbi Althoff's content reflected a different aspect of her life.
Her previous TikTok account, which she has since set to private, still boasts 1.2 million followers. She transitioned to posting comedy videos on her current account, which currently has 5.3 million followers.
Bobbi Althoff's initial posts on that account show her sharing and joking about pregnancy and motherhood. Although the theme of her content has evolved, her deadpan humor is evident from the beginning. In one of her initial videos, Bobbi Althoff quipped that despite being 40 years old (her real age at the time), she still had the skin of a 23-year-old due to her reluctance to smile.
In addition to more common TikTok content like dancing and lip-sync videos, Bobbi Althoff has documented her second pregnancy and life with her two daughters. To safeguard their privacy, she has given her young daughters the nicknames "Richard" and "Concrete" and avoids showing their faces on camera.
She also gained viral attention for discussing a side effect of breastfeeding: lopsided breasts.
While she continues to create original TikTok content, Althoff appears to have redirected her focus to her podcast.
How Bobbi Althoff interviewed Drake
The setting was unconventional for a celebrity interview: Bobbi Althoff and Drake lounged under the covers of a bed while the rapper casually sipped on a drink.
Their dynamic fell somewhere between an awkward first date, childhood friends catching up, and two "SNL" cast members trying to make each other break character.
"Can you not drink during my interview, please?" she queried.
"It's a nightcap," Drake retorted.
"It's sad," she quipped back.
Needless to say, Bobbi Althoff has an unconventional interviewing style. Throughout the nearly hour-long conversation with Drake, she maintains an expressionless demeanor, occasionally glancing to the side as if to convey boredom.
The interview took place backstage at the FedEx Forum in Memphis, as she revealed to Jenna and Justin on YEPPOST. "The idea behind it was that I wanted to do (the interview) so badly that I bothered him while he was going to bed to do it. ... So now we conduct all my podcasts in random locations."
Several amusing interactions from her interview with Drake have garnered attention, particularly Bobbi Althoff's playful jabs about his legal first name, Aubrey.
