“My Unorthodox Life” star Julia Haart filed for divorce from husband Silvio Scaglia on Wednesday – just hours after her exit from Elite World Group, Page Six has exclusively learned.
“Julia had no idea when she woke up this morning that she was going to be leaving,” a source familiar with the split told us.
“The news of her departure went out on a trade website and then she filed for divorce in Manhattan Supreme Court around 12 p.m. This was absolutely not her plan for today. It’s f—ing crazy over at Elite.”
A second insider claimed Haart made her exit around “9:30 or 10 a.m.,” alleging she was “completely blindsided.”
“She wasn’t equipped to run the business. Look at her resume,” the source said. “People work for decades to become CEO and she had not had a big job until running La Perla.”
Scaglia – who purchased fashion and talent agency Elite World Group in 2011 – named Haart co-owner and CEO in 2019. Sources tell us she’s now not even contactable on the company email.
And according to an Elite World Group internal memo that was reportedly sent to staff, Paolo Barbieri will once again take on the CEO role. He has been with the group since 2013 and previously served as deputy chairman.
Page Six exclusively revealed in December 2021 that Haart, 50, and Scaglia, 63, were splitting. Sources told us at the time that the two were still working together, but living separate lives.
We’re told things began to fall apart after filming Haart’s hit Netflx series, “My Unorthodox Life.” The reality show documented her life after she left her ultra-Orthodox community in 2012.
Haart was later hit by claims over the authenticity of her story in August 2021. Despite the accusations, Netflix still signed the fashion guru and her family up for a second season of the reality TV series.
“Julia is at home right now and the Netflix cameras are there,” a source told us Wednesday,
Haart – who shares four children with her first husband, Yosef Hendler – wed Scaglia in June 2019.
The reality star posted a pic of the two of them beaming together via Instagram last week, writing, “And just like that.. we’re back! Day 1 of filming is complete.”
It’s unclear, however, when the photo was actually taken, as a source pointed out.
Reps for Haart, Scaglia and Netflix did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
