Lukas Gage and Chris Appleton are to divorce after just six months of marriage.
The White Lotus star, 28, and Kim Kardashian’s hairstylist, 40, exchanged vows in a surprise Las Vegas wedding in April – but TMZ reports Appleton filed for divorce on Monday citing ‘irreconcilable differences.’
The couple’s date of separation is listed as Friday and they have a prenup in place.

DailyMail.com has contacted representatives for the pair for comment.
The pair’s wedding was documented on Hulu series, The Kardashians last week, with Kim, 43, officiating their wedding.

Shania sang: ‘Chris, Lukas, looks like you made it, get over here, let’s do this.’
Both Chris and Lukas said: ‘We love you!’ as Shania broke into her 1997 classic You’re Still The One.
Lukas and Chris wed in front of only six guests at Little White Chapel after applying for a marriage license in Clark County.
It was the same wedding venue where Kourtney Kardashian & Travis Barker, Joe Jonas & Sophie Turner, Bruce Willis & Demi Moore, and Frank Sinatra & Mia Farrow previously walked down the aisle.
Two of the other guests were Appleton’s two children – 19-year-old son Billy and 17-year-old daughter Kitty-blu – whom he welcomed with Leicester salon owner Katie Katon before he came out as homosexual at age 26.
Kitty-blu Instastoried several snaps from Las Vegas, including a selfie with Kimwhile watching Usher perform at Park MGM’s 5,200-seat venue Dolby Live.
The newlyweds could not keep their lips off each other as they sang along.
Gage and Appleton made their romance public in February when they shared vacation snaps from The St. Regis Punta Mita Resort in Mexico.
‘I’m very happy. Very much in love. And I feel very grateful to be able to share my time with someone very special,’ Appleton gushed on The Drew Barrymore Show on March 17.
‘Love is a really special thing and I think meeting someone that you really connect with is really really special.’

‘He’s a good-looking man. Something about being in London, I got a taste of the Brits and couldn’t help myself.’
