Joey Lawrence, wife Samantha Cope get-together after official split
Joey Lawrence and his wife Samantha Cope are back together.
Just five months after filing for divorce, Joey and Samantha appear to be back on track. The couple made their first public appearance since reconciling on Friday, stepping out at a lively Los Angeles market with their 19-month-old daughter, Dylan, according to TMZ.
The Blossom actor, 48, and Cope, 37, looked relaxed and happy during the outing. Lawrence kept his look simple with a white T-shirt and jeans, while Cope opted for a matching black tee and leggings. Both topped off their casual ensembles with baseball caps.
Their reunion comes on the heels of PDA-filled photos from an event promoting their upcoming holiday film, Marry Christmas.
In the movie, the real-life couple plays an engaged pair preparing to marry on Christmas Day. Lawrence shared a touching photo of them kissing with the caption, “My forever after.”
Expressing love, Lawrence wrote, “I am beyond grateful, I am beyond blessed, I am galaxies beyond thankful. My heart is so full.”
Cope responded with a sweet comment, “love you,” to which Lawrence replied, “love you so much baby.”
The couple’s reconciliation follows a complex few months.
Cope initially filed for divorce on August 21 but later amended her request to seek joint legal custody of their daughter. However, she still wished to retain sole physical custody, agreeing Lawrence can have Dylan for two nights per week starting in January 2026, when she turns three.
And also, Cope has blocked the court’s ability to award spousal support.
Lawrence and Cope married in 2022 after meeting on the set of the Lifetime movie My Husband’s Secret Brother.
