Kelly Bensimon called off her wedding to financier Scott Litner four days before the pair were supposed to say “I do.”
According to The Real Housewives of New York alum, she called it off because he refused to sign a prenup.
“Ultimately, my decision is nobody’s business, but I understand that there is speculation and gossip, and I want to put an end to all of it,” the model told PEOPLE. “To be clear, he refused to sign a prenuptial agreement, and I refused to marry him. Full stop.”
The pair, who met at a New York Rangers game, got engaged in July 2023 after dating for over a year.
In her official statement, Kelly said “she was looking forward to an exciting new chapter in her life together with Scott when everything became clear to her late on Tuesday afternoon.
Kelly added that “He thought that I would enter this union without legal protections in place, that I would leave everything to faith. But I’ve worked really, really, hard as a single mother and have always made smart decisions for myself and my family, and that will continue.”
