In 2007, four years before he starred on 'Property Brothers', Jonathan married his longtime girlfriend Kelsy Ully, who worked as a WestJet crew scheduler, according to Amomama. When Jonathan and Kelsy first met, they were young and in love, but as time went on, things got difficult and they ended up breaking up badly. The reality TV star tried to keep their relationship away from the spotlight until Ully’s identity was revealed in their official divorce documents.
Who is Kelsy Ully?
Born in Canada, Kelsy lives in Calgary, Alberta, according to her Facebook page. In 2009, she graduated from her honors program at the University of Nevada Las Vegas, where she studied Business Administration and Management. She also completed three years of similar coursework at Mount Royal University. Kelsy’s strong resume was capped off by her 2017 Applied Project Management Certificate from the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology.
On her elegantly designed LinkedIn page, she portrays herself as pleasant and professional with the capacity to develop strong relationships with individuals. As per her profile, she has over fifteen years of professional experience. She worked as a flight scheduler for an airline for three years before she worked as a Project Manager for Scott Real Estate.
How Jonathan Scott met Kelsy Ully?
When Jonathan and Kelsy first met they were in their hot early 20s. Kelsy was working as a flight scheduler for a Canadian airline while Jonathan was picking up real estate basics with his twin brother, Drew. Soon they fell in love and started dating each other. In 2007, Jonathan made a big move and located from Canada to Las Vegas to be with Kelsy. They got married the same year.
Young and in love, Jonathan and Kelsy exchanged vows on July 7, 2007. However, marriage life wasn't easy for them as soon their relationship got struck by financial problems. To make ends meet, Kelsy took a job as a waitress at a pool club in Las Vegas, and her occupation had her working long hours and late nights. Because of her position, Jonathan hardly ever saw his wife, and this gap grew over time.
In his 2017 memoir, 'It Takes Two: Our Story', Jonathan noted Kelsy had a group of friends she spent much time with that he barely knew. The couple soon saw their marriage falling apart. They even tried to make things work by going to counseling but nothing seemed to work for them. Eventually, they got separated in 2009 but their divorce dragged on until 2013. Talking about their split, Jonathan once said, "The split isn't something I dwell on anymore, but for one too-long, too-dark period in my life, that's practically all I did. It shook me right to my core."
