Justin Hartley Says New Marriage Is ‘Incredible’ After Dumping Chrishell Stause

This Is Us star Justin Hartley has opened up about how his marriage to Sofia Pernas has been in its first seven months.

“Even though we’ve only been married a few months, it’s hard to remember what it was like without her. When I re-met her, I just knew,” Hartley told Haute Living. Hew added that with Pernas “I’m just at peace with myself. I feel loved and I feel appreciated. I know she feels the same way.”

Hartley and Pernas first met when they were both working on the soap opera The Young And The Restless, but he was married to Selling Sunset‘s Chrishell Stause at the time.

Hartley and Stause would go on to have a highly-publicized divorce after two years of marriage in 2019 when Hartley apparently told Stause via text that he had filed for divorce.

Since the split, Stause has had a few relationships, including with Dancing With The Stars dancer Keo Motsepe, and her Selling Sunset co-star Jason Oppenheim, which ended this month.

This Is Us season 6 will premiere on Jan 4, 2022, on NBC at 9 pm E.T. Selling Sunset‘s first four seasons are available for streaming on Netflix, and a fifth season is confirmed but not released yet.
