Dean Norris and his wife, Bridget Norris, are divorcing and are heavily in debt.
Bridget quietly filed for divorce from the “Breaking Bad” alum on Feb. 14, 2025, according to court documents obtained by Page Six.
Dean responded in May of that year, but it appears the divorce hasn’t been finalized yet.
The shared news comes as both men also face financial problems. The now exes filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy for their Temecula, California-based restaurant Swing Inn Cafe on September 25, according to documents obtained by Page Six.
The company has assets of $147,809.58 but liabilities of $1,811,598.46, according to the documents.
Chapter 11 bankruptcy allows a business to restructure its debts in order to remain in business.
The school’s former restaurant and barbecue joint, which they purchased in 2002, has been open since 1927.
The restaurant made no mention of its bankruptcy filing on social media. On Monday, his Instagram page posted Dean being interviewed by a local media outlet about the restaurant and encouraged his followers to pre-order their Thanksgiving meal from Swing Inn Cafe.
The page also shared a video of Dean meeting fans at the restaurant this weekend.
Dean, 63, is best known for playing Hank Schrader on AMC’s “Breaking Bad” from 2008 to 2013.
He married Bridget, a former entertainment lawyer, in October 2021. They share five children together, including two minor children: daughter Zoe, 17, and son Dean Jr., 16.
Bridget is seeking joint legal and physical custody of their children, as well as spousal support, TMZ reported Wednesday.
She cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their separation, listing their separation date as January 15, 2025, according to the outlet.
Page Six reached out to Dean’s rep for comment but did not immediately receive a response.
Meanwhile, the Swing Inn Cafe isn’t their only joint venture. In 2018, they opened the Norris Performing Arts Center in Murrieta, California. The center offers training in dance, singing, acting and musical theater to students aged 3 to 18.
