Olsen, 33, is ending things with her husband Olivier Sarkozy, 50. A source spoke to “People” magazine, revealing how the pair just couldn’t compromise when it came to her career.

The fashion icon currently runs two luxury fashion brands with twin sister Ashley Olsen. The brands are called The Row and Elizabeth and James.

HUSBAND WANTED TO CONTROL HER

The Row was founded by the twins as they wanted the perfect white T-shirt. The brand isn’t made for just anyone with very few items available for less than $1,000.

The insider explained the divorce filing stating: "She's super career-focused and he's very French and wanted her to be more available." The source added: "You can't control a girl who has been on the billionaire track since her 20s."

THE OLSEN’S BUSINESSES

In 2018, the two child stars, which were thrust into the limelight at 9-months, opened up to “WWD” about their successful business ventures. The pair revealed how their detail-oriented approach kept their partnership strong.

The Olsen sisters explained how they wanted all their items to be “perfect” before hitting stands. Ashley also shared that they were “not product pushers.”

MARY-KATE’S DIVORCE

On April 17, 2020, Olsen reportedly signed a petition to divorce the French banker. However, due to the novel coronavirus pandemic, New York courts haven't been accepting divorce filings unless it’s an emergency.

BEING KICKED OUT OF APARTMENT

The actress’s attorneys allegedly received an email from Sarkozy's lawyers notifying her that she needed to move out of the couple's New York apartment by May 18, 2020. Olsen has apparently asked her husband to extend the deadline to May 30, 2020.
