September 22, 2025. Jackson County, Missouri. Jacelyn Feeney files to end her marriage. She signs her name, her attorneys—Shea Stevens and Michaela Marine of Shea Stevens Law, LLC—stamp it official. The target is her husband, Matthew Enstrom. Ten years married. St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, April 14, 2015. The vows are gone. The record says it plain: the marriage is irretrievably broken.
The split wasn’t sudden. May 17, 2025—they separated. No kids, no pregnancy, no military ties. Two adults over eighteen. Each working, two lives with property to divide, debts to assign, and a past they can’t erase.
Jacelyn’s play is sharp. She says she’s dependent on Matthew for part of her support. She wants the court to order maintenance. She wants her separate property back, his too, then the rest divided fair and square. She accepts they’ll both cover their own attorney’s fees. But she wants the court to force him to carry her financially, at least in part.
The filing strips the marriage down to black and white lines. Irretrievably broken. Property to divide. Spousal support to secure. Ten years condensed into paragraphs, sworn and notarized. On September 22, the petition hit the docket in Jackson County. It’s a legal move, a personal reckoning, and the start of a fight only the court can referee.
