Mitchell Arvidson has officially stepped away from a marriage he says can no longer be saved. On March 10, 2025, he filed a petition for dissolution of marriage in Cook County, Illinois, seeking to formally end his union with Samantha Arvidson. Represented by attorney George J. Skuros of The Law Office of George J. Skuros, Arvidson claims that irreconcilable differences have led to the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage, making reconciliation impossible.
The couple, who wed on September 25, 2021, in Sauk City, Wisconsin, share no children. Their three-year marriage, now reduced to legal filings and asset negotiations, involves the division of marital property, including a vehicle, bank accounts, and household furnishings. According to the petition, marital debts have already been equitably distributed, and both parties are financially self-sufficient, eliminating the need for spousal support.
Arvidson has requested that each party retain their own retirement benefits and remain responsible for their respective debts and legal fees. Additionally, he has stated that Samantha Arvidson should have the right to resume her maiden name if she chooses. The case now rests in the hands of the Cook County Circuit Court, where the final dissolution will be decided in the weeks to come.
What remains of their marriage is now a matter of legal proceedings—a deliberate, calculated process that will bring closure to a relationship that, according to the petitioner, has run its course.
