As The World Turns stars Cady McClain and Jon Lindstrom have reached a settlement in their divorce as they continue to work together on new soap opera Beyond The Gates.
The former couple, who wed on Valentine's Day 2014 and separated in December 2023, submitted their signed agreement to the court for a judge's approval to finalize the divorce, according to TMZ.
According to the court documents, McClain, 56, and Lindstrom, 68, both agreed to waive spousal support, which has become a trend among celebrity couples.
The actress will keep all assets in her name, furniture and personal property, while Lindstrom will retain his own separate assets and property.
McClain and Lindstrom, who played love interests Rosanna Cabot and Craig Montgomery on As The World Turns until its final episode in 2010, did not have any children.
The exes both joined the new CBS soap opera Beyond The Gates last year with Lindstrom playing tough but charming casino owner Joey Armstrong and McClain cast in the role of Pamela Curtis. They will continue to work together. Season two premiered on January 2.

The pair revealed they were ending their 10-year marriage in a post shared on their respective Instagram accounts in April 2024.
They explained the reasoning behind their split and reassured fans that they were committed to staying amicable after the end of their marriage.
McClain and Lindstrom admitted at the time that the failed relationship might not come as such a surprise to some based on their lack of presence in each other’s social media posts.
'We are taking this opportunity to make a short statement about our relationship status. It may be obvious to some based on our posts that we've taken some time apart,' they began.
'After serious consideration we have decided that our goals have been taking us in different directions and to end our marriage. We remain friends and wish each other every happiness.’
They concluded their message by requesting a degree of privacy from their fans during a difficult time.
'As people who work in the public eye, it can be difficult to have a private life. Regardless, we ask for your kind consideration in this matter,' they wrote.
The soap opera favorites actually met while working on As The World Turns.
From 1997 to 2003, the actor was previously married to fellow soap opera actress Eileen Davidson, best known for her roles on Days of Our Lives and The Young and the Restless.

Lindstrom eventually moved on with McClain, and the pair went on to tie the knot in 2014.
Both Lindstrom and McClain are well-seasoned performers in the soap opera genre.
From 2020 until 2023, McClain played Jennifer Horton on Days of Our Lives. She also slipped into character as Dixie Cooney on All My Children and Kelly Andrews in The Young and the Restless.
Lindstrom is also well known for portraying the dual characters of Ryan Chamberlain and Kevin Collins on General Hospital.
