Gustin announced her pregnancy while divorcing Burton. Sheree Gustin, the ex-wife of Steve Burton, just gave birth to a girl. The 46-year-old single mother welcomed her baby Addy Jay on Friday, February 16, as she revealed on Sunday on her Instagram Story. At delivery, the newborn girl weighed 5 pounds, 5 ounces.
Gustin shared a picture of her lover on her Instagram Story, but she did not reveal his name. The General Hospital star and his ex-partner agreed to joint legal and physical custody of their minor children as part of a finalized divorce, as reported by PEOPLE a few weeks ago.
According to court documents obtained by PEOPLE, the Days of Our Lives actor, 53, and Gustin consented to the terms of their divorce in December, which included joint legal and physical custody of their minor children, Brooklyn, 8, and Jack, 17. Additionally, the pair have a 19-year-old daughter named Makena.
Burton filed for divorce formally in the Orange County Superior Court on July 7, 2022, and the couple did not enter into a prenuptial agreement, according to court documents obtained by PEOPLE. Burton, as evidenced by the documents, designated March 1 as the official date of their separation, citing irreconcilable differences.

Two months prior, Burton had startled fans by revealing that he and his fitness pro wife were no longer together. This was mentioned in the filing. In an Instagram Story post from May, the former General Hospital star stated, “I wanted to clear something up. Sheree and I are separated.”
“She recently announced that she is expecting her fourth child,” he said. I am not the parent of the child. Our three lovely children are still under our joint custody. For the moment, we would want privacy. Much love, Steve.

In May 2022, Sheree and Steve caused a stir when the General Hospital star disclosed that they had ended their relationship and that she was pregnant with a child with another man. (Their subsequent divorce papers indicated that their separation occurred in March 2022.)
In December 2023, Us Weekly verified that the divorce between Steve and Sheree had been finalized. Until April, the Days of Our Lives alum was ordered to pay child support of $12,500 per month to his ex-wife for Jack and Brooklyn (Makena is older than 18). The monthly payments are subsequently reduced to $10,000 until Brooklyn reaches the age of eighteen. Steve disregarded their respective entitlements to spousal support in exchange for a singular payment of $50,000 to Sheree.
