Scooter files for divorce

-

MUSIC mogul Scooter Braun has filed for divorce from his wife, Yael Cohen — less than two weeks after Page Six broke the news of their split.

Braun, 40, retained celebrity divorce lawyer Laura Wasser, whose past and current clients include Kim Kardashian, Dr. Dre, Angelina Jolie and Ryan Reynolds.

The court documents, filed in Los Angeles Wednesday, make it clear there is a prenuptial agreement in place between Braun and Cohen, 34 and co-founder of the health org F - - k Cancer.

Braun is seeking joint custody of his and Cohen’s three children: Jagger ,6, Levi, 4, and Hart ,2.

He has also agreed to pay his estranged wife spousal support.

Braun — the fiery music manager who discovered Justin Bieber and has been at the center of a very public spat with Taylor Swift after buying the rights to her early work — married Cohen in July 2014.

Despite publicly celebratin­g their anniversar­y on Instagram on July 6, just days later we revealed the two were splitting up.

“They’re friends,” said an insider, adding Braun and Cohen were still living together.

While sources said at the time that there were no plans to divorce, we’re told that Braun was the one to pull the plug on the marriage in the end. Page Six also revealed this month that Braun had secretly checked into an “intense psycho-spiritual retreat” months before his separation from Cohen.

Braun, who’d denied to Page Six that he’d entered the seven-day Hoffman Process program — which is all the rage at the moment in LA — later admitted on a podcast he had gone to the retreat after having the “darkest” thoughts of his life. “It was just feeling like I wasn’t present in my life, and [feeling] like the people around me who loved me, I felt their hurt,” he told the “On Purpose” podcast.

The supermanag­er also counts Ariana Grande and Demi Lovato as clients.
