Jes Staley’s wife filed for divorce from the former Barclays Plc chief executive officer who stepped down and was then banned from the UK financial industry over his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.

Debora Staley’s divorce petition was filed March 13 in New York. Matrimonial cases in the state are confidential, and all of the filings are currently under seal. Her lawyer declined to comment. A lawyer who’s recently represented Staley didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.
