Quinta Brunson shared an optimistic outlook for the future of her career and admitted that she is “looking forward” to when the Abbott Elementary chapter is closed. The 35-year-old opened up about her Hollywood dreams in a conversation with Bustle as its latest cover star.

In March, The Associated Press reported Brunson’s quiet split from her now ex-husband, Kevin Anik — whom she was married to for three years. Now, in a June 30 cover story for Bustle, the “Abbot Elementary” creator is finally addressing it on her own terms.

Quinta Brunson, star of 'Abbott Elementary,' gets candid about public interest in her private life after news of her divorce from Kevin Anik broke earlier this year.
