On Tuesday, Jan. 7, the couple finalized their divorce, according to documents obtained by PEOPLE, and agreed on how they will split their shared property, cars and other personal belongings following the end of their four-year marriage.
Per the settlement, Abasolo, 44, will retain the couple's Miami condo, while Lindsay, 39, will keep their L.A. home in North Hollywood.
Both of them will also keep their wedding bands and Breitling watch — possibly a gift they'd both given each other — and Lindsay will also keep her engagement ring from The Bachelorette and a painting and photos by artist Jad Najjar.
The couple's vehicles will also be split between them, with Abasolo taking the 2021 Honda Accord while Lindsay takes the 2023 Porsche Macan.
