Kris Humphries Rejects $7 Million Settlement
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Sports, Television, Divorce, Legal Issues, Rumors,
Kris Humphries has reportedly turned down a $7 million divorce settlement.
The basketball ace was left stunned when Kim Kardashian filed for divorce in October after just 72 days of marriage but he is said to be refusing to sign documents to legally end the marriage unless the socialite admits "the entire wedding was staged by her and her family."
"Kim's camp is depicting him as money-hungry, but in fact he turned down a $7 million settlement. Her camp is putting out stories about 'Kim's divorce hell' hoping he'll cave in, but he won't. Kris wants Kim to admit to fraud, to admit the whole thing was staged for publicity, to make a public apology to him because he really wanted a marriage," a source told The New York Post.
The 27-year-old sportsman is said to be angry at the way he believes Kim's friends have tried to portray him in the media. "They are trying to spin Kim as the victim, but Kris isn't going to stand for it," the source added.

Kris Humphries is planning to "set the record straight" about his marriage to Kim Kardashian.
The NBA player has responded to claims he is seeking a $7 million settlement from the reality star despite having signed a pre-nuptial agreement that entitles him to nothing.
"No demands have been made. While we are encouraged to see an apparent willingness by the other side to put big numbers out in an attempt to settle Mr. Humphries' claims, we respect and will continue to observe the integrity of the legal process. One thing is certain: Kris Humphries intends to set the record straight," his lawyers said in a statement.
Meanwhile, his legal team has vowed to give Kris his day in court. "Much effort and energy to misdirect the public's perception of what transpired between Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries has taken place over the past several months. This case will not be resolved in the court of public opinion amidst ridiculous and defamatory allegations and personal attacks directed against Kris Humphries. Rather, this case will be appropriately investigated and litigated professionally and with integrity," the statement continued.

Mel Gibson Loses Half $850M Fortune in Divorce Settlement
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Break-ups, Divorce, Celebrity Babies, Legal Issues,
Mel Gibson's ex-wife has been awarded half his $850 million fortune in their divorce settlement.
The actor is now officially a single man after his almost 30-year marriage to Robyn Moore - mother of seven of his children - was officially ended at a Los Angeles court yesterday. The huge payout is thought to be one of the biggest divorce settlements in Hollywood history. Because the couple didn't have a prenuptial agreement, Robyn, 55, was legally entitled to half of everything he earned during their marriage and she is also entitled to 50 per cent of Mel's future film earnings. Robyn - who has two Malibu homes worth an estimated $22.5 million - filed for a legal separation in April 2009 citing "irreconcilable differences" as a reason for ending their marriage.
Earlier this month, Mel won praise from Judge Stephanie Sautner, who is overseeing his battery case against former girlfriend Oksana Grigoreiva after he completed double the amount of anger management and domestic violence counselling he was required to undertake. The 55-year-old star has pleaded no contest to misdemeanor battery against his ex-girlfriend - who he has two-year-old daughter Lucia with - and is currently on informal probation. In March, Mel was sentenced to a year-long domestic violence counseling program over the incident, which occurred in January 2010, and he was also served with a protective order not to "threaten or harass anyone involved in the case."
Oksana Grigorieva Turned Down Mel Gibson’s $15 Million

Oksana Grigorieva turned down a $15 million settlement offer from ex-lover Mel Gibson because he wanted shared custody of their daughter.
The Russian singer - who is currently involved in a bitter custody battle with Mel for their 11-month-old daughter Lucia - refused the huge financial offer because she didn’t want the “unstable” actor getting so much access to their child.
“The $15 million was a proposal that I walked away from because he wanted 50 per cent custody of an infant when he’s unstable.”
Oksana also claims Mel punched her in the head while she was holding Lucia, during an argument on January 6. “Mel ran in and started screaming all kinds of nasty words. Then he just hit me twice with his fist. Boom, boom, to my head and my mouth. I fell on top of the bed. I’m just covering the baby and not protecting myself. He proceeds to choke me with both his hands,” she said in an interview with People magazine.
The 40-year-old beauty alleges the 54-year-old actor used a mixture of threats and pleading to convince her not to leave him after the incident:

Phil Collins’ Expensive Divorce Settlement
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Divorce,
Earlier this year, singer Paul McCartney forked over approximately $45.37 million to get rid of his annoying ex-wife once and for all. While this seemed like a hefty sum (despite his large fortune), it turns out the Beatle walked away with a pretty good deal.
According to the Daily Mirror, Phil Collins has now reached the top of the divorce settlement leaderboard. The Genesis singer/drummer’s recent $46.68 million payout is the priciest check written by a British celeb ever. And, sadly, this isn’t the first time the musician has had to dig deep into his pockets.

This St. Patty’s Day has proved to be quite a lucky one for Paul McCartney. Today he officially washed his hands clean of Heather Mills.
The former Beatle and his ex left the High Court in London today after a financial agreement was finally ironed out in their bitter divorce. Although it was originally reported that Mills would receive somewhere in the neighborhood of $110 million, she came away with much less. Including assets she already owned, the 40-year-old will take away approximately $50 million dollars from the marriage. (That’s approximately $12.5 million for each year they were together.)
You can view her response to the settlement below:
Daddy will also give be giving their 4-year-old daughter, Beatrice, approximately $70,000 per year for her expenses.
