Ending a marriage is hard, and often takes months or years to finalise.
Add to that, the division of assets and finances, and both parties are in for a real nightmare!
We’ve put together a list of some of the most publicised and expensive divorces on the planet!
So, without further ado, here’s a list of the 10 most expensive divorces in the world.

1. Jeff and MacKenzie Bezos

Settlement amount: As high as $70 billion.

The world’s richest man, Jeff Bezos, and his wife announced they are parting ways after 25 years of marriage.

The couple, who wed one year before amazon was founded, reportedly did not have a prenuptial agreement.
The couple met while both were working at the hedge fund D.E. Shaw in New York. After they moved to Seattle, MacKenzie helped Jeff get Amazon off the ground.

On April 4, they announced the terms of their divorce, which will likely become official over the summer: She will receive about 4% of Amazon’s
outstanding shares,now worth over $35 billion.

Jeff will hold on to all of the rocket company Blue Origin and the Washington Post.

MacKenzie is in the top 5 world’s third-richest woman list due to this settlement.

This eventual settlement will place them at the top of the pack for expensive splits.

Even if Bezos, like Harold Hamm,
was ordered to pay his ex-wife just 5 percent of his total net worth, that would land her as much as $6.8 billion.

2. Alec Wildenstein and Jocelyn Wildenstein

Cost: $3.8 Billion.

French-American businessman and art dealer Alec Wildenstein divorced his wife Jocelyn Wildenstein in 1999.

Together for 21 years, the couple didn’t see eye to eye anymore and decided to call it a day.

Jocelyn received $2.5 billion up front and then a further $100 million every year for 13 years.
This adds up to a staggering $3.8 billion! Holy hell!!

Jocelyn Wildenstein, widely known for her many cosmetic surgery procedures, she was instructed by a judge not to use her alimony payments for cosmetic surgery.

Alec Wildenstein died of cancer in 2008 at age 67.

Only the wife takes settlement, what bout the husband

CosmicPhoenix:

lord knows i will gladly put a bullet in her head than give her benefits she didnt work for.

THE WORST PART IS THAT SOME OF THESE LAME MEN WENT ON TO MARRY TWO OR THREE MORE TIMES, LOSING MORE CASH IN DIVORCE SETTLEMENTS ON THE WAY. DEMONIC POSSESSION IF YOU ASK ME BECAUSE THERE'S NO OTHER EXPLANATION FOR SUCH CANCEROUS FOOLISHNESS.

CosmicPhoenix:

it's very difficult to find a female billionaire who made it on her own without divorce settlements or an inheritance,which she most likely got from a man.

THAT'S GOOD FOR THEM. NOT MY BUSINESS.
MY ONLY WORRY IS THAT SOME NOTABLE MEN WENT THROUGH THE WHOLE DIVORCE SETTLEMENT PROCESS MORE THAN TWICE. SOME WERE LEFT BANKRUPT AND IN DEBT. PAYING CHILD AND SPOUSE SUPPORT TILL ETERNITY.
IS IT THAT THEY CAN'T LEARN SIMPLE LESSONS OR THEY'RE RATHER POSSESSED BY LEGIONS OF DEMONS? IT'S DUMBFOUNDING REALLY.

HOW CAN TWO WOMEN LEAVE YOUR SORRY ASS AND CART AWAY WITH YOUR CASH, THEN YOU PICK ANOTHER ONE BECAUSE OF LOVE AND STILL EXPERIENCE SAME THING, ONLY TO PICK A WIFE FOR THE FOURTH TIME AND THE CYCLE GOES ON.
FOR EXAMPLE, SCOTTY WOLFE MARRIED 31 DIFFERENT TIMES, AND DIVORCED SEVERALLY TOO. WHAT IS GOING ON?
