Mel Gibson Loses Half His $850M Fortune

...to his ex, as part of divorce

(NEWSER) - In what's believed to be the largest Hollywood divorce settlement in history, Mel Gibson is having to cough up $425 million—half of his estimated fortune—to ex-wife Robyn Denise Moore. The two, married 31 years and parents to seven children, didn't have a prenuptial agreement, so Moore is entitled to half his wealth under California law. Moore, a former dental nurse, is also entitled to half of any future residuals from films Gibson, 55, worked on while the two were married, reports People . The settlement was finalized by a judge last week. Gibson earned $600 million alone from his The Passion of the Christ. He also made money from real estate, including a Fiji island he bought for $15 million. More»
