Phil Collins divorce payout beats Paul McCartneys
August 20, 2008 2:54 pm Celebrity Divorces
We really do wonder here in the Diva office if Phil Collins has a clue when it comes to marriage or divorce, the Genesis star has already had two divorces and his third one has now cost him 25 million this is now the highest celebrity divorce payout on record beating Paul McCartney’s settlement with the wonderful Heather Mills which stood at 24.3 million.
The total cost of all his divorces has cost him a massive 42 million according to the Mirror. Which is actually a third of his total wealth.
Collins marriage to former wife, Orianne Cevey lasted 6 years, and they have two children. Collins, 57, met Cevey, 35 when he was still married to Jill Tavelman, it’s reported that Collins dumped Tavelman by fax and the shacked up with Cevey in Switzerland. Collins met Cevey when she was just 22 years old. The divorce settlement to Tavelman cost him 17 million and they had one daughter Lilly.
Collins first wife Andrea Bertorelli, left him for the decorator and they have two children that are now adults.
So we are wondering will Collins think about a pre-nuptial next time, he may be a great musician but we think he needs some guidance in the area of divorce.
