A state appeals court ruled today that Michael Strahan the retired New York Giant defensive should not have to pay the full child support for his two twins that was a staggering $18,000 a month, neither does he have to pay for his ex-wife’s lawyers fee’s or have to pay for a multi-million dollar disability insurance policy.

Jean Strahan, the ex wife of Michael was awarded by a state Superior Court Judge awarded $15.3 million, in addition to child support. Strahan paid half of the $15.3 and appealed against the child support saying it was too high, and that Jean was not entitled to $6.5 million which was part of a pre-nuptial agreement, he also said his wife got everything that she was due.

The three-judge panel in New Jersey Appellate Division today said that it was unfair Strahan was required to pay 91 percent of the child support since his ex-wife, Jean Strahan, was well-educated and employable. Judge Lorraine Parker wrote “Both parents have a shared obligation to support their children.”

The court questions many of the expenses such as, $30,000 for the girls in landscaping and $3,000 in audio visual expenses.

In July 1999 the couple married, and their twin daughters were born in October 1999, Strahan filed for divorce from Jean in March 2005.
