Sorry Katie and Peter…you’re not such big names in the world of divorce actually. In today’s world of celebrity divorce settlements, some of the battles over the years have been quite staggering.

Even Paul McCartney’s divorce of Heather Mills is dwarfed in comparison to some of the names that top a list quoted in the Telegraph’s online newspaper back in 2008. This big divorce and think Jordan (not Katie Price but Michael Jordan), Steven Spielberg, Michael Douglas, Mick Jagger, and Donald Trump, whose wife Ivana managed to wrestle a cool $25m dollars back in the early 1990s.

The list provided by the Telegraph (March 17th, 2008) lists the following cases. The source of the information is from Forbes Magazine:

£75.5 million - Michael Jordan versus Juanita Jordan

£75.5 million - Neil Diamond versus Marcia Murphy

£50 million - Steven Spielberg versus Amy Irving

£41 million - Kevin Costner versus Sindy Silva

£30 million - Kenny Rogers versus wife Marriane

£25 million - James Cameron versus Linda Hamilton

£24.3 million - Sir Paul McCartney versus Lady McCartney

£23 million - Michael Douglas versus first wife Diandra

£15 million - Ted Danson versus Casey Coates

£7.5 to £12.5 million - Mick Jagger versus Jerry Hall

Mel Gibson is set to become one of the big names supposedly about to top the list. If you can think of any other divorces that aren’t included in this blog post please let me know!!!
