ultimately settled and she paid him 2.1
million dollars so she could have sole
custody of the kids for her to spend a
hundred thousand dollars on lawyers just

no it’s no sweat for her for me it’s a
significant cut in my net worth in my
future and my kids futures number nine
Brandi Glanville and Eddie Cibrian our
relationship didn’t quite start off like
we had planned it did make a few
headlines this divorce was made for the
tabloids in 2009 the story broke that
Eddie cheated on Brandi with LeAnn Rimes
who was also married at the time when
the two were filming a made-for-tv movie
together
I just knew it you give a guy good sex
in a hot meal and now he’s asking you to
marry him Brandi who used the affair to
become a real housewife in the Beverly
Hills installment of the franchise
wasn’t one to keep quiet about their
marital issues all I said was the truth
so it’s not slander so I don’t
understand maybe they should watch what
they lie about on the show she revealed
that Eddie cheated on her numerous times
including with scheana Marie one of Lisa
Vanderpump’s waitresses and a cast
member on Vanderpump rules it’s harder
he’s gonna be my life forever forever
right they divorced in 2010 which left
Eddie free to marry LeAnn in 2011 and
the two then went on to have a
short-lived reality show this whole show
is based in comedy yeah and we we really
poked fun at ourselves and anytime we’re
joking about something else it’s after
we’ve already made fools of ourselves so
it’s um it’s all in fun number eight Kim
Kardashian and Kris Humphries and I was
in love and I wanted a life that I’ve
always pictured my fairytale life to be
it seemed like Kim and Chris’s marriage
was straight out of a fairy tale
after all he fit right into the family
with his kay name the couple even had
their lavish 10 million-dollar wedding
televised on Keeping Up with the
Kardashians I pronounce you husband and
wife
pretty lady
but after only 72 days Kym filed for
divorce in October 2011 Kris contested
the divorce and instead requested an
annulment on the basis of fraud on Kim’s
part I love my wife and I am devastated
to learn she filed for divorce I’m
committed to this marriage I’m willing
to do whatever it takes to make it work
he felt like he was used from the start
and the marriage was just a publicity
stunt Kris also accused her of cheating
on him with Kanye West you know I don’t
really play into all the gossip and
things that take place but you know it’s
it’s life
they were only officially divorced after
two years which left room for Kanye to
swoop right in
then you can’t tell me
number seven Kate Gosselin and Jon
Gosselin and it just we can’t be cordial
with one another then we decided to
separate looking back this divorce
wasn’t much of a surprise the couple
fought a lot on camera during their run
on TLC’s Jon and Kate Plus eight a show
that chronicled the challenges of
raising eight kids it’s a lot of work
I’m exhausted after we try to get a
picture don’t forget it who cares then
their divorce played out in the media
with John accusing Kate of using their
kids for Fame and being an absentee
mother he also claimed that the network
tried to keep them together for the sake
of the show our marriage fell apart and
I felt like I was free you know and I
kind of took advantage of it for a while
and um didn’t really think about my
actions obviously until I start getting
paparazzi and written about both sides
accused the other of cheating they
divorced in 2009 all honesty it was very
hard to watch Kate went on to compete on
Dancing with the Stars and continued
with the show with Kate Plus eight gotta
feel sorry for the kids on this one this
show could be called a Kate Plus Kate
because mommy does everything number six
Liza Minnelli and David guest and in
every way I feel right to sue her before
they were officially filing for divorce
both David and Liza were already suing
each other David wanted ten million
dollars from Liza for the neurological
damage she allegedly inflicted on him
with various beatings during the first
two years of their marriage before they
separated hitting you hard yeah she was
hitting me hard she was drunk and she
was hitting me hard did she hurt you I
didn’t really feel I was being hurt but
you could feel it Liza denied the claims
and countersued David claiming that he
stole two million dollars when he worked
as her producer but it doesn’t end there
these two traded insults in the press
regularly why did you let me marry this
idiot and he said he said I thought you
liked him David accused her of giving
him an STD and being an alcoholic
while Liza said he poisoned her and
drugged her throughout their marriage
thanks to a lack of evidence they were
granted a no-fault divorce in 2007
Oh
number five Linda Hogan and Hulk Hogan
and then it got to an aggressive violent
relationship where instead of saying
hello every word was the F word married
for 23 years Linda filed for divorce in
2007 from Hulk whose real name is Terry
Bollea claiming that he carried on an
affair during their marriage and then
the plan confessed to the affair too
broke out of guilt and somehow the the
letter got intercepted and that’s why we
all found out what followed was a
four-year battle to divide Hulk’s assets
according to him they blew through
hundreds of millions during their
marriage let’s be honest you know
watching their marital problems play out
on TV was pretty tough and uncomfortable
to watch
Linda received 40% ownership of his
companies 70% of their liquid assets and
a three million dollar property
settlement
for the top
after the divorce the couple remained in
the tabloids due to accusations in her
memoir that Hulk struggled with a drug
addiction and physically and mentally
abused her in drug-fueled rages and you
know it wasn’t like a knockout by Mike
Tyson or anything it was really just a
bullying or a Brawley kind of a thing
you know a poking or squeezing your face
or you know pulling you around by your
shirt or your hair number four
Heather Mills and Paul McCartney I’ve
had 18 months of this abuse and has come
from everywhere behind the scenes in
front of the scenes everywhere Heather
Mills was this Beatles second wife a
decision MCEs told the media was one of
the biggest mistakes he’s made after
only four years of marriage the couple
separated and two years after that they
began divorce proceedings
due to their constant fighting and lots
of time apart
Heather represented herself and
requested 250 million of Paul’s 800
million dollar fortune she claimed she
needed four hundred thousand dollars a
year for private flights $80,000 for
wine and 250 thousand dollars for
clothes the judge called bull on her
claims and awarded her forty eight point
six million dollars in addition to
$70,000 a year for child support and 15
million dollars in real estate
Oh
number three Denise Richards and Charlie
Sheen get that money before he has to
use it all on attorneys or whores or
whatever he spend his money on after
three years of marriage and when she was
several months pregnant with their
second daughter Denise filed for divorce
from Charlie claiming that he’d made
threats to kill her and that he abused
drugs and alcohol I was I trainwreck
watching someone you know go on that
path her accusations of his bad behavior
were later backed up when voicemails and
emails were released in which Charlie
told Denise quote you are a pig a sad
jobless pig who is sad and talentless
yeah at the end of that whole episode I
thought oh crap what am I done
lucky for her the divorce was finalized
in 2006 and after several years the two
are said to be in a good place
we even vacationed together which is odd
for some people and I would think so too
on the outside looking in but it works
for us
in 2011 Charlie had a similarly
troubling divorce with Brooke Mueller
who also made claims that Charlie was
abusive
so much for him winning I’m by winning I
went here and I win there now what
number two Elin Nordegren and Tiger
Woods I am deeply sorry for my
irresponsible and selfish behavior I
engaged in this divorce really opened a
can of worms about Tigers personal life
during Thanksgiving weekend of 2009
tiger and Elin made news after woods got
in a car accident hitting a fire hydrant
and a tree as he fled from an angry Elin
who was chasing him with a golf club
look what you did you’re crazy bitch
the press was shocked to uncover that
Tiger was a serial cheater and sex
addict who had at least 14 mistresses
most of whom were waitresses exotic
dancers and so-called models jobs when I
want to know how big Tiger is are you
allowed to comment on that Justin he’s a
better than adequate the whole Fiasco
was a major public embarrassment the
tiger publicly apologized for he then
paid out seven hundred and fifty million
dollars to Elin on the grounds that she
would never speak to the press about
their divorce
it was right after I had taken
communication and the media I was
unexpectedly thrust into the media
limelight and I probably should have
taken more notes in that class before we
unveil our number one pick here are some
honorable mentions it’s a sad situation
but we had to go through that to get to
where we are today I would hide a
British of a little bit more PLAs and at
least waited until we separated for us
before deciding to a Vorlon cape with
the help as it were people will tell you
if your husband is accused of sleeping
with someone half your age it has to
take a toll on you you know what I tend
to look towards the positive side you
know and the fact that we are Co parents
to our children and we’re gonna be you
know continued to be around beating each
other’s lives in a massive way yes
because of him number one Sandra Bullock
and Jesse James I knew I would get
caught eventually and I think I wanted
to get caught it was me trying to
self-sabotage my life this one breaks
our hearts the unlikely pairing of
America’s Sweetheart and the bad-boy
biker seemed to be a perfect case of
opposites attracting I always had this
feeling that if you got married it was
like the end of who you were and I just
never met anyone that was bigger than me
so then you meet Jesse James hmm the
couple had been married for five years
when a bombshell about one of Jesse’s
alleged mistresses was leaked it shocked
both the world and Sandra who had just
thanked him for his support in her
Oscars acceptance speech it turned out
that Jesse was a serial cheater who even
went to a sex rehab clinic for a strange
were there’s like a bunch of stripper
hood rats coming by the shop and stuff
all the time
one of his mistresses in particular
Michaele bombshell McGee came forward
and received a lot of media attention
for their 11 month affair during the
whole media scandal
I feel bad from even without the scandal
