the easier choice is to side with him and say "damn hooker".
Has anyone care to read the part of the article that says they've been together for 24 years?? This is different from her (lets say being 24) getting hitched (to a 80ish year old guy) and divorcing the next day. Prenup or no, she deserves half of what they as a family make during the marriage IMHO. Take into consideration that the 2,7B is half of the conservative estimation of his wealth, which he tried to hide in offshore ventures and whatnot. It's just the matter that his ego was hurt when she tried to claim an island. I'm not downsizing that, it's a bold claim, but the island is 100 M, he got 6 B. C'mon man, let her have the island and some cash (let's say 05,B) and go your own separate ways.
Also, the picture in the first post is with the unidentified female, not his wife.
DISCLAIMER: I don't know if he had 6B when they got married, and if he did, then it's completely different story. As it is portrayed now, pay up, i say.
