Paul McCartney really must be one of the dumbest dumb fucks in the world if new reports are to be believed surrounding his pre-nup to future wife Nancy Shevell.
You might remember that Paul had a huge divorce battle with Heather Mills that turned very ugly and seen him having to pay her $50 million in the final court ruling. Now he is walking in to his next marriage with no pre-nup again. A source spoke to Popeater saying:
“His friends and business advisers think he’s crazy after what happened with his ex, but Paul is insisting Nancy is no Heather, There’s no need to make marriage a business arrangement. are the perfect couple. And have both had a huge impact on each other. She has once again shown him that falling in love doesn’t have to hurt. This one will last forever, she is the opposite of Heather and hates the public spotlight, plus she doesn’t need his money to live a great life.”
Apparently his legal team have drawn up a single-page agreement that states if the marriage goes south then the only thing she won’t go for is the trust fund he has for his kids. Anything else is up for grabs.
Although the thing that’s working in his favor is that if the marriage does fail she is pretty rich herself, she has her own business in New York and her father, Mike Shevell, is a trucking tycoon and his a huge fortune himself so she doesn’t need Paul’s money.
That’s all well and good but we all know that when people do break up it nearly always goes nasty. I guess love does really make some people blind huh?
The Firsky have come up with a list of 10 celebrity couples who stupidly never had a prenup and because of that have lost money to each other.
Kelsey Grammer and Camille, his wife of 13 years, are getting a divorce and, like so many who’ve eschewed Kanye‘s advice, there was no prenuptial agreement. This is kind of a big deal for Grammer, who was the highest paid actor on television during “Frasier”‘s 11-year run, making $1.6 million an episode towards the end. Grammer is requesting that some of his earnings be declared separate property, but that will only cover the first four years of the show, leaving the last seven years up for a 50/50 split. Plus, Camille is Kelsey’s third wife, so with the history and that psychology degree (just kidding), you’d think he would’ve known better!
Screaming mad Mel Gibson and his ex-wife Robyn got divorced last year, after 28 years of marriage, about three of them separated. And since there was no prenup, Robyn was eligible for 50 percent of Mel’s estimated $900 million that he earned by the time of their separation. Which is probably what she deserves for putting up with him.
Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe seemed like a dream couple, but when they got divorced in 2005, the lack of a prenup became a problem for Reese. The actress was pulling in $20 million a movie by that point while Ryan was making around $2.5 million. Under California law, their earnings were split 50/50. On the plus side, their kids are super cute.
It’s kind of shocking that Madonna and Guy Ritchie didn’t have a prenup, considering Madonna’s worth an estimated $500 million. She ended up paying Ritchie between $76 and $92 million in the divorce. Who needs jobs when we can just get divorces?
Ellen Degeneresand Portia de Rossi are the only couple in this slideshow who haven’t gotten divorced! They got married in 2008, and though Ellen is worth around $63 million, it’s been said that she thinks prenups are “unromantic.” I hope they’re always married—they’re super cute together and make me feel warm and fuzzy about marriage.
The Dream and Christina Milian were married for about a year when they announced their separation. They’ve got a baby together now and though Milian is a self-made millionaire, The Dream has a small fortune and sans prenup, Christina is entitled to part of it.
Roseanne Barr and Tom Arnold were totally in love in 1990, and Roseanne fired her attorney for suggesting a prenup. But four years later, Arnold walked away from their divorce with $50 million … and a Roseanne tattoo on his chest!
Even though it was Larry King‘s eighth marriage this time around, he didn’t get a prenup with Shawn Southwick. So when he allegedly cheated on her with her sister, his estimated $144 million could have been split 50/50. Thank goodness they’ve reunited—for now.
When Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey got married in 2002, it probably seemed like they had equal earning potential. But when they got divorced three years later, Jessica offered Nick $1.5 million, which he rejected, and ended up forking over “far less” than half of her estimated $36 million income during the time they were married, but “significantly” more than her original offer. Who knew 98 Degrees wasn’t going to last forever?
Everyone urged Paul McCartney to get a prenup when he married Heather Mills, but when they got divorced five years in, she made about $35 million. Plus, McCartney has to pay for their daughter’s nanny and education until she’s 18-years-old which costs $70,000 a year. Maybe Mills and Guy Ritchie should get together and make a Scrooge McDuck money swimming pool?

According to The Sun Heather Mills is stupid for many reasons, blowing through $20 million over $50 million divorce settlement is one of them.
Mills was awarded the money in her divorce with Paul McCartney back in March but so far she has spent $19 million on her home which includes a $5 million apartment in New York City, $6 million on other homes and $2 million “that her boyfriend Jamie Walker, 36, is building at her request, although he is recovering from a broken leg.”
On top of this she has paid her staff about $500,000 and donated $1 million in vegetarian food to children in the Bronx.
A source said “Heather’s been moaning her money isn’t going as far as she thought, but she’s just burning her way through it. She reckons she has spent £10million since the divorce and still doesn’t have a finished house to live in. She hasn’t changed. In her eyes the whole world is against her.”
What the hell? I can’t even conceive the idea of spending that much money in such a little time and what kids want vegetarian food donated to them?
We’re the YouTube Generation, living in the YouTube Era, in a YouTube World. And now we apparently have a YouTube Divorce.
Some prominent New York divorce lawyers couldn’t think of another case where a spouse – in this instance, the wife of a major Broadway theater operator – had taken to YouTube to spill the secrets of a marriage in an apparent effort to gain leverage and humiliate the other side.
“This is absolutely a new step, and I think it’s scary,” said Bonnie Rabin, a divorce lawyer who has handled high-profile cases. “People used to worry about getting on Page Six (the gossip page of the New York Post). But this? It brings the concept of humiliation to a whole new level.”
In a tearful and furious YouTube video with close to 150,000 hits to date, former actress and playwright (“Bonkers”) Tricia Walsh-Smith lashes out against her husband, Philip Smith, president of the Shubert Organization, the largest theater owner on Broadway.
She goes through their wedding album on camera, describing family members as “bad” or “evil” or “nasty,” and talks about how her husband is allegedly trying to evict her from their luxury apartment. She also makes embarrassing claims regarding their intimate life, and then calls his office on camera to repeat those claims to a stunned assistant.
Famed divorce attorney Raoul Felder, called for comment on the video, termed the whole thing “funny, but there’s also sadness. This is a victim who is holding her head up. I think she comes off well.”
Then again, Felder allowed that he is now representing Walsh-Smith – though he wasn’t when she made the YouTube video.
As for Smith, his office said he had no comment and his lawyers said they didn’t, either – “other than that we’re kind of appalled.”
Heather Mills walked the red carpet at the 2008 Miss USA Pageant — the crowd booed her. As if that wasn’t embarrassing enough — her boobs were crooked!
The former model’s overzealous attempt to lift and separate turned heads for all the wrong reasons over the weekend.
But the night went from bad to worse for the 39-year-old, was later booed and jeered as she was introduced on the judging panel.
Heather has previously claimed that public opinion of her in the US was “99 per cent positive,” and was left visibly upset when part of the audience at the Planet Hollywood hotel began to heckle as she took to the stage with hosts Donny and Marie Osmond.
The bad news for us? It looks like the rumors are true and Heather plans to move to the United States.
“In England, people don’t like me. But I’m going to move to America, Los Angeles hopefully. I love England but everything that has happened makes me realize I’ll be better off in the States.”
Her appearance at the beauty pageant came just days after she launched an astonishing tirade against Sir Paul McCartney and “his three girlfriends” on GMTV, saying: “I wish all the girls the best of luck. Better them than me.”
I fear for this woman’s life.
