Celebrity Divorces That Ripped Fortunes Apart And Left Egos In The Gutter

Prince Charles and Princess Diana – Settlement: $22.5 Million

King Charles might be the head of the entire United Kingdom, but he was once a prince. He first locked eyes with Princess Diana at Althorp in 1977 when she was still a teenager; their courtship officially began in 1980 after a heartfelt moment during a country gathering.

These two had a fairytale ceremony at St. Paul’s Cathedral in July 1981, watched by millions. But by 1992, the cracks of infidelity and royal pressure led to separation, with the divorce finalized in 1996. The settlement apparently included a lump sum of $22.5 million and an annual $600K to fund her private office.
