Steven Spielberg and Amy Irving – Settlement: $100 Million

Who knew a napkin could cost $100 million? Steven Spielberg and Amy Irving started their connection in 1976 when she auditioned for “Close Encounters of the Third Kind.” They later wed in 1985 and had a son named Max.

The director’s hastily scribbled prenup couldn’t survive legal scrutiny, enabling the Oscar-nominated star to secure her $100 million settlement when their marriage ended in 1989. She later admitted the fallout felt invisibly painful. Even with everything that happened, the two forged an unlikely friendship. Amy and her husband, Kenneth Bowser, even went on double dates with Steven and his wife, Kate Capshaw.
