Celebrities understand the importance of a well-written prenuptial agreement.  A prenup is meant to protect both parties in the event of a divorce. Usually, a well-written prenup sets out important terms; such as division of finances, homes, cars, and monthly spousal support.  Of course, a prenup can also showcase many interesting demands, as seen by these well-known celebrities below.

Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom 

Should Khloe and Lamar divorce, their prenup states that Khloe will receive $500,000 for each year they’re married, $25,000 a month in spousal support, their house, a new car at the end of every lease cycle, $5,000 a month for shopping, $1,000 a month for beauty care, and season courtside Lakers tickets for her whole family.  Because if she’s no longer married to Lamar, there’s another Lakers player she might be interested in…

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban

Should these two Aussies split, under the terms of their prenup, Keith will make about $640,000 for every year that he and Nicole were married. However, there is one exception: if Keith ever uses illegal drugs – he is a recovering addict – he won’t get a penny.

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes

Rumors about their prenup abound, but one thing we are pretty sure about: in the event of a divorce, Katie will receive $3,000,000 per year they were married, up to $33 million. But after 11 years, a Sunset Provision voids the agreement and Holmes could receive half of Cruise’s plentiful bounty.

Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones

Catherine and Michael’s prenup contains a very popular — especially among the celebrity set — ‘cheating clause.’ Should Michael ever be caught cheating, he owes Catherine $5 million.  And $2.8 million for each year they were married.

You don’t have to be a celebrity to have a prenup.  A prenup is a very smart contract that allows couples to calmly discuss important issues, such as finances, before their wedding day.  Contact the experienced family law attorneys at Foresight Legal Group today for more information on prenups.

Celebrity couples are always divorcing, or so it seems.  We wondered: is every celeb couple wise enough to sign a prenup before their big day or are some of these very wealthy couples forced to part with a big chunk of money?  So here you go… 4 of the most expensive celebrity divorces.  Some of these costly splits could have been avoided with a prenup!

1. Rupert Murdoch and ex-Wife Anna

We’ve all been hearing about Rupert lately.  He of pie-in-the-face fame and wiretapping for news leads.  Well, in 1999, the FOX/News Corp. chairman Rupert Murdoch divorced his wife, Anna, after 32 years of marriage. Total assets involved? $1.7 billion.  Yikes.

2. Michael Jordan and ex-Wife Juanita

Everyone knows basketball great Michael Jordan.  His prowess on the basketball court has been praised for years.  But did you know about one of his biggest financial losses? After 17 years of marriage, Michael and long-time wife Juanita divorced. Total assets involved? $168 million.

3. Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren

By now, we’ve all heard the sordid details about Tiger’s exploits off the gold course.  It’s no surprise that when the stories came to life, now ex-wife Elin divorced Tiger after 6 years of marriage.  Golf champ Tiger Woods was forced to fork over a rumored $100 million in assets to ex Elin.

4. Madonna and Guy Ritchie

She’s a Material Girl… And she was forced to cough up a lot of material items, namely in the form of cash.  After 8 years of marriage, and one child, actress/singer Madonna and director Guy Ritchie divorced in 2008. Total assets involved: Between $76 to $92 million.

On Saturday, Kim Kardashian and now-husband Kris Humphries tied the knot in a lavish wedding ceremony at an estate in the gorgeous, exclusive community of Montecito, California.  Kim, 30 years old, was married once before.  Humphries, a 26 year old NBA player, has never been married.  The ceremony took place in front of 450 of Kim and Kris’ closest friends and family.  Kim, who’s father Robert Kardashian passed away several years back, was walked down the aisle by her step-father Bruce Jenner.

Kim and Kris dated for about 8 months before they got married.  Kris proposed to Kim with a 20 carat diamond ring, which some believe Kim paid for herself by working out a publicity deal.  Makes sense because although Kris earns around $3 million a year playing basketball, the ring is worth an estimated $2 million.

Although it was her second wedding, Kim walked down the aisle in a white Vera Wang dress and wore a jeweled head band.  Kris wore a white tuxedo and the wedding colors were a very chic black and white.  For a short video of the Kris and Kim wedding, click here.

The couple is rumored to have signed a prenup before their big day.  Kris is estimated to be worth $8 million and Kim $35 million, so protecting their individual and pre-marital assets would have been a wise decision on both ends.  No matter what your net worth, signing a prenuptial agreement before your wedding is generally a good idea.  A properly written prenup will protect you in the case of divorce or, sadly, your partner’s death.  The family law attorneys at Foresight Legal Group can help you write the right prenup for you and your spouse-to-be.

Three months after his divorce from Lisa Ann Russell was finalized, Saved by the Bell’s Zach Morris aka Mark-Paul Gosselar proposed to his new girlfriend, blonde bombshell advertising executive Catriona McGinn.  Those celebs certainly waste no time jumping back into the marriage game! What’s more: he proposed with a 5-carat ring from famed jewelry designer to the stars Neil Lane — there’s no way Catriona was about to turn Mark-Paul down.

We hope Mark-Paul paused to consider his assets before proposing… Mark-Paul has likely saved some of his earnings as a child star on Saved by the Bell. Without a prenup, his wife-to-be could potentially claim half of all interest earned on that money during their marriage as community property.

You’re probably wondering how, exactly, that works.  Well, California is a community property state.  That means that unless there is a written agreement to the contrary (i.e. a prenup), all property (money, homes, cars, artwork, etc…) gained during the marriage is considered half yours and half your spouse’s — even if you were the person who acquired the property.   A properly written prenup could prevent the court from automatically splitting your property 50/50, regardless of ‘ownership.’

If Mark-Paul didn’t ask his new fiance to sign a prenup, he doesn’t have to despair.  A prenup can be drafted up and signed by both partners up to the wedding day.

Wondering what’s going on in the love lives of this week’s most talked about celebrities?  You aren’t alone!  Read on to learn about the latest in Hollywood break ups and hook ups.

For the first time since she announced her separation from Marc Anthony, Jennifer Lopez, aka J.Lo, speaks about her failed marriage.  In the newest edition of Vanity Fair (on newsstands in September), Jennifer tells the magazine that she still believes in love.  In fact, she says “It’s still my biggest dream. I am positive — determined to move forward with my life, bring up my babies, and do the best job I can as a mother, entertainer, and person. I now look forward to new challenges. I feel strong.”  Jennifer also shares that she’s a hopeless romantic and that all the men in her life have pursued her.  As for her likely divorce to Marc Anthony, Jennifer sounds like she feels like she has done the right thing for her and her two children with Anthony.  Wonder if they signed a prenup?

Up next in celebrity romance gossip: Bachelorette Ashley.  Most of you probably watched her get burned by Bachelor Brad Womack on last season’s ‘The Bachelor.’  Well, she returned to ABC as The Bachelorette, determined as ever to find love.  In the last episode she did, with a proposal (complete with a Neil Lane ring!) from NYC construction manager JP. According to recent interviews of the couple, they are happy as ever and falling more in love every day.  Some stories do have a happy ending!
