Actor Mel Gibson Gave 850M As Divorce Settlement

Yesterday Dec 23th, Mel Gibson’s divorce case was finalized with ex-wife, Robyn Moore. And he has been awarded half his $850 million fortune in their divorce settlement. The ‘Braveheart’ actor is now officially a single man after his almost 30 years of marriage life with Robyn Moore. She is a mother of seven children with Mel Gibson and their marriage life was officially ended at a Los Angeles court yesterday.

 This divorce settlement is the biggest settlements in the Hollywood history because the couple didn’t have a prenuptial agreement, Robyn, 55, was legally entitled to half of everything he earned during their marriage and she is also entitled to 50 per cent of Mel’s future film earnings. Robyn has two Malibu homes worth an estimated $22.5 million and that was filed for a legal separation in April 2009 citing “irreconcilable differences” as a reason for ending their marriage.

 And it is said that earlier this month, Mel won praise from Judge Stephanie Sautner, who is overseeing his battery case against former girlfriend Oksana Grigoreiva after he completed double the amount of anger management and domestic violence counseling he was required to undertake. The 55-year-old star has pleaded no contest to misdemeanor battery against his ex-girlfriend – who he has two-year-old daughter Lucia with and is currently on informal probation.

 In March, Mel was sentenced to a year-long domestic violence counseling programme over the incident, which occurred in January 2010, and he was also served with a protective order not to “threaten or harass anyone involved in the case”. The judgment entered by Los Angeles Superior Court judge Mark Juhas keeps virtually all details of the pair’s split confidential. The couple had seven children together, but only their 12-year-old son is a minor and subject to a custody agreement.
