Number of Divorces: 1
Settlements: +$30.0 million
Settlement Amount: $30.0 million
You may know Ted Danson for his slicked back hair and that charming turn in “Cheers” but did you know about his whopping $30 million divorce with Casey Coates? It seems at the cost of yacht deals crisscrossing the Atlantic, their knot came undone, costing Danson a neat sum of $30 million. I guess it’s true what they say - behind every successful marriage, there's a pre-nup keeping you check!
Imagine holding a yard sale but instead of unloading an old-timey cookie jar shaped like a whimsical goose, you're on the string for millions of crisp dollars. Phew, talk about a garage sale that's reality TV worthy! This makes Coates one helluva lady and raises her in our Hall of Femme Fatales - they manage not just cupcakes and kids, but also molten suitcase-full of cash payouts.
Of course, the heartbreak of marriage ending is never a laughing matter but Coates and Danson's break-up must offer some relief to the college debt stricken among us who would happily take on their woes for a tiny fracture of that heft. Whatever 'Game of Thrones’ HBO paid Ted, his wallet must ache for the 'Cheers' ensemble days when his life had thirty million cheaper body slams. We wish them both happier days ahead minus any million dollar heartaches.
