Number of Divorces: 2
Settlements: -$1.0 billion
Settlement Amount: $1.0 billion
Well folks, there's love and then there's a serious light bulb moment, where you recognize that 'love' may just be a significantly large hole residing in your gigantic wallet! Stepping up for this perfect thumping honor roll is eminent oil tycoon, Harold Hamm. Personally, I'd just change my last name to 'Hammered', because most would comment that's pretty much how his finances got pelted after his showdown down at divorce court.
The star-studded culprits? One Sue Ann Arnall, taking Big Oil by literal storm and raking off a gorgeous heaping of billion dollars in settlements. Bite into that sandwich and relish the overwhelming burst of 'money caviar', Sue Ann! Considering her eyes held the significant shine of half that amount on their wedding day. Now, for those wondering if dear Harold held any victory in such heart-crunching proceedings? We weep to say, the signboard sadly flashes a resounding 'no'. In this episode of Hamm’s love life, the 'petrol-hardened' tycoon found more crude under his feet in the court than any oilfield in the world.
But hey, we know it's not a laughing matter… Yes, it's a downright rolling-on-the-floor, tear-inducing, hysterical comedy! After all, considering that Hamm could effectively have purchased his own monumentally-sized country in Middle Earth or perhaps hitched his fortunes to colonize with somewhat eager eccentric billionaire, Elon Musk - it goes to reason that laughter might just be the best medicine for a royal billion-dollar hammering! Ah, ain't love just grand?
