Paul McCartney & Heather Mills: ~ $49 Million Settlement
After the death of his beloved first wife, beloved Beatles musician, Sir Paul McCartney was single for a few years before he married English former model, Heather Mills. Their marriage lasted just 4 years, and they acrimoniously divorced in 2008.
Mills had originally asked for around $160 million alimony from Paul, but as the final judgement was declared, she received just a fifth of what she wanted, plus $70,000 per month for their only child, their daughter Beatrice.
