From Bitten & Bound
Madonna has settled her divorce with director Guy Richie to the hefty tune of $76 million, according to the singers spokeswoman. Liz Rosenberg actually said the figure is between $76 million and $92 million. Besides cash assets, Richie will keep their country home Ashcombe House and the couple’s west London pub, the Punchbowl. Who knew they owned a bar?
Madonna’s fortune is said to be worth $525 million. Her payout to Richie will hardly made a dent. Even so, Guy reaped twice what Sir Paul McCartney settled upon Heather Mills.
Madonna and Guy were married in December 2000 at Skibo Castle in the Scottish Highlands. Reports indicate that turning over the two British properties was a no-brainer for the ‘Material Girl’, who has no intention of living in the UK following their split, preferring her New York digs.
The couple will share custody of sons Rocco Richie and David Banda, though custodial arrangements are not yet worked out.
