Hollywood Stars Who Are Only In Relationships For The Money | FamepixNow
While it’s
great to see our favorite celebs trade vows, sometimes there are ulterior
motives
at work.
These stars may have married for love, but chances are their love of cash is
what really motivated
them to tie the knot.
Salma Hayek
She’s hot
enough to land any man on Earth, but Salma Hayek happened to land billionaire
French businessman Francois-Henri Pinault in 2009. They were engaged in 2007,
had daughter Valentina, split in 2008—during which Pinault fathered a daughter
with former supermodel Linda Evangelista—and reunited in 2009. Hmm...wonder
why...
Jerry Hall
Former
supermodel Jerry Hall first shacked up with Mick Jagger in 1976. They wed in an
unofficial ceremony in 1990—a union that British courts declared invalid in
1999. But she still left with a nice sum of cash. Hall is worth a cool $15 million herself, an
amount that has likely increased since she married billionaire Rupert Murdoch
in 2016.
Heather Mills
Before
marrying Sir Paul McCartney in 2002, Heather Mills was a quasi-famous British
model. While the
former Beatle seemed to adore Mills during their marriage, their bitter breakup suggests she
had other motives. They divorced four years later and she took home $50
million, which she suggests isn’t enough.
Furious after being awarded a
"paltry" sum after asking for $250 million in their settlement, she
griped to People: "Everybody knows
he is worth more than [$1.6 billion]." Unfortunately
for Mills, no amount of money can buy her class. "I don't care too much
for money.
Money can't
buy me love."
Kevin Federline
When Kevin
Federline hooked up with Britney Spears in 2004, he was a backup dancer who
dumped his
baby mama, Shar Jackson, days after she gave birth to his second son.
Federline
and Spears married within months, had two sons, and split in 2006.
Spears
reportedly called Federline her "worst mistake," but thanked him for
her babies.
Meanwhile,
the fertile Federline, who's fathered two more kids with current wife Victoria
Prince—for
a total of
six—reportedly received $20,000 in monthly support payments from Spears until
he
remarried.
Anna Nicole Smith
When Anna
Nicole Smith was 26, she married 89-year-old magnate J. Howard Marshall.
They were
together from 1994 until his death in 1995. In an effort to obtain some of
Marshall's vast fortune, despite not being named in his will, Smith would fight
and overturn judgments until her own death in 2007. Various judgments allotted
the model $474 million, then another $88 million.
Kim Kardashian
Radar Online
obtained court documents from Kim Kardashian's divorce from NBA player Kris
Humphries
indicating she made over $2 million from their marriage. She was paid $1.1
million for People's exclusive photos of the wedding, $175,000 for another People-exclusive
story, $90,000 for hosting her bachelorette party in a Las Vegas club, and
another $1 million for her televised E! Wedding special. And it wouldn’t be the
last time she cleaned up from a wedding. As for her wedding to Kanye West, InTouch claims that
Kardashian may have made roughly $10 million. A source said that Kardashian used her
experience from her wedding to Humphries to plan her wedding to West.
Said the source:
"She's
taping everything else so she can get things for free in exchange for the
exposure. They realized how much their wedding was costing, so they told E!
they wouldn't allow parts of it to be taped unless the network offered them
more than $15 million." Interesting. "I ain't sayin' she a gold digger…"
