The most expensive divorce in history: divorce cost the Russian billionaire $ 4, 5 billion

And in sorrow and in radosti

in the Swiss city of Geneva has recently completed a scandalous divorce, which became one of the main sensations of recent times. Geneva court ordered the 47-year-old Russian billionaire Dmitry Rybolovlev, who owns a French football club "Monaco", to pay his now ex-wife Helen for more than four billion Swiss francs (about $ 4, 5 billion), while its overall «Forbes» estimated at $ 8 , 8 billion.

Also staggering compensation Elena Rybolovleva inherited property in the Swiss town of Gstaad, which is estimated at $ 146 million, and some of the other property owned by the billionaire. The Court also confirmed the right of Helena on custody of their 13-year-old daughter Anna.



Lawyers for the ex-wife of billionaire argue that Elena is fully satisfied with the verdict, and call it a triumph of justice: by Swiss law wife is entitled to half of the state, hammered together her husband during their marriage. Nevertheless, lawyers, representing the interests of the wife, say that in the near future their client would appeal for judicial review, so Elena early to celebrate - likely hearings will last more than one month.

Dmitry and Elena combined knot back in 1987 in Perm, when they were students, and in just five years, the young entrepreneur actively involved in the privatization process of "BRIC" - the largest Russian enterprise for the production of potash fertilizers.
