Kelsey Grammer's Divorce Will Cost Him $50 Million
Kelsey Grammer's divorce from
Camille Donatacci will cost the 55-year-old actor around $50 million.
According to
TMZ, the couple did not have a
prenuptial agreement, which means all earnings during the marriage will be split down the middle. During their 13 years of marriage, the couple amassed a fortune in excess of $100 million, most of which is in real estate.
The couple has homes in the Holmby Hills area of Los Angeles, Malibu, Hawaii, the Hamptons, New York City and Colorado. The pair is said to be working out a financial settlement.
Donatacci is also entitled to a part of the back-end profits and syndication money from 'Cheers' and 'Frasier' that Kelsey makes. Grammer recently tried to
block her access to his accounts.
It was reported yesterday that Grammer is asking for his divorce decree
as soon as possible. Under California law, a divorce can become final six months after a petition is filed. Camille filed on July 1, 2010.
Should the judge grant Grammer's request, he can marry his girlfriend, Kayte Walsh, as soon as Jan. 1, 2011. Kelsey and Kayte recently
got engaged, although Grammer's divorce is not yet finalized.

Camille is probably no walk in the park, but neither is Kelsey. I think the marriage got too "big" for Kelsey. And everytime the wife gets into business with the husband the marriage usually fails. Camille was not appealing to Kelsey anymore I think. But that Katye hooking up with Kelsey while he is still married. What the heck is she thinking? The whole thing is a mess. What else is new in Hollywood - lol...

Hey pops, stop marrying your hookers. Also, this is costing you more than money. You now appear buffoonish.

Wow maybe her face will pop after she gets that money. She can buy all that extra botox and plastic surgery. She is one weird looking woman..actually, she is just plain weird.

She'll get her 50 million and then star in the Divorced Wifes of Beverly Hills.

From what I've seen of Camille on the Housewives of Beverly Hills - well it's not that flattering. However she was his wife for 13 years and has helped him build the wealth he has now so YES she deserves half! What annoys me about Kelsey is the fact that he left his two young children and it seems like he isn't even looking back. Thank God for all the nannies and house managers who will help raise them.

I do not care for this woman, never have. Shes a user in every way. Just because she was married to a man with lots of money, doesnt mean she should get half of his earnings.
Its these kinds of woman that give all good woman a bad name.
I wish kelsey all the very best of luck with his new girl friend, and I wished he would be more careful in the future with his money.
Just because we love someone, dont mean they cant sign a piece of paper.

Tellme, how well do you know her? How many years ago were you introduced and how much time have you spent with her? That is what I thought, you don't and have not. How can you possible know if you like her or not? You may not like her work but her work is not the real person. Get a clue and figure it out. On the other hand, I don't think that I would like you .......so there. ROFLMBO
THE MAN WAS MARRIED FOUR TIMES HE IS A SERIAL CHEAT, SHE SHOULD GET ALL THE MONEY HE DONT WANT HIS KIDS, NEVER WENT TO SEE THEM IN FOUR MONTHS.THE YOUNG BIMBO WAS MORE IMPORTANT, JUST ANOTHER OLD BALDING MAN TRYING TO STAY YOUNG
Seems to me he needs to take a break...maybe stay single and keep some of his money!

Poor Kelsey having to pay that gold digging witch all that money. Having watched her in HWBH she is a bit***, she is a psycho. Kelsey at least you are rid of her.

How dense are you? Are you not aware that she is playing a role in the program? That is a scripted program and NOT REAL by any means. People like you make me worry about the future of the world, let alone the country. Tell me, do you think that Grammer in person is any of the many roles he has played on TV? Again, if you do, I think nyou are an idiot.
I think this is the chick that craps her pants at any given moment. This should buy her plenty of diapers.

If the lush is Camille type of friends she runs around with.. I truly feel sorry for her children. The lush (her behavior was downright disgusting)just proofed that Camille loves that type of negative attention around her. Kyle out beats Camille in looks-the jealous one is Camille...... have you looked at Kyle lately?! She's GORGEOUS!

IDIOT!

I wish Kelsey ALL THE LUCK IN THE WORLD TOO. I have always enjoyed Kelsey in anything he does and I fully support his decision in moving on with new lady. Camille did nothing positive for him and Kelsey knows this. Kelsey's new lady is beautiful and young! What else can this man want? Nada, zip, zilch, nothing! Be glad to be rid of Camille, Kelsey, she's very homely looking and not too attractive and old. Kelsey, call Mauricio (Kyle's real-estate husband) for your property transactions. Mauricio is another handsome man!

So its okay for men to marry women just based off looks and their body but not okay for women to marry for money? Yeah sorry its the same thing....

I've never watched the show but read an article about this while I was at the Dr. office. She seemed totally blindsided by this and didn't mention any problems in their marriage. She seemed to be truly in love with her. I'm wondering what happened in such a short time that he is in such a hurry to get it over with? I wonder if he ever really loved her? Maybe seeing her on the show made him see her in a different light?
He's had plenty of baggage I do believe? Three marriages and didn't his second marriage end after he and his wife were heavily into cocaine?
I watched one clip from this show and honestly, why do people watch this garbage? These people are shallow, narrow minded, concieted, phony and living so far out of reality it's not even funny.
BTW, what makes her a gold digger? It's not like she asked out of this relationship and by all accounts it sounds like she would still very much like to have kept the relationship. Like I said I haven't watched the show and her personality may be akin to a blow up dall for all I know but she is entitled to half of everything he earned while they were married.

No I am not a germ-a-phobic...But just in case you didn't know it touching and handling magazines in a doctors office was found to be unheathly and a direct cause of oher illnesses suffered by waiting room patients
Good, for her!

Blackie Boston you must be a man. I do not have to meet her or spend time with her to see what kind of a person she is. Have you ever watched her on that show she is on. She is a total bit**. Stop thinking with your other head and open your eyes. You are a moron.
