Well then keep that "lifestyle" on the DL. Wouldn't shock me one bit if he went Ray Caruth on her.

i am of the belief that whatever a man enters the marriage with is his, and the woman is hers.........and whatever happens during the marriage is split 50/50....

now the tricky area comes with custody of the kids or pets.....

That's they way it is in Texas.
For child support, I believe it is a federal law, unless approved differently by the courts, it is 15% or 20% per child.
Pets on the other hand, can be the forgotten ones and get screwed out of their fair share.

What, prenuptual agreement laws? The idiot voluntarily signed an agreement saying he would give her that much. He actually did this to himself.

Voluntarily??? I read it was him who asked her to sign the agreement. She was just asking the judge to uphold his agreement with her.

You are right...He did it to himself...from the get-go.

Laws in the US are totally bias towards Women!:bang2:


I agree with giving up some cash but 2/3 of your money just like that and all that child support is complete and utter Stupidity!.

STRAHAN HAS "LESS FAT" IN HIS WALLET

Giants defensive end Michael Strahan has come out on the losing end of his divorce proceedings. And, as a result, he'll have to fork over millions of dollars to his ex-wife.

According to the New York Post, Strahan has been ordered to pay Jean Strahan $15.3 million dollars.

Let's repeat that one. Fifteen-point-freaking-three million dollars. One-point-twenty-one gigawatts.

It's unbelievable. But not surprising, given that the Court merely ordered Strahan to honor the prenuptial agreement that promised his wife 50 percent of the marital estate and 20 percent of his annual earnings, each year and every year.

Strahan's argument was that he wasn't responsible for the 20 percent because his wife didn't ask for it every year.

(It's now official. Strahan is both ugly AND stoopid.)

Strahan also has been required to pay $311,150 in past child support, and $18,000 per month going forward.

The Post reports that Strahan's net worth is only (only?) $22 million. So, at the end of the day, Mrs. Strahan will have more than two times more money than the guy who earned most if not all of it.

The bigger question, as we see it, is who in the hell advised Strahan to sign the prenup? Our guess is that Strahan opted to go cheap on his legal fees -- and got what he paid for.

But even Lionel Hutz should know that the party making all the money has all the leverage when the time comes to sign an agreement regarding who gets how much of it when the marriage falls apart. The likely guy would have been better off with no written agreement at all.

The ruling is the outcome of a lengthy, acrimonious trial, during which the judge allowed the parties to get into all sorts of irrelevant issues. And that was another legal blunder for Strahan, since by all appearances he came off looking like the bad guy. Indeed, the judge's ruling blasted Strahan for his testifying that he didn't remember the date of his wedding anniversary or his wife's birthday.

The trial and the publicity surrounding it also included a suggestion by Jean Strahan that her ex-husband was engaged in an "alternative lifestyle."

Surely, Strahan will appeal the decision. Before doing so, however, we suggest that someone who earned a law degree from an accredited institution within one of the 50 U.S. states advise him on the meaning and import of the term "post-judgment interest."

As for Mrs. Strahan, her reaction was to exclaim: "I'm going to Disney World!"

Hell, she could probably just buy the place.

This is why rich men don't say I do, because of stuff like this. He owes her 15.3, im guess he haves 30.6 million currently. It all adds up, she's taking half.

No, the article is saying that he's worth 22 mill.

ok...i dont know the situation....i dont know his relationship with his kids and if he has been supporting them financially if at all....

however, if he is already giving 15.3 million to the wife....why does he have to pay all the back childsupport as well as continue paying child support?

why can't the wife be responsible for using part of the 15.3 million towards the care and welfare of the children? IMO, this is one way where I think the family courts have really screwed up....

I don't like Strahan and he is probably scum away from the field....but I don't think he should have to continue paying if he is giving his ex all that money and she has custody of the kids....15.3 million is plenty enough for her to have a great life and the kids too


Because there are childs support laws. Generally speaking, you pay until they are out of college, or no longer dependant. If not attending college, when they are no longer dependant as long as they are under 23. It is a formula (at least in NY). If there is one child, he/she gets 17% per month (that
s 17% of the gross), 2 children 23%, 3 children 27% etc. It's a formula and if you live in NY, it's not up for debate. It is what it is, unless for some reason, the parties agree on a different alternative. If they can't agree, they use the formula.

AS for his prenuptial agreement, that is a common one that he signed. The numbers they are reporting don't make sense and there is far more to it than meets the eye here.

His wife is entitled to 50% of everything they acquired while married - period, prenup or not.
