			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/mel-roybn-lead.jpg"><img src="http://www.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/mel-roybn-lead.jpg" alt="mel-roybn-lead" title="mel-roybn-lead" width="625" height="534" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-27673" /></a><br />
So the news just broke that the wife of <strong>Mel Gibson</strong> is filing for divorce. Yawn. Then we found out the settlement gwap: <strong>$500 million</strong> plus half of the residual checks from <strong><em>Lethal Weapon</em></strong> and <strong><em>Braveheart</em></strong>. To paraphrase one of Mad Max&#8217;s recent flicks: Jesus-effing-Christ! Like Hovi said: Men lie, women lie, numbers don&#8217;t.</p>
<p>Mel is taking a major L, but this isn&#8217;t the first time divorce has separated famous men from their millions. Complex takes a look back at some <strong>celebrity wives who laughed straight to the bank</strong>&#8230;ha ha ha ha!<br />

		<description><![CDATA[Guy Ritchie's getting his post-Madonna dough in order. But how does he stack up to other men who have profited from marital misery?]]></description>

It&#8217;s a not-totally-unhappy day for <strong>Guy Ritchie</strong>; he&#8217;s reportedly <a href="http://hateables.com/2008/12/08/guy-ritchie-just-got-64-million-of-madonna-money/" target="_blank">agreed</a> to a lump-sum $64 million payoff in order to avoid protracted divorce bickering with <strong>Madonna</strong>. And sure, it was love once upon a time, but now he&#8217;s rocking a <a href="http://perezhilton.com/2008-12-03-guy-is-single-and-splendid" target="_blank">smile</a> bigger than his cumulative box-office take. He&#8217;s not the only guy who stands to leave a bad relationship with fat pockets, though&#8211;so we rounded up 5 of the greatest or (would-be greatest) gold-diggers of all time. Get yourn, Bjorn!</p>
<p><span id="more-20349"></span></p>
<p><strong>5. <u>AL REYNOLDS </u></strong><br />
<img src='http://www.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/reynolds.jpg' alt='reynolds' /><br />
<strong>&bull;  Target:</strong> <em>View</em> host, gastric-bypass denier and self-delusional blowhard Star Jones<br />
Despite a pre-nuptial agreement, this fool proposed at the NBA All-Star Game, then spent the three years of their <a href="http://marriage.about.com/od/entertainmen1/p/starjones.htm" target="_blank">horridly publicized</a> marriage on the DL (no Hughley). Also continues to <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9wSkb1_eOw" target="_blank">deny</a> that he&#8217;s <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNx4x41b1Ck" target="_blank">super, thanks for asking</a>.<br />
<font size ="4"> &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;</font></p>
<p><strong>4.  <u>MARK HARRIS </u> </strong><br />
<img src='http://www.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/allen.jpg' alt='harris' /><br />
<strong>&bull;  Target:</strong> Martha Raye, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rd5gm-xa710" target="_blank">denture wearer</a><br />
Who? Oh, you know, just another example of the age-old story:  boy meets boy, boy spends life as a gay man, then boy marries a 75-year-old woman with Alzheimer&#8217;s who&#8217;s 35 years older than him (a month after meeting her), boy fights the woman&#8217;s daughter to block her from the estate, boy eventually inherits $4 million when the woman dies a double amputee. It&#8217;s the stuff dreams are made of!<br />
<font size ="4"> &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;</font></p>
<p><strong>3. <u>STEDMAN GRAHAM </u> </strong><br />
<img src='http://www.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/stedman.jpg' alt='stedman' /><br />
<strong>&bull;  Target:</strong></strong> Jizzillionaire Oprah Winfrey (seriously, we&#8217;d nut if we had that much money)<br />
Thought you were about to cake off, huh? Oprah&#8217;s too smart for that, Stedman! No marriage for you! Now go change your name, you sound like an Austrian dessert.<br />
<font size ="4"> &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;</font></p>
<p><strong>2. <u> KEVIN FEDERLINE </u> </strong><br />
<img src='http://www.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/kfed.jpg' alt='federline' /><br />
<strong>&bull;  Target:</strong></strong> Hot teen, not-so-hot twentysomething, and nonshaver <strong>Britney Spears</strong><br />
If you can actually convince a senseless multimillionaire to marry your unemployed ass, and then let you wear a sweatsuit that says &#8220;PIMP DADDY&#8221; to the wedding party, then we can&#8217;t even hate. Popozao, baby.<br />
<font size ="4"> &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;</font></p>
<p><strong>1. <u>GUY RITCHIE</u> </strong><br />
<img src='http://www.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/ritchie.jpg' alt='ritchie' /><br />
<strong>&bull;  Target:</strong></strong> Human-tarantula hybrid, scourge of insular cultures, and <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIxk2Oz2TbI" target="_blank">soy-latte drinker</a> <strong>Madonna</strong><br />
She shit on your movies and stepped out with the most annoying baseball player since Crash Davis. We&#8217;ve got your back, homie; now go get that a milli a milli a mlli (repeat 61 more times).</p>
