Kelsey Grammer may owe wife Camille $50 million in divorce

When her divorce from actor Kelsey Grammer is complete, "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Camille Grammer might be able to buy up the Hills and then some, a new report suggests.

The reality-TV blond might be looking at around $50 million — half of the roughly $100 million-plus TMZ sources say the couple built up over 13 years of marriage. With no prenup in place, it could be split down the middle.

"They made a lot of smart decisions," one source alleged. "They were really a good team,"

That kind of money would likely keep Camille well within the lifestyle she's become accustomed to, pizza ovens and screaming dinner parties included.

Most of the Grammers' wealth is reportedly in real estate, which the source largely credits Camille for pioneering, noting that "Cheers" brings in minor dough. "Frasier," on the other hand, is characterized as "a cash register." 

Kelsey, meanwhile, told People that he and Kayte Walsh, the future Mrs. Grammer No. 4, are already engaged "because we are in love and see no reason to postpone our happiness any longer."

Do we hear echoes of the Tiger Woods-Elin Nordegren divorce settlement rumors in all this math? What do you think of this dizzying amount?

sounds about right in cali 1/2 plus what the kids need at their lifestyle billed etc. Millions do not stretch as far as they used to so who knows hope she is wise she could go be in a soap opera they need drama for their bad ratings but i would not watch

[Smoochie]

Puke!

Camille should get 50% of profits from real estate investments, not 50% of the real estate's value, the initial investment capital was aquired by Kelsey before they were married, big difference. She's a horrible person who seems to be an alien to her own children, has paid for "friends" and an artificial body, face and personality...... if money makes her so happy, well let her choke on it.

[dee gee]

kyle was right.....

Normally, I'd feel sorry for a woman whose husband cheated on her but Camille is so "morally bankrupt" (what she calls Kyle) that I almost feel like its Karma.

of course , heaven forbid women have to learn to support themselves...

She is so ridiculous. Bad acting and all. And if Hollywood gave awards for whining, she'd have her grubby little hands around one now!

If he's gonna owe his current wife a sum of money, like $50 Million, how does this 'Reckon' as any divorce settlement. It seems that this would be simply a division of 'Joint Assets', to which they have both Contributed.

There still could be 'Alimony' to be considered after such a division of 'Assets'.

But, many of the 'Old' type Hollywood songs come to mind. Not quoting the 'Titles', but "Money can't buy love", & Blah, Blah, Blah, & so-on, & so forth.

So if God asks Kelsey to come 'forth', he's probably gonna come 'fifth'. If his new wife notes the 'Demotion', she may just as soon decide to Divorce Him, & Sue for 50% of what's left.

Her's where the 'Economists' would point-out, is called the Law of 'Diminishing Returns'.

So all of this could be used in a 'Post-Graduate' Economics Course.

levi, she did support herself -- by making investments that are paying off for her now.

The Internet has turned into that hateful small-minded little village that people used to move to the Big City to escape.

There's no escape from the small minds and hateful gossips now!

This woman (Camille) is a hideous excuse for a woman, much less a mother and wife. She is obviously having an affair (probably one of many) with her "friend's" husband. You'd have to be blind as a bat to not see that one! Kelsey is wrong to get engaged so publicly like this and for finding someone before the divorce is final, but I so could see this Camille person pushing him way over the edge. She makes me ill.

Kelsey should take the children as part of the divorce. Camille will leave all kinds of emotional scares of the children she is really sick. I hope Kelsey will do the right thing by the children because he really knows what a monster Camille is, that exactly why he left her.

What a helpless/hopeless skank. No wonder Kelsey was screwing around...

[susan]

While I find Camille to be as immoral as Kelsey...she should get what's coming to her. Look, you cannot be and idiot and get done what she's gotten done...Lord if she didn't have four nannies can you imagine the stress her life would have....NOT!!!! Give me a break, they both deserve everything they get...but I pray someone with half a brain will look after her children.
