Sumner Redstone, 85, files for divorce! Why bother?
First, Sumner Redstone ditched couch-jumper Tom Cruise.
Now he's dumping his wife of five years.
TMZ has obtained divorce docs filed yesterday that say Redstone, the 85-year-old CEO of Viacom, has asked for a divorce from 46-year-old Paula Fortunato.
It's only his second marriage. And, according to Forbes, before the economic collapse, Redstone's net worth was roughly $9 billion.
And he only divorced his first wife four years ago! Word is that he has asked Paula to leave the house and she won't. Something about that iron-clad pre-nup that she only gets $1 million if they split. Still, not bad for only five years work.
Oh, did I mention that Redstone cites "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the split?
What, like she didn't make him the kind of porridge he liked? Or she hated finding dentures in a glass by the bed?
He's 85, for crying out loud. Who's next? Who would want to marry an 85-year-old billionaire?
Oh, right. Every opportunistic woman in Hollywood.
