Producer Brian Grazer's Divorce Final

TV and film uber-producer Brian Grazer (I’d list his work here but the list is ridiculous) has finalized his divorce from Gigi Levangie, his wife of 11 years. Levangie wrote The Starter Wife, a book (now television series) about a writer who gets dumped by her Hollywood film studio head husband just shy of their 10 year anniversary. Hmm.

As part of the settlement, Levangie will reportedly receive a lump sum payment of $4.5 million as well as $8.75 million to pay the remaining balance of a mortgage on a piece of property that is titled in her name. She allegedly asked for nearly $1 million a month in child support and spousal support but instead receive $40,000 a month in child support for their two children, sons ages 10 and 5. No word on the spousal support or other property distribution although it’s my understanding that there was a solid prenuptial agreement in place to protect Grazer’s assets.

Grazer will also pay Levangie’s attorneys’ fees of $488,977. He was given just over a week to make the payments.

Levangie is Grazer’s third wife – he was married for seven years in the ’70s; from 1982 to 1992 to his second wife and then from 1997 until now to Levangie. Grazer originally filed for legal separation from Levangie back in 2006 but withdrew those papers. He ultimately filed for divorce in 2007. He was represented by Hollywood divorce attorney Robert Kaufman.
