(But You Won’t Believe These Celeb Prenup Conditions)
When you fall in love, it feels like the world is on your side. The trees are blossoming, the sun is always shining and the grass seems much greener than before.
When your heart still skips a beat after seeing your significant other after some time, you feel like spending the rest of your life with that person.
It seems as if the end isn’t in sight.
Then before you tie the knot, you meet with a few lawyers and sign a prenuptial agreement (prenup) just in case your feelings change over the eternity together.
According to the Harvard Gazette, about 50 percent of married couples divorce in America.
Of those marrying couples, only five to ten percent sign prenups.
Although celebrities love each other enough to take the plunge, some are aware that the statistics are not in their favor.
Considering this, there are plenty of celebrities who sign prenups just in case their love doesn’t have a Hollywood ending.
While it’s logical for celebrities to think ahead, some prenups will make you hold your money a little tighter.
Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel
Hopefully Timberlake Can’t Stop the Feeling for Biel, because if he says Like I Love You to another person he’ll have to get on his Suit and Tie and head to the bank.
According to Diply, if Timberlake cheats on Biel, the singer must pay $500,000 to the actress. Clearly Biel is Playing for Keeps.
Jay Z and Beyonce
If Beyonce becomes a Single Lady, she’ll be a richer lady too. In their prenup, Jay would give Bey $5 million for each child, $10 million for a new house and $1 million for every year of their marriage after the first two years, per The Knot.
The couple have been through a lot due to Jay Z’s infidelity, but considering they have announced their On the Run II stadium tour this summer, it looks like their love and bank accounts still prevail.
Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman
If the Days Go By and their love dwindles, Keith Urban could see a nice payday. Reported by PopSugar, if the couple were to divorce, Kidman, worth $150 million, would pay Urban $600,000 a year for every year they were married.
However, knowing Urban is a recovering cocaine addict, Kidman agreed not to pay the country star if he relapsed, as claimed by TheTalko.
There’s no Big Little Lie about it, Kidman learned a lot after her first failed marriage with action star Tom Cruise.
Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones
In 1987, Douglas starred in Wall Street and it’s possible that Zeta-Jones took some notes when they signed their prenup.
If the couple splits, Zeta-Jones will earn $2.8 million for every year they were married along with a $5 million bonus if Douglas cheats.
Looks like Zeta-Jones knows that Money Never Sleeps.
Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan
Although Zuckerberg is one of the richest men in the world worth $70 billion, it seems like Chan isn’t in it for the money. Instead of seeking money in their prenup, the couple agreed on the amount of time they would spend together.
Zuckerberg and Chan’s prenup contains a lifestyle clause that guarantees Chan to one date night and at least 100 minutes of alone time with the Facebook CEO per week.
Of course during their intimate time, neither is allowed to log on Facebook.
These examples just brush the surface of celebrity prenups, which means it’s…normal? The term “unconditional love” is wasted statement in the land of the rich and famous, we presume.
