Neil Diamond & Marcia Murphey – Settlement: Reported $150 Million
Neil Diamond is one of the highest-selling musicians of all time, with over 100 million of his records sold. This might explain why he had to part with so much from his split with his ex-wife Marcia Murphey. She is a former TV producer who met Diamond while she was still a production assistant.
Although the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer was still married to his first wife when he met Murphey, they started a relationship that led to their marriage in 1969. Their divorce in 1996 meant Diamond had to release half of his income, about $150 million at the time to his second ex-wife. In 2020, he appeared as himself on “Celebrity Page.”
