  • Melanie Griffith Gets $780K Per Year In Antonio Banderas Divorce

    Melanie Griffith is officially divorced from Antonio Banderas.

    From the looks of things, Melanie Griffith can wipe her tears with hundred dollar bills, if she’d like.

    Melanie Griffith stands to make $65K each month from her estranged husband, which works out to an astounding $780K each year until she remarries or one of them kicks the bucket.

    If I were Melanie Griffith, I believe it would be the single life for me.

    That’s not all Melanie Griffith stands to gain in the divorce.

    She also gets the couple’s Aspen, Colorado home, half of all profits, royalties and residuals Banderas earned from 2004-2014 and half of the proceeds from the sale of their LA digs.

    Not too bad of a deal for Melanie Griffith. Of course she did lose her love and husband of two decades.

    Back in June of 2014, Melanie Griffith and Antonio Banderas announced that their long-lived marriage had died.

    The divorce proceedings likely took so long because the couple had an extensive list of properties to divvy up.

    In the 2014 announcement they wrote, “We have thoughtfully and consensually decided to finalize our almost twenty years marriage in a loving and friendly manner honoring and respecting each other, our family and friends and the beautiful time we have spent together – Melanie & Antonio.”

    Melanie Griffith and Antonio Banderas have a 19-year-old daughter, Stella.

    This is the fourth marriage to fall apart for Melanie Griffith.

    Do you think Melanie Griffith will stay single for a while or do you think she’ll get back on the proverbial horse?

  • Melanie Griffith, Antonio Banderas Finalize Divorce After 18 Years of Marriage

    Melanie Griffith and Antonio Banderas have finalized their divorce after 18 years of marriage.

    According to Page Six, a Los Angeles judge finalized the actors’ divorce on Friday, which was released on Tuesday, finalizing the end of the couple’s 18-year marriage.

    Griffith and Banderas met on the set of the 1995 romantic comedy Two Much. They later worked together in the 1999 film Crazy in Alabama, which was directed by Banderas.

    According to E! Online, the divorce judgment divides the actors’ share of profits from numerous films, including several movies in the Shrek franchise. Banderas must also pay Griffin $65,000 per month in spousal support, which amounts to $780,000 per year in spousal support until Griffin remarries or either party dies.

    The couple announced plans to divorce in June 2014, saying in a joint statement: “”We have thoughtfully and consensually decided to finalize our almost twenty years marriage in a loving and friendly manner honoring and respecting each other, our family and friends and the beautiful time we have spent together – Melanie & Antonio”

    Since then Banderas has said that he hopes the couple will remain close despite the breakup.

    “I want — and I think she does, too — to maintain a relationship because we have spent many years together,” Banderas, who has an 18-year-old daughter with Griffith, said in an interview earlier in the year. “I would like to maintain a relationship, and it is happening, I speak with her every other day.”

    The marriage was Griffith’s fourth and Banderas’ second.
