BuzzOctober 28, 2019

Whenever a high profile divorce is about to happen, the biggest question on everyone’s mind is this: how much money would be involved in the final settlement? While some divorces happen behind closed doors whereby that figure is never made public, for the rich and famous the public finds out about it, one way or another.

After news broke out that Miley Cyrus has split from Liam Hemsworth, now they are most likely to move forward with divorce proceedings. But how much money is likely to be exchanged?

It had seemed all was going well in their relationship after their December wedding, but apparently not!

Apparently, according to reports, Miley was in favor of having a pre-nuptial agreement signed between herself and Liam so that, in the case of a split, the two walked away with an already agreed-upon amount.

The same reports had declared that the value of this prenuptial agreement amounted to somewhere around a staggering $176 million. Although we are not sure whether they eventually signed such an agreement, one thing is for sure: this divorce is probably not going to be a cheap one.

Can Miley And Liam Afford A Divorce?

When Miley was working with Disney on her extremely popular show called Hannah Montana, she was receiving around $15K for every episode, and considering the fact that she made many episodes for the show, she had already become a millionaire even before her music career kicked off.

Billy Ray Cyrus, who is her father and also a famous musician himself, also reportedly has an estimated $20 million to his name. This, combined with Miley’s $160 million of estimated net worth is enough to afford any kind of settlement which may eventually be reached.

However, Liam is not nearly as rich. According to reports, his personal worth stands somewhere around $26 million, so he is not in a position to give much to his ex. But he does have a lot to gain if things go his way during the proceedings, although nothing can be said for sure about that as of now. Most of Liam’s fortune has come from performing as an actor in some very popular films, including The Hunger Games trilogy.

Why Did They Split Up?

It is not a secret that both Miley and Liam have had a rocky relationship over the years. The two had first become acquainted on the set of their 2009 film called The Last Song, after which they have been in an on-and-off relationship until their wedding. But now that they had tied the knot, everyone expected them to have resolved their differences. Unfortunately, that was clearly not the case.

Although it has not even been a year that Miley and Liam have been a married couple, according to their representatives, their marriage is reaching an eventful conclusion. Apparently, Miley has reportedly been spending some quality time with Kaitlynn Carter, who is a reality star on MTV and has recently broken up with husband Brody Jenner, and reportedly the two have been captured sharing a peck on the lips during their recent vacation.
