CLEESE GETS DIVORCE DISCOUNT
Actor JOHN CLEESE has won a court battle to get his $1.8 million (£1.3 million)-a-year divorce pay-out to his ex-wife halved.
The Monty Python star had hit out at the original settlement last May (08) with third wife Alyce Faye Eichelberger, following their split after 16 years of marriage.
And a U.S. judge agrees with the star - cutting Cleese’s monthly payments to Eichelberger from $153,000 (£106,000) to $82,000 (£57,000).
A source tells British newspaper The Daily Mail, "The settlement has been cut back because it was unrealistic. The lawyers had been wrangling for some time. They are still fighting it out, but I think a final decision is expected in the next two weeks."
