William Shatner finalizes divorce from fourth wife, will keep majority of $100 million fortune: report
William Shatner has finalized his divorce from his fourth wife, Elizabeth, according to a new report.
William Shatner, 88, has finalized his divorce from his fourth wife, Elizabeth Martin, after nearly 19 years of marriage.
Going into the legal proceedings, the legendary actor, who played Captain Kirk on Star Trek, had a net worth of over $100 million.
In the end, the actor was able to keep the bulk of his fortune because he had an iron-clad pre-nuptial agreement in place before they were married in 2001.
In fact, all the money he made from his Star Trek days, including royalties and businesses surrounding the show, were off-limits, according to documents obtained by The Daily Mail
The main issue heading into negotiations was how to split up the money he earned from other projects over the last two decades the former couple were together.
Shatner filed for divorce last December but court documents show that they had separated in February 2019.
Despite the split, the actor has been seen still wearing his wedding ring a number of times over that time, and as recent as a couple of weeks ago.
Shatner’s first marriage to Gloria Rand (1956-1969) produced his three daughters: Leslie, 61, Lisabeth, 58, and Melanie, 55.
He was also married to Marcy Lafferty (1973-1996) and Nerine Kidd (1997-1999).
This is Martin’s second divorce. Her first husband was Michael Glenn Martin, 88.
Making his television debut way back in 1954, the Canadian native starred in dozens of TV series and films over seven decades, including TJ Hooker (1982-1986), Boston Legal (2004-2008) and Better Late Than Never (2016 -2017).
You see this is the difference between a Chad like Captain Kirk (who's also a /tv/ poster) and a cuck like Jeff Bezos. Both have a lot of money but only one of them needs to pay out to the foid.
