Georgina Chapman Net Worth Revealed After Harvey Weinstein Split
Marchesa designer Georgina Chapman is divorcing Harvey Weinstein after the sexual assault allegations against him came to light. Even if Chapman signed a prenuptial agreement with the Hollywood executive, she will likely remain a millionaire.
That’s because Chapman has an estimated net worth of $20 million, according to The Richest.
There’s a 98 percent chance that Chapman and Weinstein have a pre-nup, Certified Family Law Specialist Steve Mindel told E! Online Wednesday.
“Obviously she's a pretty successful woman in her own right and he is extremely successful so you would think they both have business managers and handlers. You would anticipate that the asset division will be managed by the business managers or asset managers,” he said. “You would anticipate that being married previously and it’s a relatively short marriage, there would have been a premarital agreement at the time they married. The primary reason being that he's creating a lot of intellectual property and he would want to have control over that.”
Mindel added: “The biggest nightmare for him would be to get a divorce and he doesn't have control over his intellectual property, meaning she can come to all the business meetings when something is sold.”
Chapman and Weinstein were married for 10 years, but she left him for his “unforgivable” actions.
“My heart breaks for all the women who have suffered tremendous pain because of these unforgivable actions. I have chosen to leave my husband,” she said in a statement to People Magazine Tuesday. “Caring for my young children is my first priority and I ask the media for privacy at this time.”
Weinstein addressed his separation from Chapman in a statement of his own the following day. “Over the last week, there has been a lot of pain for my family that I take responsibility for. I sat down with my wife Georgina, who I love more than anything, and we discussed what was best for our family,” he started.
“We discussed the possibility of a separation and I encouraged her to do what was in her heart. In the end, she made the decision to separate,” Weinstein said. “I understand, I love her and I love our children and hopefully, when I am better, I will be in their lives again. I support her decision, I am in counseling and perhaps, when I am better, we can rebuild.”
Chapman and Weinstein share two children together.
