Chuck Lorre agrees to pay ex-wife Arielle $5M in divorce settlement, more than their 'prenup' agreement
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Chuck Lorre has finally settled his divorce with ex-wife Arielle Lorre.
The creator of hit TV series such as ‘Big Bang Theory’ and ‘Two and a Half Men’ separated from his Instagram influencer wife in 2022 and, as per TMZ, both parties agreed on their divorce terms last week.
How much is Chuck Lorre paying Arielle?
Chuck will pay $5M in settlement to Arielle and will keep the primary custody of their shared dog Harvey. As per court documents, Arielle is granted ‘liberal visitation’ of the dog.
According to close sources, he’s paying more than the amount mentioned in their ‘prenup.’ The two tied the knot in October 2018 and their separation comes over ‘irreconcilable differences.’
They jointly issued a statement via People. "It is with mutual consideration and respect that we have decided to separate. Our plan is to move forward in different directions but with great love, admiration and gratitude for the time we shared," it said.
The statement added, "We ask that you respect our privacy during this difficult time. Thank you for your support."
