Multibillion-dollar divorce is settled

A feuding couple has reached the most expensive divorce settlement in history, reports the Daily Mail.

Billionaire Dmitry Ryboloblev and his ex-wife, Elena, have been contesting the terms of their divorce for eight years. Elena got the equivalent of $5.86 billion after they reached a settlement this week.

Forbes ranks Dmitry as the 165^th richest man in the world. He is the chairman and majority shareholder of Uralkai, a Russian fertilizer company, the Daily Mail says. The settlement is about half his wealth.
