Musician Neil Diamond has known success since the 60s with his own brand of easy listening classics. When he met the woman who would share his life with for 25 years, he was already married to wife number one.

Following rumours of extramarital activities on Diamond's part, she filed for divorce citing the popular "irreconcilable differences." The singer claims he cheerfully gave her the money (she's "worth every penny") and that she deserved it for having bore him wonderful children.
