Los Angeles, December 9 (EFE).- Spanish actor Antonio Banderas will pay his ex-wife, fellow actress Melanie Griffith, $65,000 a month in alimony as part of their divorce settlement, celebrity news website TMZ reported Wednesday.
Banderas and Griffith separated in June 2014 after 18 years of marriage, citing “irreconcilable differences.”
The settlement covers two different time periods: the period from 1996 to 2004, when the marriage was subject to a separation of assets, and the period from 2004, when the couple signed a “postnuptial (agreement)” that year that changed their financial relationship, TMZ reported.
Banderas is allowed to keep all the money he earned from films such as “The Mask of Zorro” (1998) and “Spy Kids” (2001) until 2004. After that date, the two actors share their earnings from their various films and other projects.
Banderas, 55, will pay Griffith $65,000 a month. Griffith will also keep the house they share in Aspen, Colorado, TMZ reported, adding that it had been given access to divorce documents.
On the other hand, the mansion that the couple owned in Los Angeles was sold and the proceeds from the sale were divided between the two.
In addition, Griffith will keep his painting “The Painter and His Model” by Pablo Picasso, while Banderas will keep sketches by the Spanish artist and Mexican muralist Diego Rivera. EFE
