3. Bernie Ecclestone –  Slavica Ecclestone  (née Radic )

Settlement: $1.2 billion

When Bernie Ecclestone met Slavica Radic, Armani’s model from Croatia and 28 years his junior he was swept off his feet. Bernie allegedly completely lost his head over 6 feet 2 inches beauty and sparred no effort in trying to get her attention and didn’t let little things like age or height difference (Bernie is a foot shorter than Slavica) or the fact that they didn’t speak common language (she spoke Croatian and Italian and Bernie only English) stand in his way. It took him three years, but he managed to win her over and the couple married in 1985. 23 years later, he lost something else over her, namely $1.2 billion in a divorce settlement.
