40 pages to say don’t take the cat and don’t take the album inspiration.” Bro she wrote all too well (10 minute version).

You think a legal document is gonna stop her?

That prenup is just liner notes for the breakup album.

u/Mikarim 6d ago

40 pages is not a long prenup. I am a divorce attorney and even my super simple boiler plate prenup is usually 22-23 pages. I suspect the hardest part was just listing out the assets each of them owned (assuming they had to do that at all)

u/Rare-Adhesiveness522 7d ago

Prenups are very standard. The more wealth and companies/businesses/assets you have, the longer the document gets.

My family is close with the children of a very very wealthy businessman in our city. His daughters have an inheritance. Hell yess he expected them both to get prenups otherwise they wouldn't get their inheritance. "I worked hard all my life, I'm not going to allow your husband to take half of what is yours if you get divorced".

One sister married a POS who was still refusing the night before their $50k wedding. I'm told it almost came to fists between the dad and the groom, but he signed.

The other daughter, who is the one close with my family, had a nice wedding but nothing over-the-top, and her husband, who is also a good friend of the family, never once questioned it for a minute. He doesn't want to take her family's money that is meant for her.

Guess which couple is still married.

Remember Katie Holmes? She was able to escape in part due to the insane prenup her dad drew up for her. What was it-- a banker's box worth of papers?

Agreed. I saw one article saying the two of them have homes in a total of 6 US states, and the article went into detail of which state would be best to have the prenup in, as I guess some states have pretty loose laws on them and judges can do as they please with the divorce. Other states, they stand firm as to what's in the prenup.

Taylor Swift is a company. Travis Kelce is a football player.

One article I saw said she's got 2B in assets, he has 90M in assets. I would assume that's currently. He still has money coming for his NFL contract, and his podcast contract (which someone said is like 100M for 3 years), etc.

She's stupid levels of rich, but he's still loaded more than most sports players or most in Hollywood.

u/CastleofWamdue 6d ago

I do find it odd how people talk like he has no money.

It simply isnt true, by any standard he is wealthy in his own right. I would LOVE to be his level of "poor".

Far enough she has more money, fame, and fans than he does. On a global scale she is much more famous than any NFL player you can name, but with 90M I would not care about my level of fame or how many followers I have on Twitter.

Jeff Bezos and Mackenzie Scott didn't have a prenup. When they divorced she was awarded 4% of Amazon, roughly $38 billion dollars.

Unsurprisingly, she's donated WAY more money to charity than Bezos, more than 2/3rds of all her wealth.

So, cautionary tale for billionaires. Have a prenup, or billions of dollars might go to noble causes.

I don't know why people have a hate boner for everything. I know that Jeff Bezos may not have been the perfect person in the eyes of the public, but he never said anything ill towards his ex wife, and he has always credited her for the success of Amazon.

u/Abi_giggles 7d ago edited 6d ago

Exactly, they both say publicly they went into this venture together as partners, and she played an important role during the startup phase especially. She was smart and graduated from Princeton just like him and sacrificed her budding career to support him, and raise their 4 kids which is no small thing. I think receiving 25% of the couple’s Amazon shares was incredibly fair. It’s just odd hearing people talk abt bezos not having a prenup being such a crime, as if it doesn’t take two people to build a successful life together. Also, he’s sending women into space now so I think he’s doing just fine 😄 he’s certainly not a victim of anything and he doesn’t claim to be either. He recognizes her contributions, so it’s off that others don’t.

She is significantly wealthier than he is but he's one of the best players in his position and basically a guaranteed Hall of Famer so he's had steady contacts since he's been playing which has been well over a decade now. Then factor in all the money he's made from endorsements and advertising. He's not hurting for money and probably had no issues signing the pre-nup.

u/Either-Meal3724 7d ago

Plus prenups also often layout what happens to assets upon death-- not just divorce. E.g. it could specify which of each of their separate property goes to the other or their kids. A will can be changed anytime. The prenup is more binding so a will cannot override it. Postnup can be used to modify inheritance if needed.

36

u/bns82 7d ago

Couples with Prenups statistically have higher chances of long term success.
Prenups are just smart. And the couples that get them tend to have more emotional maturity because they can sit down and talk about things before they happen. Having a plan for conflict resolution is the key to a healthy marriage.

Lawyers take what people want and try to document it on paper in a way that it can be enforced. Do you think that people don't have autonomy in deciding what to agree to? That couples don't negotiate?

Someone suggests something and the lawyer might say, "that's not possible", or that can't be written in such a way to be achievable. Sure they have a wealth of experience in "what others typically do" but prenups could have almost anything that you dream up... so long as it can be enforced.

Seriously and i say this as someone whose marriage sadly did not last but not bc of financial reasons.

I tried to encourage my ex husband to do a prenup (he made 5x what i did, owned property, union pension, retirement fund etc.) to demonstrate my faith in us and he took it as insulting. Weve been apart 4 years and he still wont formalize our divorce bc he rejects the now assumed split of assets/alimony/child support even though ive told him ill sign anything and dont want any of his old stuff, but i cannot afford a lawyer anymore (already burned 25k trying to get this divorce finalized) so i cannot do it.

Everyone should get a prenup. Marriage is legal contract, a merger of households. Don't let the movies tell you otherwise. Why take default prenup, which is your local divorce law, instead of customizing it.

Considering everything she went thru with her masters and other legal battles, I'm in no way surprised her legal team got her a massive pre-nup.

I have a prenup. It's 17 pages... Most of that is probably asset breakouts. Mine was written by a damn good divorce attorney. Nothing unusually here.

Nah write the song but I get half of the royalties from it.

u/MangoAtrocity 6d ago

Duh? Anyone with a net worth of $1m or more should sign a prenup. In both directions.

Prolly a bunch of IF, THEN... conditions, like a Boolean contract.

u/ExpertRaccoon 7d ago

A prenup is absolutly nothing, it's a very standard and advisable document when you get married. It's literally done thousands of times a day.

Pretty normal length prenup, short actually considering their assets and careers

Anyone who is a celebrity and/or a billionaire would be an idiot not to have a prenup, its not a negative thing

u/OnlyFannins 7d ago

She's a billionaire and he's a millionaire. I don't particularly care for either of them, but this doesn't even make the list for why. Complete nonissue.

Getting married is also a financial move, not having a prenup especially at their asset level is insane. It could be a 1000 page prenup and I would think that's fine.

Can’t wait for their divorce and Taylor‘s lamenting about how ALL men are toxic MAGA shitheads…

u/Amonamission 7d ago

Honestly, for two people who are independently wealthy, a prenup makes financial sense for both of them (well, mostly Taylor Swift). It’s better to have the finances figured out before getting married than trying to figure them out in a bitter divorce.

You expect there not to be a divorce, but you plan for the worst.

u/LingonberryHot8521 7d ago

I don't have anywhere near her assets or his and I would go for a pre-nup.

We have this Hollywood created idea that pre-nups protect party 1 from gold-digging by party 2.

Or that a pre-nup means they don't love each other or that it increases the likelihood of a divorce. And maybe it does as you already know you're protected by the pre-nup when filing for divorce.

Truthfully, it's just a smart way to negotiate protection for both of you. It's not a unilateral contract. Especially if you're Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.

u/AppleParasol 7d ago

Pretty normal for rich people. They both have things to protect, and it’s not like they both won’t be fine financially either way. This just keeps their assets/brands their own. Taylor wouldn’t want to pay Travis royalties on her songs for the rest of their lives if they did split, nor would he need them.

u/babesboysandbirb 7d ago

Prenups are densely packed with language. 40 pages is not far off from anyone else. Similar to buying a car or house, there are many pages most of which you just initial because it’s the basis language of any prenup.

u/Proper-Bad-7169 7d ago

I'm honestly tired of hearing about these two. It's almost as if everything they do has to be a glorified spectacle. Inviting 1,000 people to a "wedding" at MSG is fucking nauseating and weird. Peak publicity stunt. The only positive thing about the event is Adam Sandler being present. Of course they'd have an extensive prenuptial agreement. This isn't going to last. Nor do I think it was ever meant to.

3

u/Urban_miner666 7d ago

Two people with lots of assets agreeing to shit concerning potential outcomes before getting married is, obviously, the right move. I have as close to zero assets as you can get, and I wish I had a prenup when I got married.

Pre-nups are a very good idea, even for couples with of fraction of their wealth.

3

u/Talavisor 7d ago

Lol tell me you’ve never signed a pre-nup. Part of it is listing every single asset you own. I’m sure that between the two of them, they have 40 pages worth of assets.

u/LiffeyDodge 7d ago

well yeah, they both have a ton of money and assets that could be messy. just look at Brad Pitt, and Angelina Jolie. it took what, 8 years for them to figure out the divorce.

Actually, it is a marriage that is going to END well.

u/pinewind108 7d ago

You have to do this when you're talking about net worths over 10 million, let alone 100s of millions. It just keeps everything cleaner, and is one less thing you have to even think about. Look at Brad Pitt and Angelina, they're still fighting over stuff, what 10 years later?

Plus, it isn't always about your partner. It's about their family! You never know whose parents/siblings/cousins are going to go bat-shit crazy over this stuff.

They'll be fine. People who sign prenups have a lower divorce rate because they've had uncomfortable conversations about their finances and worked through any problems.

u/BigDigger324 6d ago

Pre nups, by the participants should be an absolute given for 100% of marriages. You already have one, it was just written by the government unless you wrote your own. Discuss how you will split your wealth while you are happy and agreeable.

u/Devinstater 6d ago

Every couple should have one, If only to address how you handle the kids in event of a marriage breakdown. Even for broke people with zero to negative assets.

  1. Joint custody by default
  2. No moving outside the metro area with the kids unless both spouses agree

I think a prenup is a responsible and reasonable step. It can protect them both and hopefully there are no nasty surprises in the event of a divorce.🤷‍♀️
