Gay rumors, pren-up haunt Star‘s ex-hubby Big Al.
BUT No one picks Star Jones‘ pocket!
The former co-host of The View protected her assets with an iron-clad prenup before she married banker Al Reynolds in November 2004 – and it paid off!
The pre-nup reportedly said that if the legal eagle’s marriage ended before hitting the five-year mark, Al – who’s been dogged by rumors he’s gay – would receive none of her $10 million fortune.
And despite an agreement to keep details of their split private, Al, 38, blabbed on three YouTube video interviews. The ENQUIRER discovered that Star eventually agreed to a small payoff.
Los Angeles-based matrimonial attorney Thomas L. Simpson – who has handled the divorce case of Desperate Housewives star Doug Savant and other celebs – says airing dirty laundry is a bad idea.
"Other than venting one’s anger, there’s very little to be gained, but a lot to lose," he said.
Attorney Reisman added: "This marriage was crazy to begin with. If the rumors that Al is gay are true – which I know he’s denied – was it a marriage of convenience?
"The key here is the iron-clad pre-nup, and that protected her assets."
