Matt Lauer’s Disastrous Divorce Settlement

Matt Lauer is facing financial ruin as his furious, humiliated wife, Annette Roque, plots the ultimate revenge — putting the disgraced "Today" host in the poorhouse!

Snitches told The National ENQUIRER that the mom of Matt’s three kids is working up a divorce scheme to take 90 percent of his whopping $80 million fortune instead of the normal 50/50 split. “She’s decided to take him to the cleaners,” said a spy.

“Annette figures it’s the least she deserves after everything he’s put her through.” If she gets the big payday, Matt will be left with $8 million. But that won’t go far — since he’s already been axed from his $28-million-a-year job.

He’s also facing possible big-bucks lawsuits from women he allegedly chased on the "Today" show set. Now sources said the Dutch doll has her husband over a barrel!

“Annette has enough dirt to hang him ten times over,” says the mole. “His worst nightmare would be that she testifies for his accusers. He has to do what it takes — and if that means a 90-percent payoff — he only has his disgusting behavior to blame.”
