The hottest celebrity-divorce trend is bifurcation. The mid-split split. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt did it, with both declared legally single even as their divorce creeps into its fourth year. Camille and Kelsey Grammer did it, and Kelsey was remarried within the year. And Ewan McGregor and his wife of 22 years, Eve Mavrakis, just did it in 2019, before finalizing their divorce on Thursday. Being declared unmarried in the eyes of the state before signing the final divorce papers is the hottest move in Hollywood.
The court must not have kept the details of McGregor and Mavrakis’s proceedings under lock and key, as Pitt and Jolie have done, because People obtained the settlement. It’s pretty revealing: She made out okay with $14,934 per month in child support for their youngest child, Anouk, the only one of the four who is under 18. Mavrakis also gets generous spousal support to the tune of $35,868 each month.
McGregor and Mavrakis, who’s a French-born production designer, separated in 2017, so anything McGregor made after that was not subject to the division of assets. For some reason, though, the judge designated his 2018 Disney film, Christopher Robin, for which he earned $3,000,000, community property—meaning that Mavrakis gets a cut there too.
