One of the world's richest men has paid his ex-wife an incredible $1billion in a divorce settlement - after she left him for a woman.
Billionaire hedge fund heavyweight Israel 'Izzy' Englander, 74, has reportedly agreed to pay his ex-wife Caryl upwards of $1billion to quietly settle a divorce that reportedly scandalised the high society of Manhattan, New York.
In an astonishing turn of events, Millennium Management co-founder Mr Englander saw his 69-year-old ex-wife walk out of his life and file a startling civil lawsuit, after more than 40 years of marriage.
