After a Massive $8 Million Divorce Settlement, Chris Evert’s Ex-husband Delivered a Poignant Family Statement in 2007 – ‘Would Have Paid Twice’
Chris Evert, the American tennis veteran, has had a very successful tennis career. While on the court, she made the right decisions almost every time, as she ended her glorious career with 18 Grand Slam titles. However, in contrast, her personal life witnessed some rough patches. She went through three failed marriages, and in the end, decided to be on her own, supporting her three sons.
One of her decisions in her personal life that shocked most of her fans was her divorce with Andy Mill. She walked out of an 18-year-long marriage to be with Mill’s best friend, Greg Norman. The step shattered their family of five and the man who had a happy family lost everything. Here’s what he said after Evert settled her divorce with him.
Mill revealed his feelings after his divorce with Chris Evert
The heartbroken former Alpine ski racer, who received millions in settlement, opened up about his divorce in 2007. While speaking about the 18-time Grand Slam champion’s decision, he said, “Regarding the money and the settlement, I would have paid twice that to keep my family in place.”
Thereafter, he added, “My main concern is just trying to get everything on level ground as far as my family is concerned. The most important thing for me is my family and my kids, and just trying to keep them grounded.”
As part of the settlement, Evert gave Mill cash and securities worth 8.7 million dollar and their 5 million dollar holiday home in the ritzy Colorado snow resort town of Aspen. However, the custody of their children went to Evert. Though Mill was granted visitation rights, he lost the privilege of seeing his sons Alexander, Nicholas and Colton every day.
