14 DAY TRIAL // It was previously reported that Kim Kardashian was going to make one million dollars for every year she's married to Kanye West in the event of a divorce, according to leaked details from the prenup, but now it appears that there is a cap on her earned funds which has been set at the ten million mark.
In other words, Kim will make the rumored one million a year after she marries Kanye, but she will not make over ten million in all, according to a top divorce lawyer contacted by Hollywoodlife. That means that Kanye's bulk of the estate will be safe and sound in case of a divorce.
At the moment, reality TV star Kim Kardashian, one of the most prominent members of the Kardashian clan, is worth about forty million dollars, as opposed to Kanye, who is closer to the one hundred million dollar mark. That means that Kanye has over twice as much as his famous fiancée in terms of earnings and estate.
Kanye is said to be very happy with the terms of the prenup, which might be an indication he's aware of the fact that he will remain largely untouched in the case of a divorce. The divorce lawyer seems to think that a number closer to his actual earnings would have to be double the initial sum, that is two millions for every year of marriage, capped at twenty million instead of ten.
But don't go thinking that the business-savvy Kim is getting into this marriage blindly. She knows full well how to handle her finances since, let's be honest, this isn't the first time she's walked down the aisle.
According to the original prenup, Kim will get to keep any and all gifts she's received from Kanye along the years, and we all know those are not trivial for the usually flamboyant rapper, as well as ownership of the house in Bel Air, which is also said to be worth a pretty penny.
Not to mention the fact that Kim is listed as the beneficiary of one of Kanye's life insurance policies, which is currently valued at twenty millions dollars. All in all, not a bad deal for her, but not really fair when you take into consideration the entire West fortune.
Kanye is not only a successful musician but also an artist and a fashion designer, his projects selling really well in whichever enterprise he sets up, proving that he's one of the more bankable names in the industry and ensuring that any product he puts him name on sells very well.
