Mary-Kate Olsen and Olivier Sarkozy’s Divorce Is Literally the Messiest Thing Ever

From Cosmopolitan

  • Mary-Kate Olsen and Olivier Sarkozy are getting divorced after marrying in November 2015.

  • Mary-Kate has an ironclad prenup, and psst: She and Ashley Olsen are worth $500 million.


Welp, looks like another celebrity divorce is going down right in the middle of quarantine. Yesterday, news broke that Mary-Kate Olsen and her husband, Pierre Olivier Sarkozy, are splitting up, and apparently, Mary-Kate’s prenup is “ironclad.”

A source tells Us Weekly that “her business interests and fortune are protected,” which includes fashion line The Row and the label Elizabeth and James. Plus, let’s not forget all the money she made from being a child star. All told, apparently, Mary-Kate and her sister Ashley Olsen have an estimated net worth of $500 million between them, so, yeah…obviously, she had a prenup.

Meanwhile, TMZ reports that this divorce is already getting extremely messy. Apparently, Olivier gave Mary-Kate until May 18 to get all her stuff out of their New York City apartment, and now she’s out here claiming that he terminated their lease without telling her.

The actress/designer says she can’t meet the deadline to remove her belongings due to the fact that we’re literally in the middle of a global pandemic (understandable), so she’s filed an emergency divorce petition in the hopes of protecting her property until May 30. She’s also requesting that her prenup be enforced (also understandable).

In conclusion: le yikes.
