AMERICAN billionaire John Paulson tied the knot with Jenny Paulson in 2000, marking the beginning of a more than two-decade marriage.
However, the billionaire hedge fund manager and his wife have recently made the decision to part ways, as reported by Forbes.
John and Jenny first crossed paths when John hired Jenny as his assistant, leading to a romantic relationship that culminated in marriage. Despite John’s rise to billionaire status in 2007, Jenny has largely kept her personal life out of the public eye.
According to a source cited by Page Six, Jenny was made aware of John’s divorce filing through media reports. It has also been revealed that John is now dating 35-year-old influencer Alina De Almeida, adding a new chapter to the billionaire’s personal life.
John officially filed for divorce from Jenny in 2021, with reports indicating the absence of a pre-nuptial agreement between the couple. The process of finalizing the divorce is still ongoing as of April 2024, with both parties enlisting the services of prominent New York divorce lawyers.
During their 21-year marriage, John, with an estimated net worth of $3.5 billion, amassed most of his wealth, setting the stage for what many expect to be one of the most expensive divorce settlements of all time.
The couple shares two daughters, Giselle and Danielle Paulson, who are said to be the primary beneficiaries of a $1 billion trust fund. However, things have taken a contentious turn, with Jenny filing a lawsuit against John, alleging that he concealed billions in secret trusts meant for her, their daughters, and other family members.
In response, John’s legal team has accused Jenny of greed and attempting to tap into their daughters’ inheritance. Attorney Jim Smith, representing John, criticized Jenny’s actions as driven by greed and detrimental to the well-being of their daughters.
The unfolding saga between John and Jenny Paulson continues to capture public attention as the high-profile duo navigates the complexities of ending their long-standing marriage.
