They ended their relationship in 2017. Since they were never married, they didn't have to go through a formal divorce process or split their assets. They did put their Beverly Hills home for sale at $13 million because they decided they would live separately. Fonda is still cast to appear in "Grace and Frankie" until at least 2022.

As a result, when the couple separated in 1999, Hall was not entitled to any of Jagger's assets. The court declared that they were never officially married in the first place, so their separation couldn't be treated as a proper formal divorce. As per the Guardian, Hall was reportedly looking for a settlement of $30 million. In 2021, he appeared in the short "The Rolling Stones: Living in the Heart of Love."

Madonna & Guy Ritchie – Settlement: Reported $92 Million

Richie reportedly succumbed to these demands and ended up giving her $20 million. In 2020, we saw him on the TV series called "The Rookie."

Adele & Simon Konecki – Settlement: No Spousal Support
