Diandra, Michael Douglas’ ex-wife, walked away with $45 million from their divorce — here’s what her life looks like now

Michael Douglas is now happily married to actress Catherine Zeta-Jones but before this marriage, he was married to Diandra Luker. He was with Luker for almost two decades before they called it quits.

His divorce cost him quite a lot of money. Keep reading to know more.

Michael Douglas and his ex-wife Diandra Luker were together for 18 years before they decided to separate. Their divorce became Hollywood’s most expensive as Michael was ordered to pay his ex-wife $45 million.

Hollywood star Michael Douglas, 79, is known for his roles in iconic films such as “Fatal Attraction” and “Wall Street.” He has cemented his place as one of Hollywood’s most celebrated actors.

 

He has also been awarded two Oscars, one for “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” and the other for his role in “Wall Street.”

Today, he is married to another fellow Oscar-winning actor – Catherine Zeta-Jones, 59. He and Zeta-Jones have two children, Dylan Douglas, 23, and Carys Zeta Douglas, 21.

 

But his marriage to Catherine is not Douglas’s first. He was previously married – a union that cost him dearly.

Michael Douglas had recently achieved great success with the film “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” when he and Diandra Luker, 68, said ‘I do’ to each other in 1977. And a year later, they welcomed their son Cameron Douglas.

Michael reportedly had to pay his ex-wife a whole 45 million dollars, when they divorced years later in the year 2000.

In addition to that, she also got their shared residence in Santa Barbara, California. However, Diandra was not finished there. In 2011, she was back in court to demand more money.

This time, Diandra claimed that she had stood by her husband’s side when he made the film Wall Street and, therefore, demanded that she should get half of the income that he would earn from the sequel to the first film. But her legal process would have significant consequences as Michael Douglas had been diagnosed with cancer just two months earlier. Diandra was then accused of demanding money from a sick man.

After all the hate she had to endure, she finally decided to speak out about the situation.

 

“Michael didn’t know he was ill, I didn’t know he was ill, and the gods didn’t know he was ill,” she said. She went on, “I am not into going after sick people for things that don’t belong to me.”

Diandra lost the case and thus received no new money from her ex-husband.

Diandra does not seem to have any financial worries, having lived a life of luxury in Mallorca until 2019.

“S’Estaca,” the villa she previously shared with her ex-husband Michael Douglas, is located in a beautiful area overlooking the cliffs of Sa Foradada and the sea. The house has 10 bedrooms, a loft, two cottages, terraces, a pool, a wine cellar, and private access to the sea on a large plot of 100 hectares, according to reports.

In 2019, Douglas bought out Diandra’s share of the villa, and since then, she seems to have moved to Ibiza, where she now spends much time and shares many pictures from the place on her social media.

With her in Ibiza are the twins Hudson and Hawk, 20 years old, whom she had via a surrogate with ex Zach Hampton Bacon III, as well as daughter Imara de Morrell Douglas, born in 2005, whom Diandra adopted from Russia.

According to the New York Post, Diandra also sold an apartment in New York for an astonishing 17 million dollars in 2022.
