Barkin 'Receives $20 Million In Divorce'

Hollywood actress Ellen Barkin reportedly received $20 million (GBP11.7 million) in her quickie divorce from billionaire Ron Perelman.

The Revlon boss, 62, and the SEA OF LOVE star, 51, reportedly ended their marriage on 14 February (06), only a month after Perelman served Barkin divorce papers, according to the New York Daily News.

Perelman's lawyer Adria Hillman asked for an order to seal the case earlier this month (08FEB06), which was granted by Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Laura Drager.

Barkin and Perelman signed a pre-nuptial agreement before their June 2000 wedding.

The newspaper claims Perelman has lost $118 million (GBP69 million) in settlements with his first three wives, FAITH GOLDING, Claudia Cohen and Patricia Duff.

Barkin has two children, ROMEY and Jack, from her previous marriage to actor Gabriel Byrne.
