Former Arsenal striker Thierry Henry has paid an £8million settlement to ex-wife Claire Merry to end their messy divorce battle.

The 31-year-old football star is said to have agreed to the payoff to avoid further showdowns in court.

A source told the Sun: 'They are both just pleased it’s over.'
In July, Claire and Thierry failed to reach an agreement in the High Court.

The 27-year-old model was said to be demanding a £10million settlement based on the French player’s £130,000-a week earnings, including money from his ad deals with Pringles and McDonald's and a cut of the £5.9million marital home in Hampstead, North London.

Happier times: The couple before their divorce last year

However Thierry, who has an estimated £25million fortune, argued he was successful before the pair met.

A friend of Claire's revealed yesterday: 'It was settled at the end of last week. Claire is delighted.

'Neither her or Thierry wanted to go back to court as they are both now moving on with their lives.

She is happy with the conclusion. She said it is close to the £10million she wanted.'

The couple were married for four years after meeting on the set of the Renault Clio adverts in 2001 and have a three-year-old daughter Tea.

Claire was granted a quickie divorce in September last years on the grounds of the Thierry's 'unreasonable behaviour', after he was linked to make-up artist Sadie Hewlett.

It was claimed that Claire found text messages to another woman on the Barcelona star's mobile phone.

Claire used divorce lawyer Fiona Shackleton, who is famous for helping Prince Charles and Sir Paul McCartney, while Henry hired law firm Mishcon de Reya, which represented Princess Diana and Heather Mills

i swear i just dont get it? :blink:

It just gives every hussy out there an incentive to have sex with one of the stars in the hope that he'll get smitten and ask the gold digger to marry him and after 2-3 years she can walk away filthy rich and marry the geezer she REALLY wanted all along..

English Marital law is crap... Did i just hear someone say Pre-Nups :clap:

I dont believe anyone called her a gold digger.. but the truth is rather than try to make the marriage work. She took the easiest option available and that was to walk away.

Classic example: Ashley Cole... He cheated, did his missus walk away? Golden nuts cheated, did his missus walk away..??

Its just bare facts fella... Most of these women are there for the cash... Lets see how much Bernie Ecclestones missus will want from their failed marriage and that dude is worth a shite load.. although it wouldnt suprise me if she got didly squat as the impish fella is as shrewd as they come

U must look at the facts, most prem footballers arent exactly great looking guys, but most date women that would outrank them on the looks scale. These women wouldnt look at most of the guys they r dating if they werent pro players. Its getting scary, they had that poll of 12yr & 13yr old school girls end of last yr beginning of this and no1 choice of career was: To be famous and no2 was: To be a WAG.

Fame, wealth or power has always attracted women....................its just that nowadays, WAGS can become "famous" just because they r a WAG.
