Ruben studdard divorce settlement

Ruben studdard divorce settlement, Life size teddy bear and former ‘American Idol’ winner Ruben Studdard thought he found everlasting love when he met  Zuri McCants at a Wal-Mart CD signing in 2006 and later married her in 2008. Apparently, he was wrong because the two ended up filing for divorce after three years of marriage last November, citing irreconcilable differences as the reason for their split.

According to TMZ, even though Zuri signed a prenup before they were married, she attempted to cash out and get the judge to nullify the document, claiming Ruben pulled a fast one and used the peer-pressure tactic by presenting the prenup just days before the wedding.

Recently, the judge dropped down the gavel with a heavy ‘girl please’ and upheld the prenup, awarding Zuri damn near nothing.  Ruben is a happy and lucky man because according to the final judgment, he didn’t have to pay any spousal support or alimony, and he gets to keep their home plus all his belongings –clothing, jewelry, pensions, royalties, and all his money. Wait, it’s not over … Zuri was even ordered to give Ruben back her blinged out engagement ring.
