David Guetta: Is Divorce Costing The DJ $15 Million?


David Guetta is reportedly going through a pretty ugly divorce. Unfortunately for the EDM artist, it could end up costing him a ton of money.

According to various reports, the French DJ is ended his marriage to Cathy Guetta not too long ago. Although concrete details are few and far between as of this writing, apparently a few anonymous sources have kept their ears pressed firmly against more than a few informative walls. Word on the street suggests that David Guetta will end up losing quite a bit of money before this ugly situation officially wraps up.

A source reportedly told Page Six that the DJ’s wife is taking a substantial amount of money from David’s bank account on her way out the door. Although he’s the “rock star” in their relationship, apparently she’s known as the “business mogul.”

Here’s what the insider had to say:

“Cathy owns all of the business names, and the music [rights], [including] their ‘F**k Me I’m Famous’ brand.’ Even though [their divorce] is finalized, things are not good.”

Since David Guetta is reportedly worth around $30 million, it’s believed that Cathy could end up taking $15 million with her at the end of the day. It’s probably a good thing that the acclaimed DJ is making enough money to pop up on Forbes most successful DJs list. Of course, who knows if any of this pile of gossip is actually true.

Digging for specifics regarding David’s divorce is a decidedly difficult task. There really isn’t too much information floating around the internet at the moment. The Inquisitr reported earlier this year that the Guettas ended their marriage in a Parisian court towards the beginning of 2014. Although the couple have two children together, it’s unclear who ended up with primary custody. Everything is pretty hush-hush right now.

In fact, a member of David Guetta’s legal team attempted to squash reports of the divorce by issuing an official statement on the matter. What’s more, the attorney threatened to sue the French publication that reportedly started the rumor.

The legal rep boldly declared back in March:

“[There] is no divorce! No court decision! If there is no divorce, there is no official information, no public interest! According to French law, you cannot report on that private matter.”

It’s presently unknown why David and Cathy decided to call it quits. Perhaps the DJ’s music had something to do with it. According to Cognitive Psychology and Neuroscience professor Jacob Jolij, the EDM musician’s blend of “uptempo” minor-key music and strong rhythms can cause some people to experience bouts of furious anger.

Professor Jolij explained:

“Music can have powerful effects on our emotions: from making us happy, to enabling the ability to overcome fear, certain music can trigger emotions and hormones that directly affect our moods. The list of tracks compiled with Spotify highlight some of the most effective songs to take us from sad to happy or angry to optimistic.”

Here’s hoping David and Cathy Guetta at least manage to remain civil for the kids.
