American tennis legend Chris Evert has phenomenal records in tennis. However, the 67-year-old had an unstable personal life. Growing up, she had a strict father, and later, when she achieved success in her career, the former world number 1 found it hard to find love. The American married thrice and sadly, her marriages didn’t last. For now, she lives a single life and has three sons from her second husband, Andy Mill.

Back in 2006, when Evert divorced Mill, the tennis legend had to pay a big settlement amount to her ex-husband. Here’s what happened.

Evert’s $7 million divorce with Andy Mill

Chris Evert had the experience of divorce before she married Mill. Her first marriage with John Lloyd lasted eight years, and the couple broke up in 1987. She married Mill in 1988 and the couple had an 18-year-long marriage and three children. Notably, the tennis star had to pay a $7 million in settlement to Mill. After her separation, she fell in love with Australian golfer Greg Norman and married him.

Evert filed for divorce in November 2005, and the final judgment came in December 2006. As per the ruling, Evert had to pay $7 million in cash and securities. However, she had custody of the three sons the couple had from their marriage. Notably, the former world number 1 later blamed menopause for her divorce from Mill.
