Divorce no. three for Roman Abramovich

Roman Abramovich, the Russian oligarch and owner of Chelsea FC, announced that he has separated from his third wife, Dasha Zhukova.

The couple, who have two children, insisted the split was amicable but they could be embroiled in the world’s costliest divorce if forced to untangle the tycoon’s £7 billion fortune.

Abramovich owns Chelsea football club, the second largest yacht in the world and several luxury properties, including a £60 million mansion in New York and a £50 million property in Kensington Palace Gardens.

Abramovich ended his last marriage in 2008 with a reputed settlement of £150 million. However, Zhukova is the wealthy daughter of a Russian oil magnate and may not have any desire to pursue her husband for money.
