Kelsey Grammer`s divorce could cost him more than $71 million
The former `Frasier` star`s recent revelation that his new girlfriend, British air stewardess Kayte Walsh, is expecting his baby is said to have infuriated estranged spouse Camille Donatacci, who now wants more than half of his estimated $120 million fortune.
An insider said: "The split has been anything but amicable. Camille was devastated when she found out about the betrayal - even more so when she discovered her husband?s mistress was pregnant.
"Kelsey is in love with Kayte and simply wants to move on. But he`s bracing himself for a huge payout."
However, Camille - who owns half of the star`s Grammnet Productions television company - is said to be seeking the payout for revenge, rather than monetary reasons.
The source continued to the Daily Mirror newspaper: "It`s not all about cash for Camille though as she`s extremely solvent in her own right. But she remains a woman scorned. Camille feels humiliated and wants Kelsey to apologise for his mistakes."
Camille married Kelsey in 1997, four years after `Frasier` - in which the actor played radio psychiatrist Frasier Crane - first aired.
The former Playboy model - who has two children, Mason Olivia, eight, and Jude Gordan, five, with her estranged spouse - filed for divorce in July citing irreconcilable differences as the reason for the separation.
According to reports, Camille - the actor`s third wife - is requesting joint legal custody and primary physical custody of the children, as well as spousal and child support.
Kelsey is allegedly not offering spousal support and is requesting Camille receives none of his earnings from before the marriage.
