Elon Musk and his wife, Talulah Riley, have decided to split for the second time. The two wed for the first time in 2010 but divorced in 2012. Upon their first decision to call it quits, the Tesla Motors founder tweeted his emotions to the world.
"@rileytalulah It was an amazing four years. I will love you forever. You will make someone very happy one day," he wrote.
It turns out that lucky guy was him...again! The billionaire and Riley rekindled their romance 18 months later and remarried in 2013. Unfortunately, it turns out the couple wasn't meant to be. On Dec. 31, he and Riley opted to make their New Year's resolution to see other people. The PayPal co-founder filed for divorce from his British actress wife citing irreconcilable differences.
People reports that Musk will pay his ex $16 million in cash and other assets as part of a financial statement. Their property would be split based on a prenuptial agreement.
The couple was together for a year before splitting but were living apart for five months while Riley wrote and directed Scottish Mussel in the U.K.
Rumors tied Musk to actress Cameron Diaz in 2013, but he quickly squashed the hearsay when he told CNBC that he wasn't seeing the Charlie's Angels actress.
"I'm not dating Cameron Diaz," Musk said. "I don't know where people got that from."
Little did they know he would be linked to his ex-wife again!
Best of luck to the both of them in the New Year!
