The NY Post reports that Kelsey Grammer initially offered his estranged wife Camille $30 million as a divorce settlement, but that she’s holding out for $50 million, and substantial child support and alimony. Of course she is. It’s expected that Camille will get the $50 million and everything she’s asking for.
Meanwhile The Post may have a good explanation for why Kelsey is so eager to marry his 29 year-old flight attendant fiance, Kayte Walsh. They report that his rep denies that he’s marrying her because she needs a visa to stay in the US. Many of you have speculated that she’s pregnant again, but this visa angle should have occurred to me. Kelsey is said to be marrying Kayte without a prenup, because “he knows she’s the one and wouldn’t insult her by asking her to sign a pre-nup.” The dumb bastard.
Kelsey Grammer’s soon to be ex-wife, Camille Donatacci, rejected an estimated $30 million divorce offer from the “Frasier” star because he wasn’t offering alimony or child support, a source told us.
Friends say Donatacci demanded the $50 million she’s now expected to get from him as well as spousal and child support for their two children, Mason, 9, and Jude, 6.
Our source says she was sick of Grammer, 55, parading around his new British gal pal, Kayte Walsh, 29. A source close to Camille said, “She rejected an offer from Kelsey just before Christmas. He wasn’t offering child support or alimony, and told her through his lawyers that she’d get enough in the settlement.
“Because there is no prenup, Camille was certain she’d get up to $50 million, because she’s a partner in his TV company and entitled to half the money he made from shows, including ‘Frasier,’ while they were married.
“She has accepted their marriage is over and that he wants to marry Kayte in January. Camille wants it all over, too. But what she can’t accept is how he’s parading around Kayte, who looks like the cat who swallowed the canary. Their public make-out sessions are really insensitive because of their kids.”

You know that Camille doesn’t give a whit about her kids and barely ever sees them. She has four nannies that work in shifts so that she’s never responsible for caring for them. And if Kelsey’s “public makeout sessions” with Kayte bother her, what’s her excuse for carrying on with that Nick guy back when she thought that Kelsey was still her loyal husband? Nick even went to Vegas to be with her when Kelsey wasn’t there and she called him her “rent-a-husband.”
I’m torn about this, because I do feel if Camille ran Kelsey’s businesses with him and supported him through his sobriety she deserves her share. $30 million is astronomical though, and considering what a nasty opportunistic person Camille is, I would love to see her get a taste of life on five figures a year.
Here’s a clip of Camille with Nick. (It only plays for US visitors, sorry about that!)
