David Geffen’s Divorce: What We Know About His No-Prenup Split

David Geffen filed for divorce from husband David Armstrong after two years of marriage.

According to TMZ, the billionaire didn't sign a prenup before tying the knot with the former dancer.

Geffen, reportedly worth over $9 billion, cited "irreconcilable differences" in filing for divorce.

Their official date of separation is marked as February 22, 2025, and in true Hollywood fashion, Geffen has hired celebrity divorce powerhouse Laura Wasser to represent him.

The couple tied the knot in a surprise ceremony last year, but now their split could raise eyebrows, especially with no prenup in place.

While Geffen famously founded record labels like DreamWorks Records, Geffen Records, Asylum, and DGC, most of his fortune these days comes from investments and stocks.

TMZ reported that California law considers income from stocks to be separate property, meaning Armstrong likely won’t walk away with much.

That said, he’s not leaving empty-handed. Under California law, spousal support typically lasts for half the length of the marriage, so Armstrong, aka Donovan Michaels, is reportedly set to receive a year’s worth of support.

Geffen will also be footing the bill for his ex’s legal fees.

The record executive was previously romantically linked to Cher in the 1970s, before coming out as gay in 1992.
