Dr. Dre’s wife Nicole Young challenges prenup in $1 billion divorce

Dr. Dre’s wife, Nicole Young is not getting divorced without fighting for a share of the rapper’s billion dollar fortune, despite signing a prenuptial agreement with the Hip-Hop mogul according to a new report.

 Nicole Young, 50, who was married to Dre, 55, for 24 years, filed for divorce against the billionaire producer, rapper and Label executive citing ‘irreconcilable differences.’

In the filings she asked for spousal support, a share of his estate and division of his wealth as they didn’t sign any pren-up.

Dr. Dre, days later came out to respond to Nicole’s filings with his own legal documents showing that he and Nicole signed a prenup before they married.

Now a report from TMZ says Nicole Young is challenging their prenup as Dre’s $1 billion is on the line.

According to TMZ, Nicole claims she was pressured and forced against her will to sign the documents in 1996 and Dre tore portions of the documents after feeling ashamed that he made her sign the documents. 

The report reads;

”Nicole says Dre is now worth $1 bil, and says before they tied the knot, “I was extremely reluctant, resistant and afraid to sign the agreement and felt backed into a corner. Given the extraordinary pressure and intimidation by Andre, I was left with no option but to hire a lawyer (of course, with the help of Andre’s team of professionals) and unwillingly signed the agreement very shortly before our marriage.”

 She then says 2 years into the marriage, “Andre acknowledged to me that he felt ashamed he had pressured me into signing a premarital agreement and he tore up multiple copies of the agreement in front of me. Since the day he tore up the agreements, we both understood that there was no premarital agreement, and that it was null and void.”

According to TMZ, “sources connected to Dre say he never expressed shame over the prenup and he never tore it up or said it was invalid. Our sources also say Nicole had her own lawyer and she had a clear choice on whether to sign or not.

“Our sources say Dre has made it clear … he will pay spousal support and all her expenses, but clearly Nicole wants a big piece of the pie, claiming he amassed most of his fortune during the marriage.”

“Nicole is asking the judge to separate the divorce from the prenup issue, but it looks like a fight is brewing”
