FILE - A Sunday, Jan. 26 , 2014 from files showing President of AS Monaco Dmitry Rybolovlev, left, and Prince Albert II Of Monaco, as they attend the French League One soccer match Monaco vs Marseille, in Monaco stadium. A Swiss court has ordered Russian billionaire Dmitry Rybolovlev to pay $4.5 billion to his ex-wife, in what could end up being the biggest divorce settlement in history. In papers delivered to the parties Monday, May 19, 2014, the Geneva Tribunal of First Instance said the 47-year-old Rybolovlev, a co-owner of the French soccer club AS Monaco, must pay 4,020,555,987.80 Swiss francs ($4,509,375,184.80) to ex-wife Elena Rybolovleva, also 47, of Geneva. The judgment shows that his wife also won two pieces of real estate in the ultra-wealthy area of Geneva known as Cologny, where the couple once lived together, and confirmed her custody of their 13-year-old daughter Anna. They also have an older daughter, Ekaterina, after meeting as university students in Perm, Russia, and marrying there in 1987. The divorce case began in 2008, when Forbes estimated his worth at $12.8 billion. (AP Photo/Lionel Cironneau)
