Wealthier than the Queen: Former Miss UK Kirsty Bertarelli, who's going through a divorce, has more money on her account than some countries
The news that the richest Miss UK is divorcing resonated in the world. She currently has more money on her account than the Queen herself.
Former Miss UK Kirsty Bertarelli and her, now ex-husband billionaire Ernesto, divorced in secret after 21 years of marriage.
Thus, this 50-year-old model and singer-songwriter became the richest British 'divorcee'. She is even richer than the British queen herself. The couple has three children, and the divorce will be finalized in the summer of next year.

Their wealth is estimated at 9.2 billion pounds, which is an amount that is higher than, for example, the GDP of countries such as the Bahamas or Armenia.
Their spokesman confirmed for the Daily Mail that they were divorced and stated that the decision was joint and consensual.

The couple refused to talk publicly about the amount that will 'sit' on the account of the former Miss United Kingdom, but it is unofficially known that it is about 350 million pounds. Kirsty has been richer than Elizabeth II so far, and after the divorce, she will have more on her account than, for example, Mick Jagger, Ed Sheeran, and Adele.
Kirsty is believed to have signed a prenuptial agreement with Ernest before marrying in 2000 to avoid a possible delay in the dispute after the divorce.
She became the Miss United Kingdom in 1988 and 2nd runner up at Miss World in 1988.
