Greed? Ex-wife of US oil baron to appeal $1 billion divorce award

The former wife of an American oil tycoon is contesting the $1 billion in cash and assets awarded to her in the couple’s divorce on the grounds that it grossly undervalues the marital wealth she is entitled to.

An Oklahoma County judge on Monday (November 10) allowed Harold Hamm (68) to keep nearly all of an estimated $18 billion (2.98 trillion) rise in his company (Continental Resources) shares that occurred during their 26-year marriage, leaving wife Sue Ann (56), feeling short-changed.

Ron Barber, one of the attorneys on her legal team said yesterday (Thursday, November 13): “Sue Ann is disappointed in the outcome of this case. She dedicated 25 years as Harold’s faithful partner in family and business”.
