How much Richard Hammond's divorce is going to cost him as he looks set to lose huge amount from his staggering £65million fortune

But the star's announcement that his 28-year marriage to the newspaper columnist is coming to an end means that the couple will have to split their assets in half, given the length of time they have been together, a legal expert has warned. When Richard and his Top Gear co-stars Jeremy Clarkson and James May were axed by the BBC in 2015, they signed a mega £160million deal with Amazon for the show Grand Tour, which saw his annual earnings rise to £7.25million a year.
