Real estate mogul Michael Fuchs is in a "precarious" financial state with debts exceeding $250 million, and at the same time, in a difficult position amid a bitter divorce. His ex-wife, through her lawyers, is pushing for the imprisonment of the owner of the legendary Chrysler Tower skyscraper.

UNN reports with reference to Bloomberg.

Details

Michael Fuchs and Alvina Collardeau-Fuchs married in New York in 2012 and had two children. But for many years, the former couple has been in a tense divorce process. Currently, the co-founder of the investment company RFR Holding "is between a rock and a hard place, with creditors on all sides. A key threat comes from Fuchs' ex-wife, who demanded his imprisonment for violating a court order regarding their bitter divorce.

Context

The legal dispute arose after a 2022 decision: Fuchs was "ordered" to pay his ex-wife Alvina Collardeau £37.5 million ($49.2 million) to give her a "clean break" from the real estate mogul.

Collardeau's lawyers claim that Fuchs violated a subsequent court order by selling certain properties and sending the money to his business partner Aby Rosen.

Through her lawyers, the woman demanded a corresponding fine and confiscation of assets, and also called for a two-year prison sentence for Fuchs.

Influential businessman "stripped bare"

Currently, real estate mogul Michael Fuchs has debts totaling over $250 million. According to lawyers, the businessman is in a "precarious" financial situation. At the same time, according to the mogul's statement, he has already paid Alvina Collardeau $31 million, which Fuchs even had to borrow. In addition, he promised to pay another $10 million.

Addition

London family courts are a popular venue for high-value divorce disputes, and judges are usually willing to rule on a more equal division of marital assets.

According to the latest data, Collardeau has currently received assets worth £47 million. Lawyers for the parties did not comment on Bloomberg's request.

Recall

In October 2025, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck made their first red carpet appearance together after their divorce at the premiere of "Kiss of the Spider Woman" in New York. Lopez starred in and executive produced the film alongside Affleck.

Representatives of Meta, ByteDance, Alphabet, and Snap will face trial on lawsuits accusing them of deliberately designing social networks to be addictive to teenagers.
