Sources claim that Mel Gibson and Oksana Grigorieva started dating in 2008 after Gibson’s separation from his wife of 28 years, Robyn Moore. In 2009, the two welcomed a daughter named Lucia. However, things soon took a turn.
In 2010, Grigorieva accused Gibson of domestic violence, alleging that he physically assaulted her during an argument and punched her several times. The singer initially demanded $15 million in her settlement with the actor, however, the court eventually settled the case on $750,000 and Gibson agreed to pay her in three installments.
The judge warned Grigorieva not to speak publicly about the case, however, in 2013, she talked about it onThe Howard Stern Show. At that point, Gibson had already paid her one of the $250,000 installments, but since she talked about the case publicly, the California Court of Appeals ruled that Gibson won’t have to pay her the remaining $500,000.
