The Truth About Lionel Richie's Ex-Wives

After Lionel Richie's divorce from Brenda Harvey-Richie was finalized in 1993, he was able to re-marry with Diane Alexander. According to Just Richest, the duo tied the knot on Dec. 21, 1995. The previous year, they had also started their own family and welcomed their son Miles Brockman Richie on May 27, 1994. They would go on to have a daughter, Sofia Richie, on Aug. 24, 1998.

After seven years of marriage, Lionel and Alexander announced they would be splitting up in 2003, per Gossip Cop. In 2004, Alexander filed for divorce due to irreconcilable differences, according to Just Richest. With that being said, she was requesting a whopping $300,000 per month in spousal support; $20,000 of that budget was so she could pay for plastic surgery, per E! News. In the end, the divorce reportedly nearly cost Lionel a staggering $20 million. Geez! 

Since their messy split, Lionel's love life has continued to make headlines. The "Dancing on the Ceiling" hitmaker is now in another relationship after finding love with his girlfriend Lisa Parigi, per Capital Xtra. Despite their huge 40-year age gap, they both seem to be very happy with one another.
