Sportscaster Paying a Million in Alimony and Child Support
CBS sportscaster Jim Nantz is out of his 26-year marriage – along with nearly $1 million a year in alimony and child support. A Connecticut judge ordered Nantz, who testified tearfully at the divorce trial, to pay his now ex-wife Lorrie $916,000 annually.
While Superior Court Judge Howard Owens found neither party at fault, it was Nantz – the lead voice of CBS’ NFL, college basketball and Masters coverage – who took the financial hit.
Under Monday’s nine-page decision, Nantz must pay his former wife $72,000 a month, plus $1,000 a week in child support for their 15-year-old daughter Caroline.
The alimony last until either his death or her remarriage, while the child support covers the next two years. Nantz is also required to cover his daughter’s college expenses until she turns 23.
Nantz’s ex-wife was seeking $1.5 million in annual alimony and child support.
During the trial, Nantz cried on the stand while testifying that his wife offered him no career support.
He also acknowledged an ongoing affair with a 29-year-old woman, although he insisted it began only because his marriage had “died” a decade ago. The romance began last year while Nantz was on a book promotional tour.
Nantz earns $3.9 million a year from his announcing job, court documents indicated.
The sportscaster’s lawyer said Nantz will not appeal the ruling.
Lorrie Nantz kept the couple’s six-bedroom home in Westport, Conn., along with a condominium where her mother lives. Jim Nantz must also pay $70,000 toward a country club membership for his ex-spouse.
