Bill Murray Wife Violent with Kids

The Bill Murray and Jennifer Butler Murray divorce was finalized on June 13, less than a week after it was reported that Jennifer had a problem boozing, and getting violent with the kids. She got a really good deal according to People:

Butler Murray, 42, has been granted primary custody of their four children and will keep the couple’s homes in Hemet, Calif. and Sullivan’s Island, S.C. Bill Murray, 57, must pay child support and will keep other property in California, New York and Massachusetts.

Bill Murray must also pay Jennifer a lump sum. The Murrays signed a prenuptial agreement in which Bill would pay his wife $7 million in a divorce, and, according to court documents, it is still valid.

It’s nice to see this divorce did not get ugly. Prenups can prevent a lot of hostility when a marriage ends.

Bill Murray Wife Violent with Kids

On March 17 in South Carolina, Bill Murray’s wife, Jennifer Butler Murray, got drunk and violent with her kids, according to a report filed with the Sullivan’s Island Police. A witness caught Jennifer yelling at one of the couple’s kids, and the cop who wrote the police report wrote that she was "very impaired."

Jennifer has accused Bill of a lot of bad things in their divorce to apparently get around a prenuptial agreement. It appears the court battle will be messier now that Jennifer’s own current history has been exposed. Her allegations could have been a preemptive strike, since she knows she’s got dirty hands too.

According to court docs, Jennifer and the couple’s four children moved out of the family home in 2006 because of what she says was her husband’s "adultery, addiction to marijuana and alcohol, abusive behavior, physical abuse, sexual addictions and frequent abandonment." The docs also say the star "hit his wife in the face and then told her she was ’lucky he didn’t kill her’ " and that this happened more than once during their marriage.

A statement released by his lawyer says:

"Bill Murray is deeply saddened by the dissolution of his marriage to Jennifer. Mr. and Mrs. Murray remain loving parents, committed to the best interests of their children. Mr. Murray asks that the public respect his family’s privacy at this difficult time."
