Rachel’s Ex Could Win Spousal Support
CloseThough Bryan has a chiropractic business, it’s apparently not doing well financially, and he’s considering spousal support from Rachel, which he could win, considering she’s worth more. “He’s going after her for spousal support — and he just might get it,” the source said.
Even if her estranged husband doesn’t win big in their divorce, it could cost Rachel a lot in legal fees, the insider warned. “She’s worth a few million,” they claimed. “She’s hired a top notch lawyer, but this could wind up costing her plenty.”
Rachel herself has confessed that she wishes she got a prenup, admitting it would’ve made her current situation less complicated (and threatening to her net worth).
“The reason I didn’t [get a prenup] is because the place I’m in now financially … is totally different than when I got married,” she admitted during an appearance on the “Hidden Gems With Natasha Parker” podcast earlier this month. “We were more level and I wasn’t living in California.”
Reflecting on their marriage that took place in 2019, Rachel described it as a "different time" in her life. Back then, she was working as a lawyer and didn’t have the same professional and financial opportunities that she enjoys today, largely thanks to her involvement in the Bachelor franchise.
