Billionaire David Geffen Files Divorce From Husband Amid 50-Year Age Gap

David Geffen, the 82-year-old entertainment billionaire, is undergoing a high-profile divorce from his 32-year-old husband, David Armstrong, also known as Donovan Michaels, a go-go dancer and model. The couple, who married in 2023 without a prenup, are now entangled in a contentious split, with Armstrong seeking legal fees and an investigation into Geffen's finances, despite being entitled to only one year of spousal support under California law. Armstrong's adoptive father, Patrick Armstrong, expressed surprise and confusion over the marriage, revealing he was unaware of the wedding until it was publicized, and cited the significant 50-year age gap as a reason he doubted the marriage's longevity. A former girlfriend of Armstrong further questioned his motives for the marriage, highlighting his ambitions for fame and wealth and noting his past strong attraction to women. The divorce proceedings spotlight the complexities of their relationship and the challenges posed by their contrasting backgrounds and the absence of a prenuptial agreement. Geffen, retired for 15 years, derives his wealth primarily from investments, which are held in separate accounts not subject to division in the divorce.
