Ewan McGregor ‘will pay HALF of his Star Wars royalties to ex-wife as part of divorce settlement’

Ewan McGregor is set to pay half of his Star Wars royalties to ex-wife Eve Mavrakis as part of their divorce settlement, according to the judgement. 

The judge has signed off on the former couple’s split following 22 years of marriage after the actor, 49, filed to divorce Eve, 53, back in January 2018. 

It is thought that Ewan will be forced to share royalties and residuals from the projects he worked on during the marriage which includes four Star Wars films, Angels & Demons, The Men Who Stare at Goats and Moulin Rouge.

Ewan is set to keep thirty of the couple’s vehicles including cars and motorcycles which he collected throughout their marriage.

Eve will pocket a $6.62 million house in Los Angeles as well as jewellery, bank accounts and five cars. 

She will also get $501,704 in cash to even out the asset split as well as a base child support of $14,934 per month and base spousal support of $35,868 per month, according to documentation obtained by TMZ.  

The exes are sharing joint legal and physical custody of their nine-year-old daughter Anouk. 

MailOnline has contacted Ewan’s representatives for comment.

The actor initially filed for a divorce from his wife back in January 2018.

It was reported earlier this year that the former couple had submitted ‘a judgement package to the court laying out details of their financial settlement’, according to The Blast. 

Just over a year ago the pair’s eldest daughter Clara, 24, referred to Ewan’s girlfriend Mary Elizabeth Winstead, 35, as ‘a piece of trash’ on Instagram. 

Ewan and Eve, who wed back in 1995, also share daughters, Jamyan, 19, Esther, 18, and Anouk. 

The couple confirmed they had split in October 2017 and Eve was first pictured without her wedding ring around the same time.

Ewan was allegedly contributing money to his estranged wife and children ‘voluntarily,’ though he frequently took issue with the amount he was being expected to put forth.  

French production designer Eve attempted to counter Ewan’s argument by claiming the Star Wars alum was not paying her or her children nearly enough.   

Daughter Clara fired verbal shots at Winstead in July of last year after a fan of the actress tagged her in a photo of Ewan and Mary sharing a kiss at the Vanity Fair Oscars party in 2014. 

In the post’s caption, the fan had referred to Winstead as ‘the most beautiful and talented woman on earth’ – something Clara was more than ready to refute. 

‘Most beautiful and talented woman on earth??? Oh man y’all are delusional. The girl is a piece of trash :),’ wrote Clara in the post’s comment section.

Soon after her vicious reply, another Winstead fan urged her to ‘say it to [Winstead’s] face not [on] social media.’

They added: ‘It took TWO to undo this marriage. If a man OR woman is happy w/ their marriage no outside interference can destroy that!’

To the fan’s surprise, Clara firmly agrees with their assessment. ‘Yup it took two!! Mary & my father :),’ she wrote.

In an interview with British newspaper The Times, Clara openly acknowledged the immaturity of her Instagram banter, but claimed that her rage was justified.   

‘It wasn’t the most mature way to go about things, but I was angry and upset.’

According to Clara, there were things going on behind-the-scenes that became ‘a lot to deal with’ and eventually sent her over the edge.

‘There had been a lot building up to it and a lot to deal with – not to make excuses or anything – but, yeah, it wasn’t my finest moment,’ she admitted.

She also explained that she kept ‘being tagged in the photograph’ and was ‘seeing negative things about [her] mom’.

‘I said how I felt and I didn’t want to apologize for it. It wasn’t the right way to go about things, but it’s a hard thing to wrap your head around when you feel you had this idea of what the family unit is and then to have that shift. It’s very weird.’ 

As for getting to know Winstead on a personal level, Clara stated that she was ‘good’ with keeping her distance from the Birds Of Prey star.   

‘I wish them all the best, but I’m staying out of that, for sure,’ she concluded.
