When Elaine and Steve Wynn’s marriage came to an end, the ex-Mrs. Wynn may have become one of the richest women in the world. She’s now so wealthy that one reporter from Forbes Magazine is actually predicting that her divorce settlement may put her on the next Forbes 400 list. Although, that isn’t too surprising when you think about what she actually walked away with. When the couple finalized their split they divided their 22 million shares in Wynn Resorts stock. That gave Elaine shares worth nearly $800 million. It’s rumored that she may have also received most or all of the $114 million the pair received when they sold company stock last summer. Overall, Duncan Greenberg, the Forbes reporter, says that Elaine is now worth nearly $1 billion dollars. Not too shabby, although she may still have some catching up to do. Steve Wynn’s net worth is valued at $2.3 billion and he’s ranked 141st on Forbes.
