On December 3, 2018, Law & Order creator Dick Wolf filed court paperwork for a formal separation from his third wife, Noelle Lippman. The announcement of the producer’s divorce from Lippman came after the couple had been married for 12 years. Wolf mentioned in the court filing that there is a prenuptial agreement. A day later, his wife filed for divorce, seeking spousal support.
Wolf and Lippman married on June 17, 2009. Since their divorce, he has agreed to pay his ex-wife $100,000 every month as a settlement. Wolf allegedly earns between $10 million and $15 million every month. As a result, the monthly payment of $100,000 is equal to or less than 1% of his salary. Lippman is the primary caregiver for the couple’s children, daughter Zoe and son Rex, who were 8 and 11 at the time of the divorce. So yet, there has been no word of Wolf and his wife divorcing.
Divorce from a Second Wife
Wolf had already been married twice before meeting Lippman. His divorce from his second wife, Christine Marburg, drew a lot of attention as well. On June 29, 1983, the creator of Law & Order married Marburg. Olivia, Sarina, and Elliot are their three children. Marburg earned $17.5 million in cash when their divorce was finalized in 2005. She also got spousal maintenance of up to $2 million for eight years, as well as the property in which they previously resided. Marburg subsequently filed an appeal with the court, claiming that significant financial information was hidden from her when she signed their divorce settlement.
She claimed Wolf’s financial adviser duped her into accepting the settlement without alerting her about his $1 billion agreement with NBC Universal in the works. According to People, Marburg claimed that accounting documents revealed that the program was only worth $4 million and was losing money. She just found out about the arrangement after reading about it in the newspaper. At the time, she had already signed the settlement paperwork. She initially filed a lawsuit in 2004, attempting to sue their business advisers and mediators for failing to serve in a properly “neutral” capacity.
The court investigated the matter but found no proof of the mediator having previous personal contact with Wolf. Marburg, on the other hand, was discovered to have commercial contracts with the mediator after the mediation. Marburg finally lost her appeal in 2019 after years in court.
Wolf married for the first time

On March 16, 1983, their 13-year marriage came to an end. The couple did not welcome any children together.
