Will Michelle Rounds' net worth increase after messy divorce battle with Rosie O'Donnell? That seems to be the question now after the 52-year-old "The View" host announced that she and wife, Michelle had split up several months ago. As for the reason of the split, the witty television personality cited, "an irretrievably broken relationship."

Michelle Rounds, whose net worth is unknown, started dating Rosie O'Donnell in mid-2011. At that time, she was a 40-year-old executive-search consultant from New York City. On December 2011, O'Donnell announced she was engaged to Rounds during a break in taping of "The Rosie Show."

Michelle Rounds and Rosie O'Donnell, who has a whopping $100 million net worth as listed by The Richest, eventually got married in a private ceremony in New York in June 2012. The following year, they adopted a baby girl named Dakota. However, last Feb. 6, representatives for O'Donnell confirmed she and Rounds had separated in November last year, New York Post's Page Six exclusively revealed.

"I can confirm that Rosie and her wife Michelle split in November." O'Donnell's rep Cindi Berger confirmed earlier this month, E! News quoted. "Rosie has teens and an infant at home that need her attention. This has been a very stressful situation. She is putting her personal health and family first. ABC has been wonderfully understanding and supportive of her personal decision to leave 'The View.' Next week will be her last."

After the divorce was reported, several rumors and questions emerged including Michelle Rounds' net worth. Could she split O'Donnell's $100 million fortune after their divorce battle? According Hollywood Take, the couple's separation is starting to get messy. Since the split, O'Donnell reportedly has sold her Greenwich penthouse for $9 million and is currently asking for $5.7 million for her and Rounds' Florida home.

However, it seems Michelle Rounds' net worth will not increase or double after her divorce with Rosie O'Donnell since she signed a prenuptial agreement hours before their wedding in 2012, The Daily Mail revealed. However, sources said the acclaimed talk show host has been extremely generous to Rounds in the prenup.

And while Rosie O'Donnell's fortune currently valued at $100 million as Celebrity Net Worth reported, Michelle Rounds' net worth is still undisclosed. Maybe after the divorce, her fortune will be revealed.
