The $3million divorce: Zooey Deschanel's earnings revealed as she files to end marriage to Ben Gibbard
Zooey Deschanel has made her split from Ben Gibbard official and filed for divorce.
And now court documents have been leaked revealing just how much is at stake for the New Girl star.
The 31-year-old has $1,578,00 in the bank and an additional $1,645,000 stashed away in stocks and bonds.
The documents, which were filed by Deschanel's lawyer and posted on TMZ, also list her various expenses.
They state that she makes an average
of $95,000 a month and spends $22,500 on clothes, her mortgage, health
care, holidays and the like.
She also give $1,500 each month to charity.
Deschanel and her musician husband Ben Gibbard announced their shocking split two months ago, and now the couple has made it official and filed for divorce.
According to court documents, the actress filed for divorce from the Death Cab for Cutie singer on December 27, citing irreconcilable differences.
The couple were married for two years and Deschanel's publicist has said that the split was 'amicable'.
She was photographed shopping in Beverly Hills just four days before filing the papaers, looking happy and festive in a red winter coat.
Deschanel declined to comment on the cause of the break-up in an interview with People magazine, but told them: 'We're friendly, It's all fine.'
The two tied the knot near Seattle, Washington in September of 2009 and there have been no reports of disharmony in their marriage or the involvement of a third party.
Gibbard, the frontman for indie rock band Death Cab for Cutie, recently gushed over his soon-to-be-ex in New York magazine.
'I'd seen her in movies and obviously I thought she was very beautiful,' the 35-year-old said.
When he was introduced to Deschanel, who fronts the band She and Him, by their mutual music manager three years ago, it was love at first sight.
'I was just awestruck that she was even talking to me,' he said.
Ironically, the New Girl star has previously expressed displeasure at being separated from her husband.
She told iVillage that being away from Gibbard while he was on tour was 'definitely hard.'
She also somewhat ironically added that it takes a lot of work to make a marriage last.
'You can't expect to make no effort. You still have to make the effort and be kind and understanding. It sort of just solidifies your commitment.'
