Prenup moves

In a world where love is eternal, but wealth isn’t always safe, but the prenup has emerged as the ultimate power move. It’s not just paperwork; it’s protection, preservation, and, frankly, a bold, unapologetic flex. And leading this charge of financial fierceness? The world’s richest man… Jeff Bezos, who recently tied the knot with media maven Lauren Sánchez in a ceremony that was part fairytale, part fiscal fortress.

Sources suggest the couple’s airtight prenup is more battle-ready than Bezos’ Blue Origin spacecraft. After a $38 billion divorce settlement with ex-wife MacKenzie Scott, Bezos wasn’t about to let lightning strike twice. This time, the billionaire made sure that his fortune, built from pixels, packages, and Prime, is locked, loaded, and ironclad and legally safeguarded. And with good reason: love is beautiful, but litigation isn’t. TheGlitz spotlights the new mantra in marriages – prenup!

The Prenup – When Love Signs a Contract

Gone are the days when prenups were whispered behind closed doors. Today, they’re part of the narrative, especially among the world’s elite. Consider this: Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s reported prenup includes multimillion-dollar payouts based on the number of children they have.

Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are rumored to have signed one even before saying “yes,” while Ariana Grande’s split with Dalton Gomez was sealed with the terms of a prenup so precise, it might as well have had a soundtrack.

These agreements aren’t signs of distrust, they’re symbols of clarity. A prenup says, “I love you, but I also love my legacy.” It’s not cynical… it’s smart, sexy, and strategic.

Bollywood’s Quiet Clause

Back home in India, where wedding ceremonies often last longer than the marriages, prenups are still in legal limbo. While they’re not formally recognized under most personal laws, couples in cities like Mumbai and Delhi are quietly drafting them under the Indian Contract Act. Goa is currently the only Indian state that formally upholds prenuptial agreements, thanks to its Portuguese civil code.

Though rarely admitted in public, whispers in Bollywood’s corridors suggest that high-profile couples like Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas, or Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh, may have explored some form of financial understanding before their weddings. In a world of brand collaborations, endorsements, and multimillion-dollar portfolios, it’s not just sensible, it’s survival.

A.R. Rahman and ex wife Saira

In one case, music maestro A.R. Rahman reportedly had a spiritual ‘pre-agreement’ with his wife Saira Banu, an emotional understanding, if not a legal one. It may not have been a prenup by Western standards, but it was certainly a pact of protection.

The Cost of No Clause

Let’s be brutally honest, not having a prenup can cost you. Just ask Paul McCartney, whose divorce from Heather Mills cost him nearly $50 million, or Tiger Woods, whose high-profile breakup left him not only emotionally drained but financially bruised.

In 2025, a rising NFL rookie was burned so badly in a divorce sans prenup, a celebrity divorce lawyer actually offered to draft free agreements for new athletes. That’s how crucial and common-sense they’ve become.

The New Manifesto of Modern Marriage

Today’s prenup isn’t the chilly, transactional document it once was. It’s the ultimate declaration of mutual respect. It says, “I’m here for love, not leverage.” It empowers both partners to walk into a relationship with open eyes, protected futures, and clear expectations.

And make no mistake, women are leading this shift, demanding not just equal emotional footing, but equal financial voice. Prenups are not just a man’s game anymore. They are gender-neutral shields in a world where love and lifestyle don’t always align.

TheGlitz Verdict: Love Boldly. Protect Smartly.

As the world moves faster and fortunes rise and fall on headlines and hashtags, the new-age couple knows that love doesn’t mean leaving your brain at the altar. Whether you’re a billionaire like Bezos or building your empire one hustle at a time, a prenup is no longer taboo, it’s trendsetting.

So here’s to passion with paperwork. To romance that’s real but not reckless. To marrying the one you love and still keeping your coins where your contracts are. …Because in 2025, the ultimate aphrodisiac? Power. And nothing says powerful like a prenup with your name on it.

If you're in the city, go... Ronak Maheshwari, who started Paro, wasn't trying to shake things up or make noise. He just wanted a bar that felt like you could actually stay awhile. The bar boasts a rooftop where the old city sprawls out below you, offers cocktails that aren't just for show, and creates a vibe that doesn't require you to perform. Rajeev Mokashi caught up with Ronak to talk about how Paro became what Jaipur's modern Indian bar scene was quietly waiting for.
