Socialite settles divorce suit with Indonesian tycoon

Singaporean socialite Jamie Chua, who had been seeking S$450,000 (RM1.1 million) a month in maintenance from her husband, settled her suit on Tuesday.

She and her estranged husband, Indonesian tycoon Nurdian Cuaca, agreed to an amicable settlement which was recorded in the High Court before Justice Tay Yong Kwang.

The terms are confidential, but the deal also meant the court lifted a freeze on the S$93 million (RM232.5 million) worth of assets belonging to Cuaca that had been in force since the start of this year.

The deal marks the end of a high-profile divorce suit that threatened to expose the couple's personal lifestyles to the public glare.
