Judith Giuliani

Last spring, divorce proceedings began for the Giulianis after 16 years of marriage, setting off a rancorous battle that, like most everything Mr. Giuliani touches, demanded attention. Despite the judge’s advice, a trial date has been set for January 2020, and the underlying reason, as it often does, stems from money. A primary issue is Mr. Giuliani’s current income. His wife believes that Mr. Giuliani left his law firm, Greenberg Traurig, in 2018, a month after the divorce was filed, and chose to work for President Trump pro bono in order to reduce any future alimony. In 2021 Nathan sold their Hamptons dream home — which she was awarded as part of their bitterly contested divorce settlement — for around $5 million. “Lucky Judy,” said a source familiar with the properties. “She scored. She got the two Hamptons homes, which went up in value during the pandemic. He got stuck with the Manhattan apartment, which needs a ton of work, and went down in value during lockdown.”
