René Elizondo Jr. and Janet Jackson

René Elizondo Jr., a dancer and director, met Janet Jackson when he worked as a backup dancer for her sister La Toya in 1986. They fell in love and got married in 1991. But after nine years, their marriage ended, and they got divorced.

René Elizondo Jr. received $10 million as part of the divorce agreement when they split. Later, Janet Jackson married Wissam Al Mana, a wealthy businessman, between 2014 and 2017. With her fortune of around $180 million, Janet's choices show her independence, not gold-digging.
