Dog custody is new divorce sticking point as ‘One Tree Hill’ star slapped with $10K-per-day fine: ‘It’s becoming worse and worse’
NY Post
We’re entering the dog days of divorce.
Separations have always been ugly when it comes to who gets the house and the kids — but warring couples can also go barking mad over who keeps the dog.
“One Tree Hill” star Shantel VanSanten has reached a wild divorce agreement with her ex-husband Victor Webster over the custody of their canine, Nova.
The actress, 38, will be forced to pay her former spouse a staggering $10,000 per day if she keeps the rescue pooch in her possession for longer than three weeks at a time, court docs obtained by Page Six reveal.
VanSanten — who has also appeared in other hit shows including “The Boys” and “FBI” — must also provide frequent updates about Nova’s whereabouts to Webster, 51, whenever the canine is in her care.
But while the agreement may seem extreme, it’s far from unusual, according to one Big Apple divorce attorney.
