According to the report:

Our sources say the Shatners are still negotiating the financial terms — but one thing won’t be an issue … spousal support. We’re told, per the terms of the prenup, neither party will receive any support from the other.

The legendary “Star Trek” actor’s marriage to Elizabeth is his fourth one. He was previously married to Nerine Kidd, Marcy Lafferty and Gloria Rand. He and Elizabeth never had kids and he only had children with Rand, Leslie, 61, Lisabeth, 59, and Melanie, 55, per Page Six.

Shatner, who is very active on social media, as of this publication, had yet to comment on the divorce reports.
