The woman with whom Mel Gibson is currently embroiled in a custody battle turned down a $16 million settlement offer hoping to get more cash.Oksana Grigorieva wanted $20 million to keep quiet about the secret tapes revealing her baby daddy Mel Gibson to be a complete psycho, but says as the mother of his child she deserves no less.
When Mel and Oksana shacked up together in 2009, he had her sign a contract saying she was "not entitled to any of the actor's fortune under the terms of a 2009 cohabitation agreement that said she would get only a year's free rent in a Sherman Oaks home Gibson owned and a Dodge Charger if they split," according to the LA Times.
After Lucia was born and Mel went cuckoo again, Oksana got herself a lawyer and asked for a $20 million settlement. Mel counter-offered $18; the couple eventually agreed to $16 million, including joint custody of Lucia, money for both mother and daughter and a Steinway piano -- a special gift to Oksana, a classical pianist.
Negotiations fell apart when Oksana wouldn't give up the tapes, according to sources.
"You don't call. You don't accept my invitation to come. You hand tapes around & jeopardize us all," Mel texted on the day of the proposed $18 million settlement.
"I wouldn't have played ur messages if u were keeping ur word," Oksana responded.
