Houston billionaire Tilman Fertitta and longtime wife Paige have divorced, Forbes reported in its cover story featuring Fertitta among the nation’s wealthiest people.

The story, published Monday, said the 2017 split was amicable — Paige and their four children recently spent a week on Fertitta’s new 252-foot yacht — and Fertitta has been remarried for two years to Lauren Ware, formerly a litigation counsel for Landry’s.

Fertitta and his representatives did not dispute the report’s accuracy.

Feritta, hospitality mogul and owner of the Houston Rockets, ranked 158 on Forbes’ 400-person list with a net worth of $6.3 billion. Fertitta moved up in the ranking after boosting his net worth more than 50 percent. Last year, Fertitta ranked No. 181 with $4.1 billion.

He was one of five from the list to be featured with Forbes cover stories.

The story describes Fertitta as “a sharp financial engineer with a history of cutting the public into and out of his ventures and taking on and offloading debt at opportune moments.” It notes a pending merger slated to take his restaurant and casino empire public will increase his net worth to $8 billion.

Fertitta wants a property on the Las Vegas Strip and is already contemplating his next yacht, Forbes reported.
