Their daughter's wedding preparation had also drawn a lot of attention from their neighbors, who claimed to have been affected by the construction work.

An insider called the ceremony "over-the-top" and noted the whole process has been frustrating.

"It's totally over-the-top. Just incredible extravagance and unpleasant for the neighbors and the wildlife that made their home on the farm," the source revealed.

Bill recently announced that he would be leaving just $10 million to each of his kids, Jennifer, 25, Rory, 21, and Phoebe, 18, despite being one of the richest men in the world, which Melinda is reportedly angling to change following their split.

"I definitely think leaving kids massive amounts of money is not a favor to them," he explained his decision. "Some people disagree with this, but Melinda and I feel good about it."
