The Oscar nominee recently revealed that she owns a piece of The Simpsons, following her 1991 divorce from Sam Simon, who developed the Fox series with creator Matt Groening and James L. Brooks in 1989.
“My ex-husband was Sam Simon, who created The Simpsons,” noted Tilly on this week’s episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. “I was married to him for seven years, we were together for about 10 years. When we got divorced, I got a piece of The Simpsons in the divorce settlement.”
She added, “Nobody knew that The Simpsons was going to go on for trillions of year. So every day — honestly, every day — I’m like, ‘Thank you, Sam.'”
Tilly reportedly got 30% of Simon’s net proceeds from the Fox series in the divorce, according to Radar.
