## Summary

Court filings say oil billionaire Sid Bass offered his former partner Oona Sperr $50 million over ten years, plus lifelong security for her elderly mother, if Sperr agreed to leave his life and sign a non-disclosure agreement. The offer was rejected, and the former couple are now in settlement talks as Sperr pursues a lawsuit seeking $400 million.

Sperr, 64, says Bass, 84, ended their ten-year relationship in 2024 and failed to honour financial promises; she also accuses his wife, Althea Bass, of interfering in their relationship. Bass denies the allegations and says the suit should be dismissed, while his wife has asked for claims against her to be dropped. The filings describe security for Sperr’s mother as including alarms, monitoring and a staffed post around the clock.
