In a surprising turn of events, Sia's estranged husband, Dan Bernad, is seeking a staggering $250,856 per month in spousal support amid their ongoing divorce proceedings. According to the court filing, Bernad claims he and Sia lived a "luxurious and upper-class lifestyle," spending over $400,000 a month on extravagances like private jet travel, fine dining, and full-time staffers.
Bernad, a former radiation oncologist, says he has almost nothing in his bank account and no income coming in. He explains that he gave up his medical career at Sia's request, as she disliked his long hours at the hospital. The couple then opened a ketamine clinic together in Los Angeles in 2021, but Bernad says Sia has now cut off funding for the clinic, leaving him unable to return to his previous profession.
In the court filing, Bernad argues that he is "financially dependent on Sia, the breadwinner in our marriage," and that the court should order her to pay the substantial spousal support to maintain their established standard of living. Additionally, he is requesting that Sia contribute at least $500,000 towards his legal fees during the divorce proceedings.
