Bearded Mel Gibson looks cheerful after judge rules he does not have to pay ex Oksana Grigorieva remainder of settlement

No wonder he's smiling.
Mel Gibson, 58, is reportedly worth $800 million, but he got a bit richer when a judge ruled he does not have to pay ex Oksana Grigorieva the $375,000 remaining on their settlement, according to a report on TMZ.
So it's no wonder the Braveheart actor looked positively giddy as he left Taverna Tony Greek restaurant in Malibu on Friday.

The gray-haired actor, sporting a full bead that was mostly white, was photographed alone as he left the eatery and got into his car.
He was casually dressed in a white T-shirt under a white-and-black checked shirt, untucked and with the sleeves rolled up, with jeans and black loafers.
He had a silver chain around his neck and had his sunglasses tucked into the collar of his T-shirt. And he carried his phone in his right hand and had a toothpick in his mouth.

Oksana chose to speak of her ex on Howard Stern's radio show back in October, a mistake that will cost her almost $400,000.
Under the 43-year-old's agreement with the Lethal Weapon actor, the singer - who has daughter Lucia, aged four, with the star - was not supposed to discuss him at all.
The beauty was receiving payments as part of the $750,000 settlement with Gibson after a nasty split in 2010 that included claims of physical abuse and a leaked tape recording where the actor belligerently berates her.

She had $375,000 left on her balance from Mel. It was not made clear how the mother will support her daughter once Mel stops sending checks.
Oksana didn't say much about Mel to Stern, but it was enough to make her bank account shrink.
When Howard told the pop star she's been through a rough time with the star and she just has to move on, Oksana referred to a 'painful and dark' phase of her life.
Howard pressed on, asking if Mel swept her off her feet in the beginning.

The LA resident, who has worked with Josh Groban, didn't say she couldn't talk about Mel, but instead admitted it was just too painful to talk about.
When the radio star then said the recordings of Mel's malicious rant is pretty astounding, the brunette added this bit: 'Life happens... I'm still catching up on the humor part.'
On Wednesday TMZ reported Oksana has filed for bankruptcy, claiming she has $10 to her name.
She reportedly turned down $15 million child custody settlement offer from Mel, but that claim has never been supported.
