Sold her company to Coach last year for 2.4 B dollars.

Something smells rotten in Denmark.

She sold her company last year for like 2 billion. I guess money isn't everything...

Damn, every chick in my high school had a Kate Spade backpack or purse.

Internet says Net worth $150 million. DAMN.


ETA:

Apparently that's an old figure and its way more.

I'm guessing watering down your life's work and then selling it off to Coach who watered it down even more probably wasn't fulfilling

I imagine there is more, of course (depression likely), but I wonder if that move contributed to this.

Well, mental health issues don’t exactly discriminate. That said, they never saw any of that money. Her and her husband cashed out of the company some time ago.

Ask your wife, girlfriend, sister or mother.

I was going to make a joke about overpriced Kate Spade clothes, but suicide is just sad.

Context much? I was just commenting that they never saw money from the recent sale. Never said she wasn’t wealthy.

And the point still stands, money doesn’t buy your mental health.
