The 15 Hottest CEO Wives

Being a CEO has all kinds of perks, from a really good parking space to the company jet. But perhaps the best part of being the big boss (other than making millions in severance) is that many women look at you in a completely different way than they look at the mailroom guy.

So it's no surprise chief executive types end up settling down with women who are as beautiful on the outside as they surely must be within. With that, we present Asylum's take on the hottest CEO wives. If you happen to be a powerful corporate boss whose wife isn't listed, we simply couldn't find the right picture. In other words, please don't have us fired.

The 15 Hottest CEO Wives

14. Erica Baxter James Packer is Australia's richest man worth an estimated $7 billion. However, we'd like to think it was just his sparkling personality that helped him land this model/singer.

13. Willow Bay With a name that sounds like a Disney character, it's not surprisingly that the TV personality attracted the head of the Walt Disney Company, Robert Iger.

12. Kathy Freston The self-help guru and former Ford model still knows how to strike a pose. Not pictured is her television executive hubby Tom Freston, who was Viacom's CEO between 2005 and 2006.

10. Salma Hayek After breaking up for a stretch, the actress married PPR CEO François-Henri Pinaultin in early 2009. The pair have a child together, but it's virtually impossible that the youngster could grow up to be luckier than her father.

6. Ellen Barkin The actress and Revlon boss Ron Perlman were the toast of high society between 2000 and 2006. Their mix of beauty and business acumen proved combustible, and they are still suing each other two years after the divorce.

Women today just flat out disgust me. They are all money grubbing. Notice how pretty much all are younger,much younger than their mates. All for the love of money. Is it really worth it. Women I have talked to in these kind of relationships regret doing it. And also agree w/me. So if you want to chastize me for saying this you must be one that sits at home and lets your husband make all the money. Maybe every once in a while,oops,have a baby so you don't have to work and then when you get tired of being with someone that is much older, you have that connection that to thier money. Make your own money! I am a happily married man to a hard working female too. So I'm not a miserable divorced,single bitter guy.

What a load of crap. Just because a woman is with an older man doesn't mean she's after his money. I'm personally married to a wonderful guy who is 12 years older than I am. We've been married for 8 years and money never had anything to do with it. I made my own money before I met him and still do today. I don't sit at home and let my husband make all the money, I have my own career that I absolutely enjoy, I'm not suddenly becoming pregnant to keep him around, in fact we don't want or have any kids. Should we decide to divorce,not that it will ever happen, I don't want anything of his including his money. I am actually very offended that one could stereotype all women who have older spouses as gold diggers. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, I'm just saying that not all of us are like that. We always hear about the high profile splits that involve large amounts of money and women obviously gold digging, but we never hear of the ordinary people who are in these relationships with spouses that are much older. Just something to think about.

You refer to yourself as a man? If you were a real man, you would not expect your wife to put aside the responsibility of raising YOUR children to go out and "earn" money too! She is the one earning your money!! You know, that money you spend on daycare and nannies!! WAKE UP!!

I don't recall any of these women being stay at homes, just taking their husbands money. Most of them are working women, and probably make a larger income then you.

Also you said "Women today just flat out disgust me. They are all money grubbing."

That makes your wife one doesn't it or is she not a woman? Watch throwing a gender under one's assumption. Also most men know what they are getting into as well. Shouldn't the more sick card be played on the old guy going for a girl that could be his grand child.

Did you really look at those women? The majority are not young chicks. I'm in my forties, and with the exception of Melanis Knauss-Trump, most of those women are close to my age and over. Oh, by the way, when these MEN married these alleged gold diggers - don't you know the man knows what she maybe after, because all he's after is young poontang? If she has a baby - no bother, he has lots of kids and lots of money so no big deal. These men are not victims. They know exactly what they are getting into. If men feel women are taking advantage of them? Keep the zipper up, wear a condom, or demand modern medical science come up with a pill for you so you can control procreation from your end.

Wow..."Justme"...it sounds like you are just bitter...in lieu of being a bitter, divorced man. First of all why is it any of your business if a young woman and older man that has money want to get together. Second of all...what makes you think that Donald Trump is a man of high moral values. I can tell you from personal, close, observation that he is not. He likes the power money brings him and the superficial respect it gives him. He is all about Donald...trust me he's not looking out for her or his children's best interest. And I'm sure you have not born and raised a child as well as kept a household either. Otherwise, you wouldn't be so quick to demean the tradional women's work of raising a family and keeping house. Which, by the way, is a lot of work...and babies dont' just "woops" pop out you arrogant jerk.

Well Justme, on the other hand, these guys have worked to get their trophy wives. Would you deny them what they bought. Maybe you should also be disgusted with the men for having to buy a beautiful wife as they wouldn't get one without the money. Seems it's a tradeoff for both of them.

You sound like you would want one of these trophys yourself but your just too poor to buy one.

Come on people! Out of all the exec's "marriages" especially if they are past their first one, most of the men(sorry to pick on the weaker sex here) want "arm candy" so all I have to say is you get what you deserve. Most of these young women who "hook up and snag" these older men are in it for one reason only! MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!! Forget the prenup bullshit agreements cause if the wifeypooh has a good lawyer, hubby will be paying out the wazhoo whether he likes it or not. I'm sorry but if women in these situations want any ounce of respect from their sisters on this one, show us you have a brain to start, then show us you are a proud successful businesswoman in your own right. Then and only then would I cut you some slack as I entered a career field that was dominated mostly by men as a fire dept paramedic/ff and did NOT expect to be treated differently because I didn't have male genitalia. I can almost also guarentee that these wives have a piece of ass on the side!

Hi Nonya. I have to disagree with you on this one. we need to quit being so superficial and assume that men are only after beauty and women after money in the older man younger woman scenarios. I'm sure it is true in a lot of cases but there can also be true love involved and maybe the younger lady has a great character or is a good listener. You can't really judge these things unless you spend a lot of time with the couple. I had the hottest young girlfriend but after a couple of weeks I was bored with her looks although my friends saw her as stunning. I stayed with her for a long time bc she made me laugh. I am not considered wealthy by the standards of the article but I know the girl loved me and I loved her but things didn't work out bc of her family. She is now unhappily married and a friend offered to get us togehter but I declined

As if this is a shock? Family values are no longer at the forefront and what used to be admirable as a marriage that lasts for years - check out Robert Redford, outstanding man, married for a loooong time and is respected vs. men that need arm candy at their side. This has always been (and always will be) the majority of MENS (and, from this article, CEO's as well) manner of feeling ultimately superior to all of us (place a pole dancer on your arm and you have resorted yourself to something inferior which really does not match up to your "CEO" status, does it?). And, for any woman that marries one of these CEO's - brava, you have hit the jackpot...until the next newer and younger pole dancer comes around. Not the kind of job security (errr rather marriage values) to teach the youth of today that need the moral and proper upbringing to turn this country in the right direction.

To flaunt this is ridiculous and shows all of us that marriage and family are a dying entity.

It is no wonder there are so many problems with todays youth - nice examples you all have led (NOT!!!!)

I agree with just me ! Hikari it's not a load of crap because all you see on reality T.V. and out in todays world are more and more women seeking wealthy guys.Maybe not in your case but it sure happens alot ! My cousins wife Tina had a baby so she could sit home on her lazy ass ! That's not how things should be especially with the way prices are in todays world. I just married to a 14 year friend and she wants to work to help out our financial situation so one day we can be better prepared to bring a child or two in to this world. I would prefer her to relax and let me be the bread maker but it's a tough world no matter what a person makes ! So when just me said that women discust him he's not wrong because alot are money grubbing whores with no sense of independence and it's a real shame. Mostly women movie stars are like that and the sad thing is that us regular guys with an average income have great hearts with lots of love to share and girls being that way make it a real sad situation for the good guys in the world. Look at kim kardashian she's a typical chic who just wants money to them love can be bought but my love can never be and I'm a lucky man because I found my soul mate for life.

I am younger than my husband by 14 1/2 years! He is handsome, caring and not the very rich ceo either, but he does make great money as well as have benefits to match when he retires! As for me, the younger wife....I came into this relationship for LOVE, not money! I graduated from USC, have my own career, make great money and WE BOTH combine our incomes to have the best we can get in life...we have two adorable, beautiful girls and are very happy in our lives as well as marriage. Some women do it for money and then there are the ones who do it for LOVE. I have no regrets, all my close friends have mates who are within their age range. In the end though, in my opinion, its better for the man to be older than the woman. Let's face it, older men LOVE younger women, if they can get their hands on one! And, I don't blame an older man for wanting an younger woman either!
