The pair will split all of the actress’ earnings from her now-canceled NBC show, Smash, and will similarly go 50/50 on any income she may have earned from songs created during their marriage.

According to TMZ, the Scorpion star will get to keep her 2012 Mercedes-Benz M Class SUV, and Cokas will retain the 2013 Jeep Wrangler.

McPhee first filed for divorce in May 2014, seven months after she was spotted kissing her married Smash director, Michael Morris.

At the time, the American Idol alum stated that she and Cokas had been separated for a while when the incriminating photos were snapped. (Morris has since reconciled with his wife, actress Mary McCormack, with whom he shares three young daughters.)
