For example, let's say you were close to your grandmother and when she died she gave you a necklace to keep. Well, if your ex-spouse wants it all, I think it's unfair for him to have it.

It's not just celebrities who get prenuptial agreements, it's everyone. If you feel comfortable getting a prenup in case your marriage ends, that's okay too.
