\n\tTheir divorce proceedings were stuffed with such shocking and salacious allegations, it made TMZ look like The Journal of Pediatrics. But now David Geffen<\/a> and his ex-husband, former go-go dancer David Armstrong, have apparently made their peace \u2014 or at least enough of it to take a boat ride together.<\/p>\n

\n\tSources tell Rambling that the two recently met aboard the Rising Sun, Geffen\u2019s 453-foot yacht \u2014 82 rooms, basketball court, swimming pool \u2014 which has been moored since late April in the western Mediterranean. What exactly the two said to each other nobody knows, but given how savagely they had gone after each other in court the past year, it\u2019s hard to imagine it was all hugs and giggles.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tArmstrong, 33, a onetime porn star who sometimes goes by the name Donovan Michaels, accused Geffen, 83, of grooming him, controlling him and pressuring him to use drugs at parties aboard his massive yacht, which has ferried the likes of Oprah\u202fWinfrey, Bruce\u202fSpringsteen, Jeff Bezos and Goldman Sachs chairman Lloyd Blankfein. In his countersuit, an angry Geffen fired back that Armstrong had run up hundreds of thousands of dollars on Geffen\u2019s accounts for clothing and cosmetic procedures \u2014 and in the marriage\u2019s final months, a small fortune on male escorts. Both sides emphatically denied the other\u2019s claims.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tIn the end, on April\u202f13, some sort of amiable settlement was reached, though a Geffen friend was careful to note that \u201cthey are definitely not getting back together.\u201d The exact amount Geffen paid to Armstrong to conclude their 23-month marriage hasn\u2019t been revealed, although estimates range from $15 million to $30 million. While that may seem like a tidy sum, even some of Geffen\u2019s friends joke that it probably wasn\u2019t enough for putting up with the famously demanding billionaire.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cGeffen got off way too easy,\u201d says one. \u201cHe was constantly running around regaling everyone about Donovan\u2019s 9 inches. He should have at least walked away with $10 million an inch.\u201d<\/p>\n
