What could be sweeter? Wealth, beautiful looks, a beautiful house and beautiful children. Everything seems to be fine until one problem or another kicks in and ruins everything. The stress associated with the separation between a couple who were once in love can be very difficult and extremely trying. So come with us to dive into the life of one such man, Robert Herjavec; TV personality on the TV show Shark Tank.
We all hope to rise and reach the point where we have amassed a large amount of wealth. It is precisely this desire that fuels human existence on a daily basis. Some find this fulfillment in beliefs, power and most often money. It’s safe to say that Robert Herjavec has found his money, but only he can really answer that question. He was born in 1962 in Varaždin, Croatia.

When he was eight, his family left the country and moved to Canada where they eventually settled in Toronto. After a few difficult years, the rigors of adapting to a new culture and finding a livelihood, Herjavec graduated in 1984 with a double degree in political science and English from the University of Toronto. He worked for Logiquest, a company that sold IBM mainframe emulation cards, got fired in 1990, started his own company, BRAK Systems, out of his basement, and in March 2000 he sold the same company to AT&T Canada for $30.2 million.
He was involved while he was involved in Logiquest. Three years spent at home looking after his children ended in 2003 and he founded the Herjavec Group of which he is currently the CEO. He appeared on television for the show Dragons’ Den, a Canadian reality television show based on the format of the international Dragons’ Den franchise which began in Japan. He also did it for the show’s American equivalent, Shark Tank.
Robert Herjavec wife, divorce, daughter
Robert Herjavec and Diane Plese married in 1990, the same year he was fired from Logiquest and created his own company. They remained attached for twenty-five years and had three children together. They separated in 2014 and eventually divorced in 2016. The reason the couple decided to call it quits is really hard to pinpoint, as they have remained mum on the subject.
After the settlement was agreed with Diane, Herjavec, however, released this statement to TMZ, saying, “Human relationships are so difficult…I wish nothing but love and peace for our family in as we progress”. Now read what you can tell, but at least he had the courage to concede to the suicidal thoughts he was having when they decided to go their separate ways.
On Diane’s part, she’s as secretive as her ex-husband but she made the following comment in a 2010 interview with the National Post that Herjevac’s ability to always be optimistic started to irritate her a bit: It’s a bit irritating. Why can’t I be this happy all the time? Everything is positive and wonderful for him. He calls me Miss Negative, but that’s the reality,” she reportedly said.
Now, maybe the problem lies in different outlooks on life, but we can’t be sure. The final settlement agreement paid to Diane has not been made public, but for a man as wealthy as Herjevac, whose net worth is in the range of $200 million, your guess is as good as mine.
