Interpretation
Framed as a wry one-liner, the remark treats marriage as an expensive transaction and suggests that, for the speaker, the financial and emotional costs of remarriage outweigh its benefits. By proposing to simply “give her a house” to a woman he doesn’t like, the joke compresses the perceived downside of marriage—asset transfer, settlement, obligation—into a single exaggerated gesture. The humor depends on cynicism and hyperbole, but it also gestures toward a broader celebrity narrative: high-profile relationships can become entangled with money, property, and public scrutiny. As a quotation, it functions less as a serious thesis about marriage than as a self-deprecating, tabloid-friendly quip about romantic risk and wealth.
