If comedy is tragedy plus time, stand-up comic Kathy Griffin will have some new material any day now.
The My Life on the D-List funny lady told CNN's Larry King that her ex-husband, Matt Moline, stole $72,000 from her, leading to their divorce. The interview, which was filmed last week for Larry King Live, airs Monday, July 10.
Griffin says that Moline, whom she divorced in May, stole her bank cards and siphoned money from her account.
"My ex-husband, without my knowledge, was sneaking into my wallet when I was asleep in the mornings and taking my ATM cards of my own private accounts and withdrawing money," Griffin says. "That money totaled $72,000. And he was systematically [stealing] over about a year and a half."
Griffin also tells King that the couple attended couple therapy but could never get past the issue.
Moline released a rebuttal statement saying he resented that Griffin was talking about their personal business.
"It saddens me that she would choose to make such accusations at this time. I have no intention of engaging in a public debate over private matters," Moline said in the statement.

he deserved the money for being with her that long, hell he deserved more than that.
How can you not realize you are missing 72K? I don't care how much or how little money you have, you know when it is missing.<br />

Mad_Buck - your posts are all the same, please come up with some new material and stop cutting and pasting the same inane comment about every headline.
ohh come on!<br />
How many a-list stars do you hear dishing about their parents and hubbies?<br />
<br />
And you still love them! So why not kathy?
It was really unnecessary for Kathy G to put this out on her ex...proves she belongs on a D-list! She must have felt the need to answer questions no one is asking in hopes of getting some tabloid interested in her.
Hey Buck, that's way out of line. He put her in a spot where she had to do something, say something to explain why the reconciliaton didn't take.<br />

More than enough people are noticing Kathy Griffin. She just sold out three nights in LA. I don't see many other comics doing that.
Because the more people notice her, the more she loves herself.
