Diana Ross married Robert Ellis Silberstein in 1971, and together they produced two daughters, including Tracee Ellis Ross (Golden Globe-winning star of Black-ish) and Chudney Silberstein. Diana's eldest daughter, Rhonda, was raised by Silberstein, but her biological father is Motown Records founder Berry Gordy.
Silberstein is a music executive but was jobless when he and Ross met, according to People. Throughout their marriage, he managed other successful acts like Chaka Khan and Billy Preston, but he also learned a lot from Ross about the music industry. Silberstein told People in 1976, "She's been in the business a lot longer than I have and I respect her advice."
After the divorce, the two remained friends, even going on vacation together with their daughters. Though Silberstein seems to have kept a lower profile since his divorce, he continues to work in the music industry and worth about $50 million, per Celebrity Net Worth. It's a relatively small amount compared to Ross' estimated $250 million net worth, but still, nothing to shake a stick at, and certainly more than enough to cover their daughter Chudney's lavish 2015 wedding in Hawaii.
