Courteney Cox Arquette and David Arquette didn't have a pre-nuptial agreement.

The couple announced earlier this month they were separating after 11 years of marriage and now the actor has revealed they didn't sign a contract to divide up their assets before they tied the knot.

Former 'Friends' star Courteney is rumoured to be worth $100 million so David - who has a six-year-old daughter, Coco, with the actress - could be in line to receive half her fortune.

After telling radio DJ Howard Stern they didn't have an official pre-wedding agreement, the shock jock said to him: "Can you count to 50?"

While it seems the couple are to divorce, David said he "loves Courteney with all his heart" and his "wedding ring" is his most "valuable" possession.

This is not the first time David has spoken about the split and recently said he had "shared too much" information about the break-up.

The 39-year-old actor has apologised for being too honest on Howard's radio show, in which he revealed Courteney had tired of being a "mother" to him.

He wrote on his twitter page: "Thank you all for your love and support at this time. I'm trying figuring out how to be the best person I can be, but it's been a process of trial and error.

"I went on Howard Stern to provide clarity and honesty about what I'm experiencing but while doing that I shared too much ... it's alright for me to be honest about my own feelings but in retrospect some of the information I provided involved others and for that I am sorry and humbled. Life is a process of spiritual evolution. (sic)"
