Casino exec Elaine Wynn, major shareholder of Wynn Resorts, dies at 82

Billionaire Elaine Wynn, who worked with her then-husband Steve Wynn to launch Wynn resorts, died Monday at the age of 82.

Elaine and Steve Wynn co-founded the Mirage Resorts in 1976 and Wynn Resorts in 2000. They went on to build the Wynn Las Vegas, which at the time was the most expensive resort ever built and became the most profitable in the gambling mecca, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.

The two first married in 1963 and were divorced in 1986. They remarried in 1991 and divorced again in 2010.
