PORTSMOUTH — “Da Vinci Code” author Dan Brown of Rye has settled the $150 million lawsuit that was filed by his ex-wife, Blythe Brown, over accusations he hid assets during the couple’s 2018 divorce, according to court records.

The couple filed a motion in Rockingham Superior Court on Monday to have the lawsuit dismissed. This motion comes two weeks after the couple signaled they were negotiating a settlement, according to court records. The details of the settlement are not public. An attempt to obtain comment from Brown wasn’t immediately successful.
