Rather excessive pre-divorce settlement (10)

I believe the answer is:

overpriced

'rather excessive' is the definition.

'pre-divorce settlement' is the wordplay.
'settlement' indicates an anagram.
'pre'+'divorce'='predivorce'
'predivorce' is an anagram of 'OVERPRICED'.

(Other definitions for overpriced that I've seen before include "Steep" , "too expensive" , "with excessive charge" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
