Answer:

$0 for both of them

Explanation:

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 excluded the deduction of alimony payment. This means that any alimony payment made to a spouse (if the divorce was settled after January 1, 2018) is not deductible anymore. nor it will be included in the gross income of the spouse that receives it. Basically, the IRS doesn't consider them anymore.
