Tyrese Believes $20K A Month Is Too Much For Child Support In Divorce Case With Samantha Lee Gibson
As it was previously reported, Samantha Lee Gibson filed for divorce from her husband Tyrese Gibson after nearly four years of marriage. A few days ago, the two confirmed the news and said that it was a “painful and significant” decision to go their separate ways.

While the two didn’t share the exact reason for their big split, TMZ reports that in the September petition, Samantha alleges Tyrese had, just a few weeks earlier, cut her off financially, and locked her and their 2-year-old daughter, Soraya, out of the family’s Georgia home. However, Tyrese is calling BS, according to TMZ.
In the docs he filed, the entertainer denies kicking them out. In addition to that, he admits to having major issues with Samantha’s demand for $20,000 per month in child support. He calls that number “unreasonably high,” the news site notes.
As for the reason for their split, Tyrese says when he flew home from a movie set in late August, Samantha confronted him which turned into a 3-hour long conversation where she reportedly threatened to call cops. Tyrese says he left the house to avoid a bigger problem and because he didn’t want police to get involved due to “multiple public incidents involving police brutality and racially motivated killings of unarmed African American people,” TMZ notes.
Now, despite all of that, it looks like the two were somewhat able to get past that situation and remain cordial because just last week, Samantha posted a special birthday message to Tyrese who she labeled a good Dad and has absolutely “no regrets.”
