Mathew Knowles: $2,485 a month
According to TMZ, in February 2013, superstar Beyonce’s dad and former Destiny’s Child manager Mathew Knowles was ordered to pay his former girlfriend Alexsandra Wright $12,000 a month for child support. However, the monthly payments were reduced to $2,485 earlier this year, after Knowles demonstrated he made significantly less income.
Knowles scored a second victory when he convinced the judge he had been overpaying Wright all along — arguing he should only have been paying $2,485 a month– which implied an overpayment of $110,000.
TMZ reports the judge agreed with Knowles, and gave him child-support credit that allows him not to pay Wright anything for the next three and a half years. Wright was receiving $300 a month in food stamps, according to TMZ.
Stevie J
Music producer and reality star Stevie J has been involved in an ongoing battle with an ex-girlfriend over child-support payments for their two children.
Stevie J owes more than a million dollars in back payments, and he was recently arrested for failing to pay support to the mother of one of his children, Carol Antoinette Bennett.
