Diamond Brown Seeks Increased Child Support from Chris Brown
Diamond Brown has filed a request with a judge for Chris Brown to provide at least $30,000 per month in child support for their four-year-old daughter, Lovely Symphani Brown.
As per court documents reviewed by TMZ, the model claims that the singer currently contributes approximately $7,000 monthly on a voluntary basis.
Diamond asserts that with Chris’s estimated net worth of $50 million, she believes his financial capabilities warrant a higher support amount. Consequently, her legal team has sought subpoenas for his bank statements and financial records, but his business managers have resisted these requests.
In an affidavit submitted in October, Diamond disclosed monthly earnings of roughly $1,500 from her social media activities and her work as an esthetician. She also proposed a budget exceeding $45,000 per month to cover expenses related to rent, food, childcare, clothing, and activities for Lovely.
Following the release of details from her October filing, Chris Brown responded via Instagram Stories, stating, “I LITERALLY PAY FOR EVERYTHING, her cars (2), her HOUSE, SCHOOLING, MEDICAL, and 10K a month.”
In a rebuttal on TikTok, Diamond countered, “You don’t give me $10,000 a month,” indicating that she and her legal team possess records of his payments. She claimed that his contributions decreased after she began dating someone else, labeling this behavior as “financial abuse.”
While she acknowledged his provision of a home and vehicles, Diamond contested his interpretation of shared parenting responsibilities. “You think in your mind 50/50 parenting is set because you pay financially… No, that’s not how it works,” she articulated.
She emphasized, “That is not all it takes to parent. She needs your presence. It is not the other parent’s job to make sure the other parent shows up.”
The custody conflict between Chris and Diamond began in April when Diamond sought legal and physical custody of Lovely, proposing visitation rights for Chris. Chris later sought joint legal and physical custody. Lovely, their only child together, was born on January 7, 2022.
