Sia Retains Custody of Son in Los Angeles Court Ruling

Singer Sia has won a significant early victory in her custody battle against her estranged husband, Daniel Bernad, over their one-year-old son, Somersault Wonder, known as Summi. Bernad filed an emergency court request seeking full custody, alleging that Sia is struggling with drug addiction and is an unfit parent. However, a Los Angeles judge denied his request, ruling that Bernad failed to present any new or compelling evidence beyond what was already considered in a prior custody agreement, which granted Sia primary custody and Bernad supervised visitation rights. Sia's attorney successfully argued that the emergency relief was unjustified, and a court document noted that most of Bernad's claims were known when the original custody arrangement was made. An insider revealed that Sia, who has historically guarded her privacy and used a mask in public, is devastated by the public exposure of her private family matters amid the ongoing divorce and custody proceedings. The couple married in December 2022, welcomed their son in March 2024, and Sia filed for divorce in March 2025.
