Tyrese Gibson Arrested for Child Support Contempt

Tyrese Gibson has been arrested in Fulton County, Georgia, for contempt of court due to his failure to pay court-ordered child support of $10,000 a month for his daughter, Soraya, with ex-wife Samantha Lee. During a recent court hearing, Judge Kevin Farmer determined that Tyrese owed $73,000, which includes $7,500 for Samantha's attorney fees. Tyrese had been paying approximately $2,200 a month and has expressed his belief that the financial demands are unjust, citing a prenup and alleging bias from the judge and Samantha's lawyers. He faces a contentious legal battle, having previously attempted to remove Judge Farmer from the case. Despite his arrest, reports indicate Tyrese is working to gather the funds to secure his release. The situation highlights ongoing tensions from Tyrese's divorce, finalized in 2020, and the complexities of celebrity child support cases.
