Post Malone Challenges Custody Jurisdiction in Utah over California Claims

Post Malone is engaged in a legal dispute with his ex-fiancée, Jamie Park, over custody of their 3-year-old daughter, with Post seeking to have the case heard in Utah while Park wants it in Los Angeles. Post's attorney, Laura Wasser, argues that the child and her primary caretaker, the nanny, reside in Utah, where the daughter is enrolled in various activities and has a pediatrician, asserting Park is misrepresenting the child's residency by enrolling her in California programs to influence the court. Park filed for sole physical custody in Los Angeles, citing that the child has lived with her there since November 2024, while Post filed first in Utah. The dispute may hinge partly on differences in child support laws, as California courts are perceived to be more generous. Post Malone was reportedly served custody papers just before his Coachella performance, adding urgency to the ongoing battle. Since their split in 2024, Post has been seen with a new girlfriend, while the custody fight remains unresolved.
