Russell “Big Block” Spencer Calls Kandi Burruss Out Over Child Support Dispute, Reality Star Responds: I Don’t Care How Well I’m Doing, I Still Need That Money You Owe Me

Block Entertainment CEO Russell “Big Block” Spencer is opening up about his old affair with Xscape singer and Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kandi Burruss.

The affair reportedly dates back to the 1990s and resulted in the birth of their 19-year-old daughter Riley Burruss, who was born in 2002. In an interview with VladTV, Big Block said his and Kandi Burruss’ relationship was never going to work for multiple reasons—primarily because he already had a wife and two daughters.

“Just dealing with em through some sideline sh*t, it wasn’t gone never work like that, because it wasn’t solid. The foundation wasn’t built like that.”

He continued,

“I already had a family going into that situation. Then I’m bringing in another daughter into this situation, and I wasn’t gone leave home. And that’s where the turbulence came in.”

Big Block then revealed his initial reaction to Kandi Burruss’ pregnancy and shared that the “My Little Secret” singer “handled her business” by calling his house—a move he was not cool with. In response to whether or not Kandi knew about his family, Big Block replied,

“Absolutely.”

The record label CEO also gave insight into the relationship he has with Riley Burruss, saying he believes a lot of their issues stem from jealousy on her part. He said,

“We cool. We’re coming along. I don’t know what happened between 10 [through] 15 [years of age].

He went on to say,

“I think a lot of people get in her head. There’s a lot of jealousy because all my kids live with me. I’ve got three daughters and three boys. Every last one of them lives with me except Riley. Every last one of my kids lives with me from when they’re born until they graduate except Kandi’s [daughter]. I’ve got an accomplished name, a lot of stuff. And I think it’s a lot of jealousy because Riley wasn’t in that situation because her mom put me on child support.”

Kandi and Riley previously addressed Big Block’s failure to pay child support on RHOA. They battled it out in a child custody case, in which Kandi won. In the interview with Vlad, Big Block addressed his child support dispute with Kandi and said,

“How do you have more money than me, [my other children’s] mom, and you put me on child support? I raised kids that weren’t by us, and [Kandi] knew this. That was one of her attractions to me. I raised kids that weren’t by us. Why wouldn’t I raise mine?”

He added,

“I don’t need nobody to tell me to raise [my kids]. I never have. And I paid all the way.”

 

Kandi has since seemingly responded to her ex’s now-viral interview. In a post shared to her IG stories, the multi-talented businesswoman said,

“I don’t care how well I’m doing, I still need that money you owe me.”

The post added,

“Don’t BLOCK your blessings by not doing right by your children.”

Kandi’s friend and fellow singer Monica also appears to have responded to what Big Block had to say and shared a post to her own IG stories uplifting Kandi and her daughter.
