Update: Flavor Flav Owes Nearly $80,000 In Back Child Support For Newly Discovered 3-Year-Old
Update: According to reports, Flavor Flav is making monthly child support payments for the 3-year-old child, Jordan, whom he recently learned was his, but he still owes the mother of his son a lot of money for back pay. Reportedly, Flav took a DNA test in 2019, shortly after Jordan was born, and learned that he was the dad. A few years later in 2021, the entertainer and the child’s mother reached an agreement that he would pay $3,000 a month in child support going forward. However, by the time Flav started paying the child was 2-years-old and the mother had incurred various expenses.
Reports claim that as part of the child support agreement, the “Step Back” emcee agreed to pay the child’s expenses for the first 2 years, totaling $78,704. Despite missing his first payment of the $78k last month, Flav is adamant he will pay the money off in its entirety. In addition to that, he claims to also be paying down his ex’s $100,000 attorney’s fees and has allegedly paid $40k off already.
Original Story: Congratulations to Flavor Flav! The 63-year-old is now the father of 8. According to reports, after taking a paternity test, Flav recently discovered he has a 3-year-old son.
Reportedly, the boy’s name is Jordan and his mother is Flav’s ex manager, a woman named Kate. Kate and Flav are said to have been romantic at one point while working together.
Child support and a custody arrangement have not yet been established, with a hearing taking place later this year.
Congrats to Flavor Flav!
