Stevie Wonder’s Ex Claims He Promised Her The Home She’s Lived In Rent-Free For Nearly 40 Years-Calls His Lawyers ‘R@cist Cold- Blooded’

Stevie Wonder’s Ex Claims He Promised Her The Home She’s Lived In Rent-Free For Nearly 40 Years-Calls His Lawyers ‘R@cist Cold- Blooded’

Stevie Wonder’s former fiancée, Carmen Efferson, reportedly never imagined their decades-long relationship would end in a legal battle over the home she has occupied since 1988.

According to TMZ, sources close to Efferson say she was blindsided by the music legend’s decision to file an eviction lawsuit, especially considering their romantic history.

Efferson reportedly told friends that Wonder promised the Los Angeles property belonged to her. However, she never received an official deed transferring ownership.

The house has been her longtime residence, even serving as a home for her late mother before her passing.

Wonder and Efferson reportedly began an on-again, off-again relationship during the 1980s and were once engaged. The singer also reportedly helped her secure opportunities in the music industry.

However, their history hasn’t prevented the legal dispute.

According to court documents, Wonder allowed Efferson to live rent-free under a verbal agreement beginning in July 1988. She was responsible for utilities.

The singer claims problems developed when Efferson allegedly refused to allow insurance-related inspections, potentially jeopardizing coverage.

His attorneys notified her to vacate by August 27, but she remained.

During their dispute, Efferson allegedly described Wonder’s legal representatives as “r@cist cold-blooded,” accusations the attorneys rejected.

Sources familiar with Wonder’s position insist the eviction concerns property safety and insurance requirements, not personal issues.

As of the latest reports, Efferson has not filed a formal court response. On Wednesday, she was photographed gardening outside the disputed property despite the ongoing lawsuit.
