Tyrese Gibson will have to pay $10,690 per month in child support to estranged wife Samantha Lee.
It's for the “best interest” of the exes’ 3-year-old daughter, Soraya Lee.
Gibson also has to maintain a life insurance plan of $1.9 million with Soraya as the beneficiary and Lee as the trustee.
Gibson and Lee have been ordered to split 50/50 any childcare or school and maintain health insurance.
Upon hearing the news, Gibson looked less than thrilled.
The judge addressed Gibson directly :
“I want you both to love your kid, and I want you both to tell your kid to love the other parent, because that’s how we get successful human beings. Nobody won here and nobody lost. The kid lost, because she doesn’t have her parents together. Minimize the effects of that loss. Minimize it in every way, shape and form you can. You’re going to see the dividends it pays in your child. Put that money where it belongs, in the child. FaceTime with your kids. There’s no amount of money that substitutes that, because you can’t buy time. Once it’s gone, it’s gone. Spend every minute you can, because you blink and they’re 25."
