Brittany Renner recently delighted her followers by sharing new snapshots of her son, Paul III, whom she co-parents with NBA star PJ Washington.
The social media influencer and former reality TV figure took to Instagram to showcase candid moments with her 4-year-old son.
Accompanying the photos, she wrote a succinct caption: “Life Lately.”
This update surfaces amidst ongoing legal disputes between Renner and Washington concerning child support and custody arrangements.
Based on filings in North Carolina, Washington aims to have the case remain in that state, where the initial child support agreement was established. Conversely, Renner initiated a separate legal action in California last September, seeking to relocate the proceedings there.
In the California filing, Renner requested an increase to the $5,500 per month Washington currently pays in child support for their son.
She argued that the amount should be raised to $35,000, citing higher expenses after relocating from North Carolina to Los Angeles and saying she does not have a steady income after leaving Basketball Wives.
“I am struggling to make ends meet and I cannot provide Paul III a life anywhere similar to that of his father,” Renner said.
She added, “To put in perspective how ridiculous current orders are, current child support payments … will comprise 0.30% of [Washington’s] monthly income. This is less than half a percent … of what [Washington] earns.”
Washington, 27, pushed back, arguing that Renner had previously agreed to the North Carolina terms and that they share joint custody. He also said California doesn’t have jurisdiction, noting that their son was conceived in North Carolina and that he hasn’t lived or worked in California.
In the filing, Washington also claimed that Renner’s legal team threatened to serve him with court papers during an NBA game, calling the tactic coercive and inappropriate.
The case is still active, with no final decision yet on whether jurisdiction will change.
