Junior Reid’s Baby-Mother Takes Him back to Supeme Court for Child Maintenance
Tsahai Phillips, the mother of Junior Reid four children, is ticked off that the ‘One Blood’ singer is refusing to pay child maintenance for his children despite her repeated attempts to broker a workable arrangement with him.
“Junior Reid does not want to support his four kids, he can find money to do all sorts of things, buy cars, start new business but he finds it almost impossible to take care of his four children,” Ms. Phillips told Reggaemusicfm.
Ms. Phillips had been embroiled in a bitter dispute with Junior Reid in the Supreme Court over child maintenance over the past year, however, last week, after several requests from the singer, she decided to drop the case and accept an interim payment.
“Last week, he begged me to drop the court case. I didn’t want to drag them into the animosity between the two of us so I decided to go ahead and drop the case. At the time, I said don’t let me regret, he said ‘mi no so wicked’. However, I went to the club today, and he tried to give me 10,000 to take care of his responsibility which I have been doing for the past two weeks, then he had the audacity to tell me say I come to his place with my ‘heavy vibes’. The week before I dropped the case, he would have entertained me for all ten hours, so I am tired but now all of a sudden, I have a ‘heavy vibes’,” she argued.
She said she returned the money to him forthwith and left his business establishment. Ms. Phillips is the mother of four of his children, his eldest son is 16 while the youngest is 11 years-old.
“Last time, I went to court and I was supposed to get a sum of money, however, we reached an agreement that he would give me 70,000 in the interim. So when he gave me 10,000, I returned it to him, I told him I don’t want it,” an enraged Ms. Phillips said.
Ms. Phillips said that if he had decided to continue the case, she could have been granted a maintenance order in the region of $200,000.
“The court said that he could give me 70. Now, I can’t get a dollar from him, after I drop the case. The young kids are at my house every week practically. he is buying all kinda tings and opening up the View Club on Eastwood Park Road, he collects rent for places on Eastwood, every time ask him for something, give 5,000 for four kids. I am going to open up back the case,” she said.
Ms. Phillips is represented by attorney-at-law Gordon Steer.
