Jesse Williams Ordered To Pay 100 000 Per Month In Spousal And Child Support

The judge’s decision ran counter to Williams’ own argument (or more accurately, that of his attorneys) in court that his two kids with Drake-Lee would be better served by handling their expenses directly: “The reasonable needs of the children can be met by (Williams) directly paying school tuition, uninsured medical and certain other expenses totaling $7,465 a month.” Williams’ attorneys have also tried to get his child support obligation included under the ones previously established as spousal support, but unfortunately for him the law separates the two. Following Drake-Lee’s request for more financial support, Williams filed a response that argued she was exaggerating the need for additional funds: “We agreed that our children should live a simple life without wasting money on extravaganza … A constant theme throughout our divorce proceedings has been Aryn marginalizing me as a father and frustrating my custodial timeshare with the children … Aryn continues to engage in this type of behavior and punish me for having a career and working hard to provide for our family.” Perhaps most impressively, dourt docs state that Williams’s income averages $521,000 a month. So $100,000 will be a big number, but he still has around $400,000 leftover before taxes to live off. Also, the decision to increase his obligations are supposed to be temporary until they can reach a final mutual arrangement — or a judge makes a final ruling on the financial terms of their divorce.
