More Details On Tyrese’s Arrest
According to TMZ, Tyrese appeared in Fulton County court on Monday, September 9. His appearance was reportedly related to an ongoing child support battle with his ex-wife, Samantha Lee. To note, the pair share a 5-year-old daughter named Soraya.
Per the outlet, Tyrese reportedly did not comply with Judge Kevin Farmer’s order that he pay Lee $10,000 a month in child support. Furthermore, Farmer reportedly issued the order in April 2023.
During the hearing, Judge Farmer reportedly held Tyrese in contempt of court. Ultimately, the singer was placed in handcuffs and taken into custody.
To note, on Sunday, September 8, Tyrese shared a message, speculating that he would likely be placed in cuffs during his court appearance.
