According to T.O’s baby mama, Melanie Paige Smith, he isn’t paying up the monthly $5,000 child support they agreed upon. She decided to take him to court for not paying the full amount for June 2011. It’s only July 6th. Can you give the man a break? I mean, have you heard that there’s a NFL lock out? ROTFL. Who knows what the real story is behind the whole thing. We aren’t there. Baby mama drama is always a headache…at least from what I hear. Hopefully, that’s something that I never have to deal with EVER.
T.O.’s reps released this statement on the matter:
“We are saddened by Ms. Smith and her attorney’s need to bring this to the public as a news story. Mr. Owens has never once missed a payment or fell behind in child support payments for any of his children. When his income changed a few times over the last few years, dramatically decreasing, he continued to pay the child support amounts as they were structured for his previous significantly higher income. For June 2011, Mr. Owens communicated directly with Ms. Smith to let her know prior that he would only be able to pay half of the month’s support payment on the due date.”
