Their attempt at co-parenting has hardly been plain sailing. But, for US singer Chris Brown, it's going to get even more dramatic as reports say he'll battle for joint custody by claiming his baby momma's live-in boyfriend, King Ba, is a bad influence and a wanted man.
According to TMZ, the 26-year-old singer has plans to counter Nia Guzman's efforts to take full custody of Royalty, their one-year-old daughter, with the defense.
King Ba, whose real name is Brazil Riesling and is listed on Royalty's birth certificate, was reportedly charged with fraud and is currently wanted by police.
They report that he's 'accused of forging more than $5,000 worth of U.S. Treasury checks' and state that police have released bank surveillance footage of him.
As a result, Brown is afraid that his daughter could be put in danger and will demand equal parenting rights when he appears in court, mid September.
Chris' new claims against come as Nia claims she is no longer King Ba's girlfriend, although his listed on Royalty's birth certificate.
The counter claim comes as she herself tries to alienate Chris from his daughter's life.
Nia has claimed that Chris might put Royalty in harm's way, that he or his friends might use drugs in her presence, and that violent acquaintances of the singer might endanger the girl.
In rectifying Nia's claimed, Chris had increased security after a recent break-in and denied Royalty had ever been exposed to either drugs or violent individuals.
It was not specified as to when Chris' opposition filing would be submitted, and Royalty remains in her mother's primary custody for the moment.
This would not be the first time Chris has needed to file legal paperwork with regard to his only child, who was conceived during a fling with Nia.
