Sade Bagnerise Responded To Ne-Yo’s Motion Filing With Her Own
According to RadarOnline, Bagnerise and her lawyer responded to Ne-Yo’s filing last week. The woman reportedly requested “primary custody” of their two sons, Brixton and Braiden, and “immediate monthly child support.”
Despite Bagnerise’s initial request, she has reportedly agreed to share “joint legal custody” of her and Ne-Yo’s children.
Furthermore, she also advocated for the singer to spend “every other weekend visitation” with the children and alternate their “holiday parenting time.”
As for the woman’s child support request, she’s reportedly asked the court to award her temporary and permanent child support. Additionally, she is asking the singer to reimburse “a fair portion of any medical, educational, extracurricular, insurance, or other expenses” of the children that she needs to satisfy.
Lastly, Bagnerise’s legal team did make a note regarding Ne-Yo’s paternity of the two children.
“[Ne-Yo] is the biological father of the parties’ minor children.”
More Details Regarding Ne-Yo’s Initial Filing & Paternity Request
As The Shade Room previously reported, Ne-Yo initially filed for “joint legal and physical custody” of Brixton and Braiden in May.
At the time, Ne-Yo disclosed that he and Sade welcomed their first son, Braiden, in 2021. Then, they recently welcomed their second son, Brixton, in February.
Additionally, the singer also asked the court to “establish parentage” of the two boys. He further disclosed that his doing so would allow the children access to their inheritance from him in the future.
Shortly after the singer’s filing, Bagnerise took to social media to show the results of a DNA test for the youngest child, Brixton. According to her screenshot, the results show that Ne-Yo, whose government name is Shaffer C. Smith, is the child’s father.
As The Shade Room previously reported, Ne-Yo allegedly fathered both children with Bagnerise during his 8-year marriage to his ex-wife, Crystal Renay.
Outside of Brixton and Braiden, Ne-Yo also fathers three children with Renay and two children with his ex-fiancée Monyetta Shaw.
