Hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons has agreed to pay $40,000 a month in child support, the Associated Press reports.
At the same time, the fabulous Kimora Lee Simmons has been given sole custody of the couple’s two daughters, 9-year-old Ming and 6-year-old Aoki.
Russell was granted visitation rights and must pay child support – something that he actually wants to do. Russell states on his Global Grind blog:
“I am reading these stories today about how a judge ordered me to pay Kimora $40,000 a month in child support and I want to make something very clear. Nothing was ordered, it was given. My kids have a fabulous life; they are exposed to a broad range of artistic and scholastic educational programs and I’m very happy to contribute to that. As long as I have it, they can have it. If I ever don’t have it, I’m coming to live with them!”
