Whitfield, who quit after she was unceremoniously fired from Bravo’s hit reality series, recently secured a “win” in court with her ex-husband, retired NFL star Bob Whitfield.
[FLASHBACK: Bob Whitfield Speaks About Child Support… (VIDEO)]
If you recall, last season Bob surprised his ex with a contempt filing in court, which stunned both she and her attorney at the time, Phaedra Parks.
[FLASHBACK: The Real Reason Sheree Whitfield Wasn’t Getting Child Support (Court Docs)]
Fortunately the two came to an amicable agreement for the sake of their two kids and Sheree immediately adds about $75,000 to her desired 7 figure divorce settlement.
According to TMZ, Bob has about 3 weeks cut a check for $75,000 to Sheree for back child support payments
Bob admits he failed to make 38 monthly child support payments of $2,142 to the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star … more than $81k.
Bob claimed he simply didn’t have the money — and had asked the court to lower his obligation … but that was denied.
Now, the two sides have struck a deal in which Bob has agreed to hand over $75k before Nov. 11 … or face the consequences in court.
In addition to the $75k, Bob has also agreed to pay $1,000 per month for the next 12 months — before reverting back to the original $2,142.
Fun Fact — Back in 2000, Whitfield signed a 6-year contract with the Atlanta Falcons in the neighborhood of $30 million.
Cha-Ching!! Unemployment isn’t looking too bad now huh?
By the way, there was no mention of who pays attorney’s fees… so while Sheree may be sleeping a bit easier with her new windfall, the attorney who took on the case may be in for a long wait for payment, especially since Sheree never paid the two other law firms who represented her in her divorce.
Season 5 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta is starting November 4th!

Sheree Whitfield Talks “Broke Ballers” w/John Salley & Antoine Walker on TJ Holmes’ “Don’t Sleep”… [FULL VIDEO]
I’m happy that this was resolved, for the sake of the children.
I’M GLAD HE HAS TO PAY AND IF HE DOESN’T THEY SHOULD LOCK HIM UP AND SELL HIS ISH B/C ITS QUITE OBVIOUS HIS SPITE FOR HER WAS GREATER THAN HIS LOVE & WELFARE OF HIS KIDS. SMH!!!………..JENNY JONES!!!
MICHELLE I KNEW YOU WOULD FIND A WAY TO BASH SHEREE IN YOUR POST EVENTHOUGH YOU HAVE BEEN BACKING A NINJA THAT HAS PURPOSELY NOT PAID CHILD SUPPORT FOR OVER 3 YRS!!!! WOW!!! SAY WHAT YOU WANT ABOUT HOOK NOSE SHEREE BUT SHE,LIKE MANY OTHER SINGLE MOMS,HELD IT DOWN FOR KIDS WHILE HE WAS BEING SPITEFUL & A DEADBEAT. SMH!!!……JENNY JONES!!!
JENNYJONES!!! – For real? Are you sure about all that…??
(and how did I bash Sheree in this post? the truth is the truth, right?)
@ATLIEN—–YOUR ATTORNEY GETTING PAYMENT BASH WAS TOTAL UNCALLED FOR. WHY DON’T YOU EVER CALL YOUR BOY BOB ON HIS 38 MISSED ORDERED CHILD SUPPORT PAYMENTS? BE FAIR WITH THE BASHING AS YOU WERE WITH TAMIKA & USHER. YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE REPORTER FOR COURT TV ON THAT CASE B/C YOU WERE ON IT AND BIAS. LOVE YOUR SITE AND HOT NEW WEIGHT LOSE LOOK……..JENNY JONES!!!
I’m glad she got her money too. And I’m glad her monthly child support payments will resume as well.
did you even read why she wasn’t getting child support? It was not because he didn’t love his children – its because Sheree had swindled him! Everything is not always on the man! Sheree was wrong. She cheated him out of a lot of money. I never had the impression he didn’t love his children. I also didn’t have the impression his children returned that love.
First of all why is ATLien aka Gabby Sidabay mad???? It is because she been dogging Sheree out since "Bob’s" been under her "Spell"??? I’m sure Sheree’s somewhere "Popping Bottles" and laughing at "Bob and Michelle" now…Remember God doesn’t like "Ugly" but you do…..I digress.
Poppin’ bottles over $75,000? That’s not much to celebrate over, considering what she’s owed. Plus, that only buys about 7 Birkens, right? Hopefully it’ll go on the kids and not on her fashions. Sheree was actually one of my favorites on the show, but she’s materialistic and shallow as hell.
And why do black people constantly throw Gabby under the bus? SMDH. If we don’t uplift her uniqueness, WTF will?
Apparently black people don’t like anyone named "Gabby"
lol, it sure isnt a lot…kids are expensive
That’s right. Sheree got her house built and she got her child support payments rolling again despite everything Michelle said about those things.
Bet his lawyers and him will come up with something else to delay the payment. He has something up his sleeve.
He did’nt retain a lawyer. He represented himself. People fail to realize, Bob is very (VERY) intelligent.
unlike many pro athletes, he mustve taken advantage of going to a university like Stanford.
Sheree gonna blow straight through that money! I just hope she gets some furniture and cuts her sons hair.People that go around looking like a million dollar bill while they got they kids dressed in Dollar Store clothes get on my damn nerves. Your kids should get what they need first! #ByeSheree
I agree. I can see her spending it all on purses and shoes — nothing for her children.
LMAO I just made that same comment.
Exactly and I blame both Bob and Sheree. His ass was riding around in nice cars just as well as Sheree’s stupid ass and they weren’t taking care of the kids like they were supposed to. A lot of people do not know how to manage their money and usually those who go through a lot of money couldn’t manage it in the first place. I hope that both Bob and Sheree have learned their lesson through all this. Sheree, if you’re reading this, lol, stop buying that overpriced stuff.
pretty much. she is a basic bird.
i am glad that their children don’t have that eye syndrome. i know a girl who is cross eyed and so is her little baby…that man is scary looking.
i am glad that their children don’t have that eye syndrome
——————
Oh lord…is it possible to laugh and faint at the same time?
I hope she doesn’t blow this money like all the other times. I truly hope she will learn to do right by this litte bit she is getting now.
she should also invest some money, and it dosent t ake much to get her little girl together…the boy also needs braces
i to cant stand when parents are fresh dressed and the kids look like ratty bums
so unfair
I am happy for you Sheree. It’s never easy raising kids by yourself. If Bob was worried about where the money was being spent, he should be trying to gain custody of his kids instead of making a joke of the child support issue.
PREACH!!!!………..JENNY JONES!!!!
Sheree is not raising the kids by herself. Bob is not a dead beat dad. He have custody of his kids too. He don’t ask her for a dime when he has them in his custody.
right. he can obviously afford to fight for a joint custody agreement since he represents himself. some people still have to pay child support in joint agreements though.
but…why even report a story when the subject of your story is your "man"…awkward.
"but…why even report a story when the subject of your story is your "man"…awkward."
Lol…
You are one bitter heifer!!!!
38 MONTHS of missed payments! What a disgrace! While Sheree is bashed and made out to be the bad parent, Bob gets off scott free because he "simply didn’t have it"? What a fkn joke. I’m happpy that Sheree finally got something out of that deadbeat. Good for her.
YES I SO AGREE EVERYONE ESP WOMEN WHO MAY BE SINGLE MOTHERS THEMSELVES HAVE DOGGED SHEREE B/C THEY SEE PART OF HER LIFE ON TV(WHICH MOST OF THAT CRAP WAS FOR TV & BORROWED ESP THE CLOTHES FROM STORES JUST FOR THE PR)BUT BOB JUST LIKE USHER GOT A PASS B/C THEIR PRIVATE LIVES AREN’T ON TV. SMH!!! IF HE HASN’T BEEN PAYING CHILD SUPPORT FOR OVER 3 YRS SHE WAS THE ONE TAKING CARE OF THEIR KIDS AND DESERVES THE CREDIT FOR IT. THE JUDGE SAW IT ALL AND RULED IN HER FAVOR WHICH SAYS IT ALL……JENNY JONES!!!
LOL, I’m happy Sheree finally got her duckets.
It’s about time the court made this dead beat dad pay up. He should be ashamed of himself for not taking care of his kids.
Waiting for Bob’s audio/visual response in 3,2,1.
LOL
They should have ordered him to pay the little girl back for the time he spent her gift cards. LOL Hilarious!
lol
lmao he certainly did! ahhahaa
lmao that was too funny. sheree lies but that was so petty it seemed true.
That money is gonna go straight down the drain, smh…..
I hate to say it, but this is somewhat hilarious. Michelle, you’re right in that Sheree has to pay those lawyers from the divorce and from the settlement FIRST! They will likely put a lien on that judgment as creditors to get the money so essentially, Sheree is back at square ONE! She should have left well enough alone and asked Bob to resume making his $2k monthly payments nicely because she’s got to dig herself out of a hole. Bob is NO JOKE! LMBO. He can represent himself and save himself a ton of money, but Sheree wants lawyers so that she can try to get money AND attorneys’ fees. Greed doesn’t always pay off in the end.
Sheree, honey, if you’re reading this, please invest in a DEGREE somewhere or you will ALWAYS be looking for the next payout. It’s not cute and is that what you want your youngest daughter to do when she grows up?
Isn’t child support money untouchable to creditors? Just wondering. I really hope she uses the money for her children’s education.
In some states it is considered income and therefore a lien can be put on it. Other states they recognize that it is the childs income, the child doesnt owe so they wont lien.
Sheree seem to have done a good job raising her oldest daughter…so why would the other two be different? She’s a good mother. Bob and Sheree are making bad decisions dealing with each other. That’s not just on her.
Sheree didnt raise her oldest daughter,her family did.
Sheree didn’t have a hand in raising Tierra UNTIL she got with Bob. He raised Sheree’s daughter as his own and even paid her college education.
Well said.
Sheree has proven to be a poor money manager. She keeps buying luxury cars that keep getting repossessed. She is always photographed carrying a $5000 handbag. One should have $5000 INSIDE a handbag in order to carry one that is worth this much. This is ridiculous. She needs to comes to terms with the fact that she is no longer married to a baller who is making millions in the NFL. She is trying to maintain a lifestyle that she can’t afford. She is trying to keep up appearances and going further into debt. I live better than she does and I’m merely working a 9 to 5 job. The difference is that I’m not trying to live above my paycheck. My bills are paid on time and there are NO collectors harrassing me. I don’t have a $5000 handbag either. Even without Bob’s child support checks, she could have maintained a nice lifesyte with the Bravo checks if she would have been reasonable in her spending.
Exactly. Make due with what you have. She can still buy expensive things, she will just have to save for them. And she can’t be buying $5000 handbags when she does not have food in her refrigerator. I remember that small sandwich she made for her son on that one episode. It was sad. You stock up on meat, dairy, fruits, and vegetables before you give Hermes and Aston Martin ANY of your money, honey.
"Sheree, honey, if you’re reading this, please invest in a DEGREE somewhere or you will ALWAYS be looking for the next payout."
^^^ Yuuup! What Vay said…
People like Sheree make me stay focused on my education and working harder for my achievements everyday. I would never won’t to be in her shoes.
Typo: want
Oh Chelly!!! HOW DOES IT FEEL TO HAVE DATED A DEAD BEAT DADDY?!?! I SURE HOPE YOU DONT HAVE KIDS!!
I wouldn’t know… you tell me?
I’m so happy for the kids!
Sheree will have a some new Louboutin shoes and Birkin bags in 3,2,1….
From the ‘Flea Market".
It’s about time lazy azz one eye bob paid up.
I can’t believe that it was only 75k!!! AND 1k per mth to eventually 2.1k? That’s utility coverage for chateau. The 1k? Ramen noodles,electric bill and Marta transpasses.
lol
He could have given her $2 million and she will still be broke in 6 months. She does not know how to manage money and she spends money like it is water. I hope she at least spends some on her kids, and not another luxury car and designer handbags.
Bob is a cockeyed deadbeat and Sheree please use this money wisely because you don’t have the best spending habits these days smh. Please stop putting your little bit of coins into that house. Buy a nice townhouse (something you can afford) and call it a day. Take some tips from Marlo on how to turn a $90,000 townhouse into something that makes it "look" like you have money. Since you want to front so bad.
Tell us how you "really" feel!
I agree!She should use the money wisely in this economy and I don’t care if she resides in Atlanta, so-called flossing city. I did not like how she put her kids on television like that…
Thank you. Why not take the furniture and fixtures she stole from her home with Bob and put that stuff inside the apartment she was living in to make it look like a chateau, rather than building a chateau? The money spent on the chateau could have been money she kept in the bank/invested to live off of daily, so she will have food to eat and her bills paid on a regular basis.
I’m sorry but these men NEED To PAY for these kids they’re making. I don’t give a damn what your relationship with the woman is…take care of your damn kids. JERK!
But didn’t I read somewhere that the kids were living with Bob for years?
You probably read it on here…
Unfortunately, people minds are made up about him. They don’t want to here the truth. it’s much sompler to make the mother the victim and the father the dog.
Shout out to showing Khia "Miss neck & back" love! Get money bitch… But like you said HEree is gonna blow thru that change in no time. She better apply for some food stamps…
^^^ when are you changing your name to "KhiaIsTheQueenOfRap"?
Me and Kia got a love hate relationship… But Trina is the Queen only queen of the south…
OMG 2,000/MTH FOR CHILD SUPPORT!? this is why i wont be having kids that amount is outrageous. golddigging bitches win again
A woman who had kids by her husband, supported them despite the circumstances, and finally gets her due is a gold digging bitch?Oh, ok.
Sheree had kids before she met him, got pregnant to keep him and he finally married her after the 2nd child. They wree married for 2 years and it took 5 more years for the divorce because she wanted "7 figures". I would classify her as a gold digging bitch.
Well, it looks like she finally dug long enuff to hit gold…Bob need to go on and cut that check.
Didnt Sheree cost Bob over a million for the house they shared. It cost over 2 mil but sold for like 1 mil because she wanted to stay at the home but not pay on it so it went into foreclosure. She expected Bob to pay for a home that he was not staying at. She is just messy all the way around.
ATL is it true Sheree been desperately throwing herself at Kroy’s team mates? Saying she can offer her personal training services then asking about dinner, where they do that at? LOL
LOL
I hope she spend it on the children and not buy a new Birkin hand bag.
I think people are under the impression that he was not taking care of his kids. This is not true. Bob stated that when the kids are with him, he don’t request any financial support from that horse. he provides when they are in his custody. Her original child support was based on an increased income, he has since made less money and has asked the courts to decrease the original amount. I seriously doubt if that man has neglected his kids. He is very (extremely) bright. Don’t be fooled. Now she may earn the title of unfit if that title is to be pinned on either of them and I don’t believe that to be the case.
At least SOMEONE has been paying attention…
Michelle, you know I’m all over it!
As if nobody can tell you ARE Michelle! GTFOH!!
Nah I dont think that’s Michelle…close though! lol
"Here you go" you are too damn funny! The one time I do agree with Michelle, I get accused of being her. The main reason I follow Michelle is because she have the most current information about Atlantans and I reside here. I am not a part of the Atlanta nightlife so I have to get my info from somewhere and although I may have to create my own truth when reading her blogs or tweets, it is the most accurate info that I’ve come across, in spight of it being biased. I am Theconnectsean (That’s Connecticut Sean, pronounced Connection):-)
Sheree has proven to be a poor money manager. She keeps buying luxury cars that keep getting repossessed. She is always photographed carrying a $5000 handbag. One should have $5000 INSIDE a handbag in order to carry one that is worth this much. This is ridiculous.

My bills are paid on time and there are NO collectors harrassing me. I don’t have a $5000 handbag either. Even without Bob’s child support checks, she could have maintained a nice lifesyte with the Bravo checks if she would have been reasonable in her spending. Kandi Burriss has l-o-n-g dollars and she is not flaunting it. Until recently, she has lived in ranch home that she purchased when she was a teenager and singing with Xscape. She could have had a mansion but she was saving and planning for the future. Sheree needs to sit down with Kandi and her financial advisors otherwise she will blow through $75k getting spa treatments and hair extensions. She is too old to be in the situation that she is in financially.
Agree %100!! Also, because her "Settlement" isn’t even $100k and her "kids" will be 18yrs. old in a blink, she should sell whatever bag she has and carry a Publix grocery bag instead. It will probably be hard selling the chateau because of location and ‘no land’ since it seems built on whatever was available. Is there even a pool? At least, I think, her mother had her name exponged from deed before contractors/lawyers etc. started coming after her. I sincerely hope the best for Sheree. ‘Work’ doesn’t HAVE to be in front of a camera and you won’t be this fit forever. Get/or create yourself a job.
Here’s what she got originally:
……in their divorce settlement Sheree received a lump sum of $775,000, as well as an annual $113,422 in her ex’s retirement funds and $2,142.87 in monthly child support. No spousal support was awarded……..
Now see…. I wish I would get $775,000 smh….I would have bought (and paid off) a nice modest 3 bedroom home and hired Marlo’s designer. Child please. I could have been the laughing stock of Atlanta but guess what my house is paid for lol! OK! I can’t believe her attorney has not told her to file chapter 20 yet. Ok! Man down! She has a lot of debt and this would give her good start at getting it under control. I actually like Sheree and want to see her do well and it’s nothing wrong with starting all over. Please tap into your gift of physical fitness and training that’s what you need to pursue not running around doing these little stints and appearances.
Wow. All that, plus the income she was getting from Bravo? What in the world did she do with all that money to be living in an apartment. No way in hell!
Yep, she sure does need to have a convo with Kandi.
I remember during one of the seasons a mention of Bob giving her a large lump sum of money (separate from child support), I also remember something going on with her old house where she thought he was going to give her money AND maintain the home she was living in because "his kids needed a home". On the outside looking in it appears that Sheree tried to squeeze as much money from this man as she could clearly making his child support obligations last on the list. It also appears that the child support didn’t come up until she ran though the other money and then wanted to say he wasn’t taking care of his kids. There are some men who even after the divorce will take care of the home etc but BOB does not seem like that guy. lol I remember feeling some kind of way when her own daughter was shocked when Sheree told her that Bob was not taking care of the kids, the daughters reaction was almost like she knew the other side. I also remember feeling some kind of way when it was very clear that her daughter (who is not Bobs) seem to have a close relationship with him AND her boyfriend seemed more comfortable talking to Bob then he did Sheree. One thing that I can say the man cant be all that bad if her oldest child continued a meaningful relationship with him especially when it is much easier to just take your mothers side and be done.
There are two sides to every story and unfortunately when given air time on the show Bob seemed more invested in making Sheree look like a fool then to defend his role as a father. In essence I don’t think he cares what any of us think. For the kids…I hope they BOTH find a common ground and Sheree take a class on family budgeting!
Phadra pointed it out the best…how can you say that you are hurting financially when your purse cost just as much as some cars…
That is so true, there is always two sides to every story. I would really love to hear Bob’s side and Sheree’s.
I would too but he would never do it. He respects his kids to much to speak publicly against their gold digging mother.
I hope Bob decides to pay the $75,000 vs. taking the something else!! Sheree is still out of legal fees and plus Bob still got his child support reduced for 1 year. There still is no guarantee he will pay it!!
I hope he pays it. It would be worth it to get it over with and maintain his kids respect. He only has to pay for about 5/6 years? No spousal support. And with Obamacare in effect he’ll save on expensive health insurance. Buy yourself a Kia,designer knockoff bags and some $39 shoes from Nene’s shoe line. Keep ya’ chin up and march your azz into a ‘Gold’s Gym’ and get a JOB.
I hope she spends the money on her children and not designer things for herself.
I really hope Sheree gets it together. There’s no way she rec’d 1 million dollars plus salary from the show and she’s broke. With that money she should have paid for a nice house outright cash, furnished it got two nice cars and banked the rest. I hope that she takes that money and does something other than buy shoes and clothes and if she does let it be for the children.
Sheree really….I’m glad that he has finally been held accountable for the well being of his kids. But why do you feel the need to waste money on a celebrations all the damn time. GIRL GET YO LIFE…..YOU ARE THE RHOA WHO WENT DOWN AND NOT UP.
Exactly, some people waste money on outlandish bs. How about investing in something worthwhile or taking some of Suze Orman’s advice. Some black folks love wasting and spending money on some crazy stuff that depreciates. Even I have friends who are driving around in some of the most luxurious cars and don’t have a pot to piss in and a window to throw it out of and they are always screaming around car payment time.
I too have some friends who are on the verge of tears when their car, mortgage, and child’s private school tuition rolls around.
I hate bragging but I live a very blessed and fortunate life than my friends but they love to act as if they are living like they are Kimora Lee Simmons and don’t have shit and I mean not shit (I really hate saying that about my friends but it’s so true) but they are fly as hell. They love bragging about where they went and bought, going on those cheap ass cruises 4x a year, going somewhere for the weekend (casinos), having 3 and four cars but they really are struggling big time. I really don’t get people like that. My husband and I just shake our heads because all they are doing is just getting themselves into more debt. We like to see where our money is going. A friend of my husband came to us and tried to borrow money behind his wife’s back because they both have been fronting which we knew the entire time but we didn’t want to do it because money can and will ruin a friendship. That’s why I will never understand people that they try so hard to impress when they don’t realize that person could be struggling just as hard as they are.
LXL, that’s a problem with many black folk. You’ll see black men in hummers, but they live in their parent’s basement. I HAD a friend. In our 20’s, she had her own apartment. Every two weeks she was getting her hair and nails done. Never saved anything. I was screwing up my credit too, but after a stern talk with my mom (vice versa), I started saving money. No reason for me to work 2 jobs and have nothing to show for it. Fast forward 10+ years…I’m still doing my own nails and hair (mostly), only shopping on sale (mostly), and I’ve had two homes. She’s been living at her mother’s for years.
On RHOA, Kandi told Kim she didn’t have a black card. Out of all the women, she’s the only one who could actually afford it, but has no need for it. She’s smart with money, clearly.
@Stlchick, someone once said that poor black folks are almost the only ones who will line up for the latest sneakers, big screen tv’s, get game systems, high end designer bags, drive the nicest cars, buy gold jewelry, buy outfits for every doggone occasion and for the club but will always want to depend on the damn government. Again, I will never understand it. And they have the nerve to look at you like why don’t you have this, this, and that. I let their asses know real quick and tell them, "because I know the value of a dollar", and I really hate going there.
How does one "win" money owed to them? Better yet, how does one "win" money owed to their child(ren)?
Now that’s a damn good question.
Now you said that!Would love to know the answer to that question myself!
You know what? I wonder why men and women have to go to court for child support when you know fully well that you should automatically be financially and responsible for your very own children. It shouldn’t even have to come to that which is truly sad. People should want the very best for their kids regardless how mad they are at each other.
You are correct but unfortunately everyone was not raised to understand that.
I agree every man should pay for their child’s upbringing. But something needs to be done about those who do and still get burned by vindictive exes. There is a dad I know had his daughter M-F paid her daycare, bought her clothes feeds her takes good care of her. He has her EVERY holiday and birthday and Mom was cool cause she only had her on the weekends. She lost her job so after years of paying for child care he figured she can keep her Mon-Fri wrong she flew her tail down to CS and said he dont do enough, and the outcome was just bad for him. On topic I recall something about a lump sum and her not doing right about a house. All I’m saying is be fair about it I don’t think he was ever a deadbeat she screwed him over.
You’re right. There are some vindictive exes out there that will go to extreme lengths and because of this behavior the child(ren) suffer. I think men and women who are doing the right thing should keep journals and receipts of everything to prove to the courts or whomever of what they are doing to take care of the child(ren). I hear stories all the time about how the exes decide to go and put daddy on child support out of spite because he is dating or marrying someone else which in some cases some men are taking care of their children and some aren’t. And then you got those that get with men who aren’t shit and not doing anything and still get pregnant by these fools and go screaming and hollering because they aren’t taking care of Shaquan and Jaressa. Well they knew this before they were impregnated by these good for nothing and never will be shit trolls.
Uuuumm I remember in the first or second season, Sheree mentioned that more than anything, she wants Bob to bond with their kids..she also said how when he left, it didn’t effect her kids that much because he wasn’t that attached to them..she mentioned how Bob is closer to her oldest daughter than their others kids…whether you like Sheree or Bob, it’s obvious that he has some spite towards Sheree that has effected his relationship with his children…hopefully that will change..
I don’t care about the ins and outs of the contract, PAY UP N*GGA or pull a Usher!
ATLIEN, PLEASE TELL ME YOU DONT SUPPORT DEAD BEAT DADS? BOB WAS A DEADBEAT TO NOT PAY UP!!!! IM SO GLAD HE HAS TO PAY, THIS SENDS A MESSAGE TO ALL DEADBEATS, PAY UP OR GET CAUGHT UP OR GO TO JAIL!!!! PAY YOUR CHILD SUPPORT DEADBEATS ESPECIALLY IF YOU GOT IT PAY IT STOP LYING AND DUCKING AND DODGING!!!! ALSO, WHY DIDN’T YOU MENTION HOW BOB WAS BEHIND IN PAYMENTS BUT LIVING FAB IN THE WEST COAST?
glad its over ,for those kids sakes. But seems wrong ,any money she get going to attorney fees she didnt pay……thats not fair to those children.
Wendy Williams is shady as sh*t. She just made mention of Sheree and gleefully reported on Shree’s mansion showing SAME pic SFTA posted yayo months ago. Also credited Tattles chic. She’s about as late as Romney accessing military munitions. Also, I never see or hear her referencing ANY thoroughly resourced topics from this site. Her favorite is Sandra Rose which makes me wonder why? Don’t get me wrong…SFTA NEVER needs credit from ANYONE. Just that there’s no way that this supposedly well read resourceful woman relies often on a Black woman who OBVIOUSLY hates the president. Won’t at all be surprised to see Dash chic sitting on her couch while she’s swooning over her light eyes.
I can’t stand Wendy from her early radio days. What made me dislike her so much is when she set up old school rapper Father MC to be arrested when he came up to do her radio show in NY. She knew all along and was in talks with the cops on how they could catch him. She suggested that she would invite him to the studio and they could snatch him there. Now mind you, he owed back child support and his child’s mother asked Wendy to help her so she contacted the police and hatched a plan. I don’t support deadbeat dads but I do feel that Wendy shouldn’t have got involved with that. Now I see why 2Pac couldn’t stand her and cussed her out every chance he got.
Sheree gonna blow straight through that money!
Beth I co sign.
Those handbags, hair weaves, louboutins, and Bentley isn’t gonna pay for themselves.
She will be broke again before Christmas, and broke again before Spring.
Lets all pray to GOD she buys her kids at least some beds & furniture.
After all it is their money
