Corey Feldman's Ex Courtney Submits Text Messages In Spousal Support Request

Corey Feldman's estranged wife, Courtney Feldman, is not backing down from her petition to increase her spousal support payments.

The former teen star, known for movie roles like "License to Drive," made waves after filing to end his 7-year marriage in 2023. While he cited "irreconcilable differences," his former partner shared a different story.

The entertainer's estranged wife provided evidence to the court to support her claim for spousal support. Courtney shared text messages from Corey Feldman that allegedly captured his vow to help her with her medical bills.

According to court documents, Courtney submitted her text exchanges with Corey into evidence as part of her petition for temporary spousal support in their divorce case. In the messages, her estranged husband responded to her plea for help with her medical bills.

"Courtney, I'm sorry to hear U R struggling. Please send me a bill or breakdown of what these medical expenses are, and I'll see what can be done," the alleged response from Corey read, adding:

"Unfortunately, this is the worst timing ever. I leave for tour Tom [sic] and hav [sic] no $ at all as I am way over extended. Had to get real bud [sic] for this one, and they wanted $ in advance."

"As well as all the merch for arena shows, which cost a $14k deposit. So that's $120k up front, which is exactly what I'm making," Corey explained, per In Touch. He stressed that he was "basically wiped out" until he was paid in a few weeks for the shows.

In the text messages, Corey noted that despite being financially unable to help Courtney at the time of his response, he would see what he could do for her. Part of his reply read:

"But if U show me what's going on, I can see what I can do about it when I start getting paid from the tour. Communication is key. I don't want to be your enemy at all."

It was unclear if Corey followed through with his promise, but Courtney noted he was paying her $2,000 a month in spousal support. However, she implored the court to increase it to $5,000 to cover part of her medical debt.

According to Courtney, she was forced to work part-time at a coffee shop due to her experiencing various health issues, including hives and having COVID several times. She also accused Corey of leaving her with no home, car, and money when they separated.

Courtney noted she had nearly $20,000 in medical bills to cover, explaining in her declaration that she previously worked in Corey's band before her health issues began. Now, her situation was dire per her claims.

Corey's ex stressed that she had less than $3,000 in savings and managed to pull in around $1,982 a month minus her estranged husband's spousal support. She argued the entertainer could pay more, given his successful businesses.

Courtney claimed that Corey made around $35,000 at every fan convention and $50,000 per year selling videos to fans on Cameo. She also revealed that he scored a $700,000 payday for his recently produced documentary.

Courtney's claims about Corey's finances continued, with her sharing that "For the last year, he has been marketing and selling toy dolls of himself called 'Funko' dolls. These dolls collectively are worth a lot of money."

"They are highly collectible and sell out very fast. So, he has money from many sources, including his current band tour for the next several months. I am informed the doll deal would have grossed Corey $700,000," Courtney alleged.

As for what led to their divorce, Courtney accused her estranged husband of abandoning her. "My decision to quit drugs and 'our lifestyle' was the reason our marriage ended," she told the court.

Courtney argued that her decision to quit the couple's substance-fueled lifestyle changed the dynamic in their marriage. "In May 2023, I informed Corey I would not be 'partying' anymore," she recalled, adding:

"And further, because of my deteriorating health and increased stress, I would not be going on tour. Once I said no to the drugs, our relationship unraveled quickly."

The Blast reported that in her response to Corey's divorce filing, Courtney agreed to end their 7-year affair but requested spousal support. However, her estranged husband asked for that right to be terminated in his documents.
