Rick Ross has settled the nasty child support battle with his baby mama, who had recently taken him back to court demanding an increase in his monthly payments due to his massive success.

According to court documents obtained by The Blast, Ross and his baby mama Tia Kemp have reached an agreement over her demand for an increase in child support for their 12-year-old son.

The amount of child support will be confidential, but Ross agreed to pay the money directly in the baby mama’s bank account.

Ross and Kemp reached the deal during a mediation and the deal resolves all their outstanding issues.

Kemp originally sued Rick Ross for paternity back in 2007 over their son, William Roberts III (named after his father). The case has dragged on for years and they had reached a confidential settlement over custody and support in 2010.

Kemp believed since they reached their deal in 2010, Ross’ income has increased substantially. In documents filed in October 2017, Kemp says she has been trying to get more child support since 2015 but accused Ross of refusing to comply with her discovery requests into his finances.

Ross claimed that Kemp was unemployed and utilized his child support payments to support her other kids and grandchildren from other relationships, all of whom live with her.

He also argued that Kemp did not deserve another increase in support and said the amount he already paid Kemp was adequate to meet the needs of their son. He was actually looking to have the monthly amount decreased.
