Jaime King has filed an emergency request to terminate her child support payments to ex-husband Kyle Newman, citing financial hardship. The couple shares two sons, James and Theo, and King is also asking to end their previous spousal support agreement. In court documents filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, King highlighted Newman’s success as a filmmaker, game designer, and more, including referencing his recent wedding to musician Cyn and the birth of their daughter, Beatrix.
The actress included social media posts from Newman’s wedding, where Cyn was visibly pregnant with their second child, Beatrix, whom they welcomed in August of the previous year. The couple also has a son, Etienne, born in February 2021. King was reportedly surprised by the news of Newman’s pregnancy with Cyn, as she was unaware of it while they were sharing custody of their sons. King and Newman were married for nearly 13 years before she filed for divorce in May 2020. In addition to divorce proceedings, King also requested a temporary restraining order against Newman, which was later withdrawn.
During the divorce process, Newman filed for initial custody of their children, leading to court documents in which King alleged that he had been aggressive and emotionally manipulative. Newman denied these claims. After more than three years of legal battles, King and Newman finally settled their divorce in September 2023. Newman’s lawyer described the settlement day as emotional, with the pair coming together to put their children first. The lawyer noted that it was touching to see King and Newman getting along again after years of acrimony, with King even joining Newman for coffee after finalizing the settlement.
