Chris Brown’s Baby Mama Wants Child Support Increased to $30,000 (About R494,000) a Month
Diamond Brown, the mother of US R&B singer Chris Brown’s four-year-old daughter, Lovely Symphani Brown, is asking a court to increase the monthly child support she receives from the singer from $7,000 (about R115,000) to at least $30,000 (approximately R494,000).
Brown argues that the current payments are insufficient to meet her daughter’s needs, given the singer’s financial position.
According to court documents cited by TMZ and Rolling Out, Diamond estimates Chris Brown’s net worth at approximately $50 million (about R822.5 million) and is seeking access to his financial records to establish his income and assets.
She has reportedly subpoenaed the singer’s business managers for banking and corporate records. However, they have objected to the request, leaving the matter unresolved.
Diamond, who works as a social media influencer and esthetician, says she earns approximately $1,500 (R24,675) a month and has about $10,000 (R164,500) in cash and savings. She maintains that the voluntary $7,000 monthly payments do not adequately cover her and her daughter’s expenses.
Earlier court filings reportedly outlined monthly expenses of approximately $45,000 (R740,000), including housing, childcare, extracurricular activities, college savings and other costs.
Chris Brown currently covers the rent for a four-bedroom home and pays utilities. He has also previously given Diamond a Tesla.
The child support dispute is part of a broader custody battle that began in April 2026, when Diamond filed a petition seeking legal and physical custody of Lovely, with Chris granted visitation. The singer opposed the request and asked the court for joint legal and physical custody.
In October, Diamond also alleged that Chris had not asked to see their daughter for six to seven months, claiming she cared for Lovely about 90% of the time. Chris’s other children’s mothers have publicly defended him, saying he is a supportive father who provides for his children.
The court has yet to resolve the dispute over access to the singer’s financial records or determine whether his monthly child support payments should be increased.
