Messy divorce

Dre was paying his last respects to his grandmother on Monday, October 18, when a legal representative showed up with the papers.
However, there are conflicting reports on the exact location where the legal representative confronted Dre.
A source close to the producer said he was approached while standing next to his grandma' casket.
However, sources close to Nicole said he was served in the cemetery parking lot after the burial.
Dre did not take the documents as he recoiled in anger. The papers served to Dre involved a judge’s order directing him to finish paying Nicole's attorney fees.
Nicole filed for divorce from Dre in July 2020, after 24 years together. She cited irreconcilable differences.
Nicole had initially demanded to be paid KSh 200 million per month and the KSh 500 million for her lawyers.
Dre previously agreed to pay her KSh 200 million as temporary spousal support.
