*DJ Mustard believes his ex-wife is endangering their children by using them on social media for her “brand.”
New details have emerged in Mustard’s ongoing custody battle with his ex Chanel. The musician — real name Dijon McFarlane — responded to her request for an increase in child support. In his filing, he claims Chanel is trying to monetize the children through social media “brand deals,” The Blast reports.
“He is concerned that publicizing the children may expose them to predators and unfriendly media and he is also concerned that as mere children they lack the ability to consent to the use of their images in a manner that will become a permanent feature of the internet,” the document states.
Per The Blast, in his declaration, DJ Mustard says, “The children deserve to have a safe, private childhood, and I am concerned that their exposure on public social media will expose them to predators and unfriendly media attention. In using images of the children to secure or promote a “brand deal” Chanel is putting her needs before the best interests of the children.”
The legal docs also reveal that the ex-couple meet in a Whole Foods parking lot when it’s time to hand off the kids because Mustard doesn’t trust Chanel coming to his home.
“Chanel and I effectuate our custody exchanges at Whole Foods because it is halfway between both of our homes. We have been exercising our exchanges at Whole Foods for many months now,” the filing states, according to The Blast.
DJ Mustard continues, “Given Chanel’s propensity to stalk me, I am not comfortable having Chanel at my home (or curbside) and I am not comfortable being at her home. I also prefer the custody exchanges to be at a neutral public location in that it gives Chanel less of an opportunity to create a scene.”
As The Blast reports, Mustard’s lawyer — Samantha Spector — writes, “Whenever he attempts to communicate with her, she lashes out in anger, undertakes stalking behavior, and creates conflict that unnecessarily harms the children.”
Adding, “Because Chanel is so aggressive and hostile, Dijon believes that it is in the best interest of the children to have as few custodial exchanges as possible, and in fact, the parties’ week-on week-off custody schedule has been working well even though Chanel continues to use custody exchanges as an opportunity to stoke conflict.”
A judge will ultimately decide on the matter.
