Actor Tyrese Gibson ARRESTED

Actor Tyrese Gibson ARRESTED

Tyrese Gibson was taken into custody after he failed to pay the monthly $10,000 child support payments a judge ordered him to make to his ex Samantha Lee.

TMZ reports Gibson – who shares five-year-old daughter Soraya with Lee – was held in contempt of court Monday morning during a hearing over the matter at the Fulton Country court.

The outlet reports Judge Kevin Farmer was upset over Gibson’s refusal to make the monthly $10,000 child support payments the actor was ordered to begin paying in April 2023.

Farmer held Gibson in contempt of court Monday, and the Fast & Furious actor was placed in handcuffs by the bailiff and taken out of the courtroom, TMZ reports.

The judge offered Gibson the chance to resolve the issue and avoid jail time if he paid $73,000. That figure includes Samantha’s attorney fees, which total $7,500.

The Fulton Country Public Information Officer has since shared with The New York Post that Gibson was ‘released’ after he was ‘temporarily detained’ for being in contempt of court.

The Director of Communications at the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office also confirmed with the publication that the actor is not in custody.

Gibson wed Lee in 2017 and a year later they welcomed their daughter Soraya. In 2020 they announced they were ending their marriage.

Tyrese was previously married to Norma Gibson with whom he has 17-year-old daughter Shayla Somer Gibson. The couple divorced in 2009.
