“I am not the father”: Lil Wayne denies recent paternity claim, demands new paternity trial
There’s a woman who claims Lil Wayne is the father of her 15-year-old son, but the rapper, who has been ordered to pay child support, has said he is not the father of the teenager.
Louisiana native Keiotia Watson filed a paternity case against Lil Wayne in 2015. he claims they had sex in June 2001 and she became pregnant shortly after. However, she didn’t start seeking child support until August 2015. That’s when she filed a court order stating Wayne was her son’s, Dwayne Brown, father. Wayne never responded at the time.
In October 2015, Keiotia filed for a default judgment. Since Wayne never responded, a judge ordered Wayne to pay her $5,000/month in child support (which was to begin January 2016) and he also was ordered to cover the child’s health insurance.
Lil Wayne is adamant about paying the child support before it has even been confirmed that he’s the biological father. He is now requesting a new trail in the paternity case. In the documents he recently filed, he’s requesting to have the child support payments set aside until he’s proven that he is the biological father.
Wayne claims he never slept with the woman. Also, the father-of-four said he didn’t show up to court because he was not properly served the first time.
Wayne stated in his declaration:
“I did not engage in a sexual relationship with Keiotia Watson in June of 2001 or at any other time”.
“In June of 2001 I was residing in New Orleans, but my professional commitments required me to travel a great deal throughout the United States. I do not believe it is possible that I am the biological father of Dwayne Brown. I have never acknowledged Dwayne Brown as my son, nor was I ever made aware of his birth until I was served with the petition” filed in August.”
“I am the loving father of four (4) children, all of whom I provided support for since birth. Up until now, I have never been involved in a child support case.”
A hearing has been scheduled for next month
