Tyrese Gibson has been 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.

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

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.

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.
Gibson had been making payments to Lee. However, it has not been the $10,000 figure the judge ordered him to begin making last year.

Tyrese Gibson has been paying his ex around $2,200 every month as of 2023.
Insiders said Gibson is currently in the process of sorting out the $73K payment
