Kandi Burruss’ Ex Speaks on Estranged Relationship With Their Daughter and Justifies Not Paying Youngster Assist
If it’s one thing we know about Kandi Burruss, she’s about her business and is quite savvy at it. Outside of juggling music and several businesses, The Real Housewives of Atlanta star is a married mother of four. The father of her eldest daughter is music executive Russell “Block” Spencer. The singer and songwriter claims he’s been an absentee father and sued him for backed child support. In a recent interview, Block justified why he didn’t pay the court ordered support and spoke about his relationship with their daughter.

Kandi Burruss sues for backed child support and speaks about daughter’s lack of relationship with Block
Burruss sued Block for backed child support in 2021, claiming he owed $92,000. During the Season 13 reunion of RHOA, she provided an update on the case. “They basically say he got to pay his back child support, so they’re giving him some time to give a lump sum now, and then he has to start paying the monthly back,” she said.
But fans were critical of Burruss’ decision to even hunt Block down for the funds considering her wealth. Burruss said the money was owed to their daughter. “Riley wanted it. She said that’s her money, and it was owed to her. It’s not like I was going to get new money or something,” she explained.

Block explains why he and Kandi Burruss didn’t work
Outside of the child support issue, Block says Burruss was bitter that their relationship didn’t work out. According to him, he was in an on-again-off-again relationship with his wife when he met Burruss and that Burruss was his “side chick.” When she became pregnant, he alleges she wanted him to leave his wife for her.
Burruss has denied such and claims she wasn’t aware that he was in a relationship. She also claims his wife didn’t want to accept Riley.
