Michael Strahan’s ex-wife wants him to cough up more than $500,000 in back child support and as part of their deal to split their twin daughters’ pricey horseback-riding lessons, according to a new report.
The former NFL star-turned-TV host and Jean Strahan have been duking it out in New York and North Carolina courts over their custody agreement — with Jean seeking more than $547,000 from him, TMZ reported.
That total includes half of the $450,802 Jean says she’s paid in lessons for accomplished riders Sophia and Isabella, 14, since 2017, as well as $321,654 in back child support she believes she’s owed.
The former couple, who married in 1999 and divorced in 2006, hammered out a child support agreement with Michael paying $18,000 a month. That amount was decreased to just under $13,000 in 2009, TMZ said.
But now, Jean is seeking $18,378-a-month, saying her ex’s monthly income is significantly higher thanks to his lucrative gigs on “Fox NFL Sunday” and “Good Morning America.”
The mom also said she and Michael had an agreement to split costs of the girls’ horseback-riding lessons, which he’s allegedly reneged on.
She originally filed a money judgement in New York Supreme Court on July 10, but the couple has a contemporaneous case in North Carolina.
Jean’s lawyer had no comment, while one for Michael didn’t immediately return a message.
