Steve Nash’s ex-wife Alejandra wants to move to Los Angeles so that the kids can be closer to their father. Nash really doesn’t want that to happen.
The NBA player isn’t against being closer to his kids ( he did choose the Lakers over the Knicks for family reasons ) but he doesn’t want to pay any additional child support. If his ex-wife and his children move to California he will likely be obligated to fork over more cash every month to support his family.
Nash reportedly pays 90% of all of his children’s medical, school and extracurricular activities as well as the majority of the nanny’s salary. Alejandra wants her ex-husband to pay more in child support but the NBA player argues that Alejandra is a millionaire in her own right and believes that he already gives more than enough.
A judge ruled in favor of Nash earlier this month but Alejandra has already filed an appeal. She’s also reportedly looking for a place in Los Angeles so that she can get a leg up in the child support battle.
Nash said that he doesn’t want the family to move to California because he isn’t certain how long he will be with the Los Angeles Lakes and he doesn’t want to uproot the family again. Alejandra, however, says that Nash is using his career is a smokescreen and that the real reason he doesn’t want the family to move west is because it would require him to pay more money in child support.
According to TMZ , a judge has issued a restraining order forbidding Alejandra to move into California until the trial next week.
