Damian Lillard, the NBA star, took a cautious approach to his marriage to his college sweetheart, Kay’La Lillard, by having her sign an ironclad prenuptial agreement five days before they tied the knot. The prenup was designed to protect Lillard’s finances and assets in the event of a divorce.
In court, Lillard has made it clear that he wants the prenup to be followed exactly as it is written to ensure that the divorce proceedings are as smooth and hassle-free as possible. This move shows Lillard’s understanding of the importance of taking precautions in such matters and his desire for a fair and equitable separation in the unlikely event of a divorce. Radar Online has more details.
Damian Lillard shocked fans when the NBA star filed for divorce from his longtime love, Kay’La Lillard, earlier this week. While details surrounding the split — like kids and custody — were unknown, RadarOnline.com has obtained the divorce documents and can reveal an ironclad prenup was signed just days before they walked down the aisle, and the Milwaukee Bucks player is demanding it be enforced.
In the legal documents filed in Clackamas County Circuit Court, Oregon, on Monday, Damian included, “The parties signed a valid and enforceable Premarital Agreement on August 30, 2021,” just five days before their September 4th wedding.
The prenup covers everything from the financial responsibility of their three children to property, attorney fees, and any debts.
“The parties’ respective obligations for financial support of the children should be determined pursuant to the Premarital Agreement or, alternatively, pursuant to the Oregon Child Support Guidelines, including any applicable rebuttal factors, support be awarded appropriately for the benefit of the minor children and for any child qualified as a ‘child attending school’ pursuant to ORS 107.108 or successor statute,” the docs read.
“Each of the parties should be required to pay an appropriate share, as determined by the Premarital Agreement, of all uninsured and uncovered medical, psychological, psychiatric, counseling, hospital, prescription, optical, dental, and orthodontic expenses of the children of the parties for so long as a support obligation exists for the benefit of the children,” Damian’s filing continues.
The docs make it clear — they are on their own regarding attorney fees, UNLESS one of them fights the prenup. If Kay’La decides to contest their agreement, Damian wants her to pay his legal fees.
“Pursuant to the terms of the Premarital Agreement, each party should be required to pay his or her respective attorney fees and costs in this dissolution action, except to the extent that one of the parties contests the validity of the Premarital Agreement. If Respondent contests the validity of the Premarital Agreement and/or if Petitioner is required to seek enforcement of the Premarital Agreement, then Petitioner should be awarded his reasonable attorney fees incurred to enforce the Premarital Agreement, plus his costs and expenses to hire experts and otherwise for investigation, deposition, and trial preparation related thereto,” the documents state.
Lillard also wants Kay’La to drop his last name and go back to Kay’La Hanson.
Cold world.
