Former Real Housewives of Atlanta husband, Todd Tucker, is reportedly “demanding primary custody” of the two children he shares with Kandi Burruss.
Todd’s counterclaim for divorce also demanded a “division of all marital assets between the parties.”
Legal deets:
According to Us Weekly, Todd filed a response to the divorce petition that Kandi filed.
He said their two children are currently in his care and residing with him in Georgia,. Kandi, he claimed, is handling “out-of-state work obligations.”
Todd said that Kandi’s work obligations, “will continue to require her to be away from the children for at least the next several months.”
His filing noted, “The parties have been working cooperatively in an effort to resolve all issues. [Todd] remains committed to continuing those discussions in good faith.”
Todd’s got a plan:
“In the hopefully unlikely event” that Kandi and Todd are unable to reach a custody deal, he will be seeking primary physical custody, joint legal custody, and final decision-making authority.”
He proposed, “[Kandi] having substantial time and meaningful access to the children.” Tucker’s lawyer praised Burruss as a mother. His filing noted, “[Tucker] wishes to make clear that he recognizes [Burruss] as a loving and capable parent and remains sincerely hopeful that prior and continued discussions between the parties will bring full resolution of all matters.”
ICYMI:
Less than two weeks ago, Kandi revealed she filed for divorce from Todd after 11 years of marriage. “After deep thought and a lot of prayer, I’ve made the decision to move forward with a divorce.”
“This is a difficult and emotional time, but my focus remains on protecting my peace, being the best mother I can be, and co-parenting with love and respect.”
