Ludacris Jets Out Of LAX+Lisa Wu Wants Her Kids Back

Feb 24 | by Natasha

Luda was spotted jetting out of LAX yesterday:

Is it just me or is he getting cuter with age? And there's more drama in the ATL:

“Real Housewives of Atlanta” co-star Lisa Wu Hartwell filed for primary custody of her two sons with ex-husband and singer Keith Sweat. Last Thursday she petitioned the court to get full custody of her sons. According to the court papers: “The best interest of the minor children will be served by modifying the current custody and visitation provisions to make Mother the primary physical condition of the minor children. Since the time of the Divorce Decree, Mother has remarried, owns a successful business and will provide a stable, loving, and nurturing environment in which she can raise the minor children. Wu is seeking primary physical custody and joint legal custody with final decision-making on all issues regarding the minor children. She will reasonably engage Keith in good faith discussions before any final decisions are made concerning the children's welfare.” Why was Keith given full custody? Well, according to the judge, the children at the time “lacked structure in their lives, due in substantial part to Mother’s numerous business ventures and frequent trips out of town”. The judge stated Lisa has a history of spending money on herself excessively rather than providing for the children. There was also evidence of violence against Lisa by Keith though. Her two sons--Jordan Sweat, age 14, and Justin Sweat, age 11--were given to Keith Sweat in a full custody battle 6 years ago. Lisa says she wants them back, but even though she has a successful business and has remarried, she still wants child support as well. Surprise surprise.

You're right, Tasha. Luda's

You're right, Tasha. Luda's definitely like a fine wine Lisa, I can't help but think you want your kids back to either 1) Be vindictive or 2) Get paid for them. 85% of the time, judges side with the mothers, so if Keith was given custody, it was for a damn good reason

This happened to my ex. He

This happened to my ex. He divorced his wife and sued for custody of their 2 kids (boy & Girl) and won. She got to see the kids every other weekend but he still had to pay her child support becuase he made a lot more money than she did. The mother was educated and drug & alcohol free. The judge - who just happens to be the same judge in Lisa & Keith's custody case - felt like my ex would provide a more stable home environment than the mother because she was shacking up over her kids. Be warned ladies, if you marry a man with more power and money than you, he can take your kids from you if he has a high powered lawyer and you slip-up just one time.

People on here are so willing

People on here are so willing to jump to negative conclusions about people without even fully considering what logically what may have happened. First of all, how do we know this is the first time in the 6 years that she has tried to get full custody of the children? It just says she is seeking custody, not that this is the first time or anything like that. Secondly, "spending excessively on herself", just sounds silly and then because of her "numerous business ventures and trips out of town, sounds like Keith just had a better lawyer than she had in the custody case. He was able to make it appear that her career made her unstable. Believe it or not, it can happen. If you have a man who is willing to put up a fight (with a good enough attorney) and you are a woman with a demanding career, you could find yourself on the losing end of a custody battle, even if you are perfectly capable of caring for your children. Also, Keith's lawyer was probably able to make the abuse seem like it was not an issue at the time of the case. Don't forget what having a really good lawyer can do, you can change the outcome of many situations. Third, I'm sure she is paying child support, the non-custodial parent is always required to if the court gets involved. She is just a woman about it and not like these punk men who complain about financially supporting their own children. Fourth, did it ever occur to any of you that she wanted custody because they are her children and she loves them? It states that there was evidence of abuse against her by Keith. I would not want someone who abused me raising my children and I would fight like hell to get them into my custody. Lastly, why shouldn't she ask for child support if she is going to get custody? Just b/c she has a successful business and a new husband does not negate Keith's financial responsibility to his children, if they are placed in her custody. Therefore, if she is asking for custody, she has every right to ask for child support from him, in the event that she is given custody.
