In the latest installment of Melanie "Mel B" Brown and Stephen Belafonte's sordid divorce drama, the "America's Got Talent" judge is now reportedly required to pay her estranged husband $40,000 a month.
Following Belafonte's request for emergency spousal support (to which Brown staunchly replied that he should "get a job"), a judge in Los Angeles recently filed a court-ordered mandate that backs his appeal, TMZ said Friday.
Per the judge's order, Brown must temporarily subsidize a number of Belafonte's living expenses — food, housing, phone, etc. — plus pay him an additional $140,000 to cover his legal fees. She must pay the temporary monthly stipend until the divorce settlement is finalized. .
After nearly 10 years of marriage, Brown filed for divorce from Belafonte in March, 2017. When Brown's allegations of physical and emotional abusesurfaced in early April, she filed for a temporary restraining order against Belafonte.
