Dr. Dre’s ex-wife Nicole Young says she is unable to fight the billionaire in court as she has no income coming in at the moment.
According to court documents obtained by Radar, Nicole is demanding the court order Dre cough up $4,051,541 to help her cover her legal fees.
In the docs, Nicole says she needs $551k for legal fees from July 3, 2021, to September 30, 2021. She also wants $3.5 million for future fees in fighting Dre as part of their $1 billion divorce.
Dre’s ex also needs $215k to appeal decisions in the case and another $100k to comb through his finances.
In the docs, Nicole says her ex continues to engage in “emotional, physical and financial abuse.” She says “since the commencement of these proceedings, Andre – whose net worth is in the hundreds of millions – armed himself with a large, expensive team of attorneys from multiple firms.”
She accuses him and his team of using “hardball litigation tactics” as she fights to have their prenuptial agreement thrown out. Nicole believes she is entitled to half of Dre’s estate. He scoffs at the suggestion claiming they had a prenup that lays out what she receives.
