Last month after Dwyane Wade's ex-wife Siohvaughn filed papers in court accusing Dwyane of alienating her from her sons, details from Siohvaughn child support order leaked claiming she received a $1 million settlement plus $25k a month [click here if you missed that].
In a recent interveiw Siohvaughn says that's a lie...
Jocks and Stiletto Jill got in touch with Siovaughn and sets the record straight.
Jill:
Is there a discrepancy between what you are receiving from Dwyane each month as part of your divorce settlement and what has been reported? There were reports of you receiving $1 million plus $25K a month in spousal support.SFW:
There has been no settlement PERIOD. Not even close to the $25k a month reported either. As a matter of fact, Mr. Wade is frequently late on the items he is supposed to pay for. I’ve recently received a noticed about the mortgage on my Chicago home being behind $75,000 and my car insurance has been canceled.Jill:
Ok, so why aren’t you working?SFW:
I’m currently in law school, the course doesn’t really allow for me to have a full time job.Jill:
Has law school always been a goal or did this come following the issues you’ve had with your lawyers during the caseSFW:
It has always been something I wanted to do. I put my life on hold when Mr. Wade’s career took off. I raised our son. Even now Mr. Wade is practicing alienation with our children. He’s trying to prevent me from seeing my son’s on Mother’s Day this weekend. Usually the boys fly to Chicago to spend it with me but this year Mr. Wade wants to change that.Jill:
That’s interesting considering the Heat play the Bulls this weekend in Chicago. Why do you think he wants to alienate your sons from you. What is the all the “animosity” stemming from?SFW:
It’s about control. He wants to control me, that’s what abusers do. And it’s about money. He wants to create the image of a good family guy for his sponsors, he’ll do anything for money.Jill:
So you feel all of his actions are to prevent him from paying you spousal support and child support?SFW:
It’s all about money.Jill:
Do you think there is a way that you and Dwyane can come together and co-parent without being so reliant on courts and lawyers? If yes, what are those steps in your mind? If he retains custody, would you consider moving back to Miami to be closer to your sons?SFW:
Move to Miami for what? He won’t let me see my sons now so there’s no reason to believe he would if i was in Miami full time. And it’s reached a point now where my oldest son doesn’t want to visit at all. My youngest has been told I don’t want to see them. The other day he got on the phone with me and said he was told that I didn’t want to come see him. I have finals, I’m trying to grow as a person. Mr. Wade is vindictive and he’s trying to turn my sons against me.
I paid out of my own pocket for a mediator to try to resolve the issues. The session was set and Mr. Wade just didn’t show up. No excuse, no call. I’ve made the effort.Read the entire interview here.
