Angela Simmons Quietly Fighting Custody Battle Before the Death of Her Son's Father


This week Sutton Tennyson, the father of Angela Simmons son, was murdered in the driveway of his home in Southwest Atlanta in broad daylight [click here if you missed that].

Now comes word that the former couple had been quietly fighting a bitter custody battle where she accused him of domestic violence...

From Page Six
...just four days before Tennyson was killed in a drive-by shooting that’s being investigated as a homicide, the ex-couple were in Manhattan Family Court on Oct. 30, a source told The Post.
“It wasn’t lovey dovey, there’s a reason people go to court,” the source said. Tennyson was paying around $1,250 a month in child support, but Simmons — the shoe designer daughter of Run D.M.C.’s Rev. Run — wanted more money, the source said.
She’d received temporary custody of Sutton Jr. in July after filing for an order of protection against Tennyson in December 2017, the source said. Simmons had made domestic violence claims against Tennyson in December when the couple split, the source said.
