Keke Palmer files for full-custody of newborn son Leodis as she battles ex Darius Jackson in court after nasty split | The Sun

KEKE Palmer has filed for full custody of her son, Leodis Andrellton Jackson.

The Nope star shares her eight-month-old with ex Darius Jackson.


In court documents obtained by TMZ, Keke, 30, didn't reveal too much information on why she decided to file.

According to the news outlet, the docs said that she is "willing to pay expenses of pregnancy and birth" but is asking the court to order Darius to help with "attorney and expert fees."

Earlier on Thursday, Darius shared a picture of him and his son on X, formerly known as Twitter.

"I love you, son. See you soon," he captioned his post.

Back in December, she revealed that she was pregnant when she hosted Saturday Night Live.

SO CUTE!

In February, Keke gave birth to Leodis and announced the good news by sharing a few photos of him in the hospital.

She wrote: "Hey son! Only 48 of being parents!"

"Born during Black History Month, with a name to match," she added and also included a short clip of the new parents with their baby boy at the hospital.

THEIR RELATIONSHIP

Keke preferred to keep her relationship with Darius on the private side.

However, the couple are believed to have been dating for around a year and a half after reportedly meeting at an A-list Memorial Day bash in May 2021.

Darius is believed to have headed to the party, hosted by Diddy and Issa Rae, as a guest of his actor brother Sarunas Jackson, who has appeared on HBO's Insecure alongside both Issa and Keke.

He then confirmed their relationship in August.

However, the two seemingly faced issues when he "shamed" Keke for what she wore to an Usher concert.

WHAT HAPPENED

In July, Keke wore a black bodysuit under a sheer dress to watch the R&B singer perform at his Las Vegas residency.

In a fan video posted on X, Keke could be seen dancing with Usher as he sang to her.

Darius then commented on the video: "It's the outfit tho.. you a mom."

In another statement, he said: "We live in a generation where a man of the family doesn’t want the wife & mother to his kids to showcase booty cheeks to please others & he gets told how much of a hater he is.

"This is my family & my representation. I have standards & morals to what I believe. I rest my case."

'SHUT UP!'

After reading what he said, Keke fans slammed Darius as they accused him of publically shaming his girlfriend.

One tweeted: "Don’t date a baddie if you’re gonna be this insecure," and another added: "Boy shut up."

A third posted: "Not a solid look publicly shaming the mother of your child for her outfit choice."

Yet another user raged: "As a new mom it would be better for you to encourage her as she is building that confidence back."

Others agreed with the sentiment, penning: "Exactly. Just nasty for no reason."

KEKE'S RESPONSE

Back in September, Keke finally spoke out about what Darius said.
