Christina Ricci’s ex-husband James Heerdegen is demanding spousal and child support from the actress following their controversial split.
The ex-husband of Christina Ricci (41, “Matrix Resurrections”), James Heerdegen (39), demands spousal and child support from the actress following the controversial separation.
As “People” further reports, citing the court documents, he was seeking child support for their 7-year-old son, Freddie, and spousal support, and also demanded that Ricci pay his $50,000 attorney fees. He also asked the US star to pay for a forensic accountant, which the documents also list as $50,000.
“James is in dire need of an expense coverage as he has no savings left, not even his pension, having used it up on legal fees, rent payments and security deposits,” the filing reads. “Without alimony, James expects he will soon be completely broke and already in debt.”
Not an easy breakup
Ricci filed for divorce from Heerdegen in July 2020. The two married in 2013 following meeting on the set of Pan Am (2011). Their son was born in August 2014. In January 2021, Ricci obtained a domestic violence restraining order once morest her estranged husband. In April 2021, the two agreed on a custody arrangement for their young son.
Cristina Ricci has been married to hairstylist Mark Hampton since October 2021. Two months earlier, they announced that they were expecting their first child together. Daughter Cleopatra Ricci Hampton was born in early December.
