Chris Brown child payment war heats up

Nia Guzman's mother has got involved in her and Chris Brown's war over child payments.

The 'Loyal' hitmaker - who found out he had fathered a daughter, Royalty, with Nia earlier this year - has hit back at the 31-year-old model's mother after she claimed Chris wasn't worried about his daughter's safety.

Nia's mother wrote on Instagram: "She needs security even when she is with Nia. She needs to go to a private school and she needs to live in a gated community for his own daughter's safety!...period! (sic)"

The 26-year-old star then went on a rant, insisting "no kid needs 4k a week".

He wrote: "Obviously you aren't looking out for my daughter by putting personal issues up on Instagram. I'm not gonna be disrespectful and rude about this becuz I know and they know I provide and take care of my daughter equally. I work and have a job and so will the mother. I actually stepped up to the plate to be a father and havent complained once. And deep down you known yall on some bs. Not here to bash anyone or be confrontational.

"I filed for joint custody. "EQUAL" custody. No kid needs 4k a week. Especially when I have her 2weeks out of the month. So this is the last time im ever saying my peace on the issue. Let the courts handle everything else so we can handle the matter as civil adults. Telling all your business is childish and is not setting a good loving environment for ROYALTY. I have no ill intentions and I love my daughter. #godbless (sic)"
