Hip-pop star Chance the Rapper is asking a judge to grant his ex-girlfriend minimum child support because she is able bodied and “capable of full-time employment”. Their 2-year-old daughter Kensli is old enough to attend daycare while her mother works full-time.
The rapper, whose real name is Chancelor Bennett, recently separated from Kirsten Corley and they are in the process of establishing separate residences.
Chance, 23, also asked the court to seal his personal information from the prying eyes of gossip blogs.
Despite asking the judge to grant Corley minimal child support, Chance’s lawyer assured the court that he isn’t expecting his child to live like a pauper while he lives lavishly.
In June, Corley dropped her petition for a more formal parenting schedule for their daughter. She reportedly withdrew the petition in June after she and Chance got back together.
