POST MALONE'S EX-FIANCEE JAMIE PARK THROWS IN THE TOWEL: CHILD CUSTODY BATTLE HEATS UP!

Get ready for a juicy update on one of Hollywood's most dramatic custody battles! Post Malone's ex-fiancée, Hee Sung "Jamie" Park, has surprisingly filed to dismiss their child custody case in Los Angeles, just weeks after the Grammy-nominated rapper submitted an emotional declaration in court.

For those who've been keeping up with this whirlwind romance-turned-legal-battle, recall that Post and Jamie welcomed their adorable daughter in 2022. The couple's relationship came to a screeching halt in November 2024 when they split, prompting both parties to file for custody in the states of Utah and California.

Now, it appears Jamie has thrown in the towel, effectively ending her quest for full physical custody and joint legal custody in California. But don't think this means Post is off the hook just yet! The rapper-turned-country-star's legal battle with his ex is far from over, as they continue to duke it out in Utah.

So, what's behind Jamie's sudden change of heart? Sources close to the situation claim she realized that sticking to her guns might not be worth the fight. After all, California law allows for higher child support payments – a significant factor considering Post's newfound freedom after his recent split from girlfriend Christy Lee.

As the custody battle rages on in Utah, where Post had been splitting 50/50 custody with Jamie as a hands-on dad, it remains to be seen how this will all play out. Will Post's emotional declaration in court have any bearing on the outcome? Or will Jamie's new filing change the game entirely?

For those who've followed this saga, you might recall that Post initially filed for her case to be tossed when he claimed she only pursued custody in Los Angeles for strategic advantages. His attorney, Laura Wasser, pointed out that their daughter already has a number of essential ties to Utah – including her nanny, pediatrician, and even music, physical education, and swimming classes.

Jamie's original filing sought full physical custody, but she was open to giving Post visitation rights (aka "parenting time"). In her latest legal documents, submitted last month to the Los Angeles Superior Court's family law division, Jamie refers to their daughter simply as DDP – a nickname that has left fans both amused and intrigued.

As for child support, Jamie is reportedly seeking significant payments from Post. Her court filing demands that he cover her legal costs, stating: "The court may make orders for support of the children and issue an earnings assignment without further notice to either party."

The custody battle will continue in Utah, where Post filed because that is where he had been splitting 50/50 custody with his ex as a hands-on dad. That's where Park had been living before she moved to California at the beginning of the year

Post's response? He remains mum on the matter, having recently submitted sealed custody documents in Utah but yet to respond to Jamie's new filing. Will this quiet period be a sign of things to come?
