Rachel Lindsay responds to her estranged husband Bryan Abasolo's plea
According to RadarOnline, Lindsay is asking a judge to deny Bryan Abasolo's request to cover his legal fees in the ongoing divorce and instead require Abasolo to make the payments himself.
In addition, she has stated that she hoped to settle their divorce “quietly and without court intervention.” In addition, Lindsay stated that she still hopes to achieve this “through a global settlement, which will take place shortly.”
“In the meantime, Bryan continues to live in Rachel's house, for which Rachel is responsible for 90% of all costs,” her lawyer said. Laura Waters, is said to have been claimed.
According to the outlet, Lindsay has not yet responded to Abasolo's general request for spousal support. The outlet adds that she “did not check the boxes to deny his request for support.” However, she also did not “check the box to award him support.” Instead, she reportedly listed “Is set” to their recently submitted response.
A brief summary of the couple's divorce proceedings so far
As The Shade Room previously reported, Abasolo filed for divorce from Lindsay in January after four years of marriage. At the time, Abasolo gave the separation date as December 31, 2023.
At that time, it became known that Abasolo wanted to obtain spousal support from Lindsay.
He also spoke about his decision on social media.
A few days after the divorce news surfaced, Lindsay broke her silence on the matter, according to The Shade Room.
“It's obviously a difficult time – if you've read the headlines… you're probably wondering why I should even be working,” she said on her podcast Higher Learning. “But to be honest, I need to take my mind off myself and the best way to do that is to do something I love…”
Lindsay stated at the time that she would comment further publicly on the matter at a later date.
Earlier this month, according to The Shade Room, Abasolo demanded emergency child support from Lindsay. At the time, Abasolo demanded that Lindsay cover at least $75,000 of his legal fees. In addition, Abasolo claimed that his monthly income was low compared to Lindsay's, so he would also need her help moving out of their shared home in Los Angeles, California.
“Rachel and I live together in our family residence, but neither of us wishes to continue living together. Our current living situation is very uncomfortable and strained. I would like to move out of our family residence as soon as possible, but maintaining our standard of living is not financially feasible at this time,” he reportedly explained.
