Producer Swizz Beatz may have been at the center of a ‘sexting’ scandal recently but he can put that aside for a minute and breathe easier now that his childsupport dispute with a UK based singer has been settled.
Back in 2009, SwizzBeatz flew to London with Alicia Keys to take a paternity test that later revealed that Swizz fathered a child by a Russian singer by the name of Zhanna Andrianova. Swizz met Zhanna in a club in 2007 and their daughter, who is now 3 years old, was born in 2008. Since that time, Swizz and Zhanna have been in the midst of a child support battle that was delayed by difficulties in Zhanna obtaining a visa to come to the US for court appearances as well as her refusal to accept a settlement a year ago. The dispute was recently settled for an undisclosed, out-of-court agreement which included her $42,000 legal fees.
Swizz has four children: Kasseem Dean Jr with ex-wife Mashonda; Prince Nasir with ex-girlfriend Nicole Levy; Nicole with Zhanna Adrianova; and Egypt with wife Alicia Keys.
Last year, Swizz Beatz cleared up his $334,000 child support debt to ex-wife MaShonda and the two have had a somewhat low-drama relationship ever since.
According to his attorney, Swizz Beatz is a good father and will always provides for his family.
“Mr. Dean has never failed to deliver on his responsibility to his children.”
I know he didn't think at one time that this child wasn't his? Please tell me this is not the case! That little girl looks JUST like him!!! Wow! She's just as cute as she can be! I'm glad he takes care of his kids! Hopefully, Swizz and the child's mother can be a bit more cordial to one another in the future. I hope he's cordial to all of his children's Mothers PERIOD! Wow. Four kids by four different women. Don't know if I could do it myself, but hey, to each his or her own.
I didn't know he had all them kids, I thought he just had two.. She does look just like him. There should be no question about whether he was the father or not.
