The French artist says he obtained custody of his son in March 2024, after his ex-wife attempted “financial blackmail” against him, reports 20 minutes. According to him, she would not have supported the divorce proceedings. Nekfeu says he is “humiliated” and “all the more saddened” by these accusations, because he says he believes “firmly in the need to make the voices of women victims of violence heard.”

The young father adds that he provided evidence to the police, including messages and testimonies from relatives of his ex-wife, to demonstrate, according to him, the unfounded nature of the accusations.

Disappearance of the child

Furthermore, via his lawyer, the musician reveals in particular that his ex-wife was arrested this Sunday evening “for the worrying disappearance” of his 3-year-old son, at the very moment when the press release implicating him appeared, reports 20 minutes.

According to the prosecutor’s office, three complaints for violence filed by the ex-wife between September 2023 and May 2024 were dismissed. An investigation nevertheless remains open for “for forgery and use of forgery since May 2024” concerning documents that the rapper would have submitted to previous procedures. (jah)
