Kandi Burruss' estranged husband, Todd Tucker, is firing back at her claim he's living rent-free in her guest home, saying she's the one who kicked him out of the main house without notice. Tucker filed court docs responding to Burruss' claim he was essentially squatting in the guest home, admitting he was living there but only because Burruss "unilaterally removed" him from the main home by directing her family members to relocate his stuff without his consent.

Why it matters

This dispute between the former couple highlights the ongoing tensions and custody battles that can arise during a high-profile celebrity divorce, with both sides making accusations against the other over living arrangements and financial responsibilities for their children.

The details

In his filing, Tucker said he did not voluntarily leave the home, but did not fight Burruss about it in order to 'preserve peace and stability.' Tucker alleges that before the split, they both added money into a bank account to use for expenses, but after the separation, Burruss told him she would stop using the account and would pay all the bills herself. Tucker claims Burruss is now "weaponizing" this financial arrangement against him.
