A New Update Has Been Made Public Regarding Post Malone’s Custody Battle

This week, Post Malone’s ex-fiancée, Hee Sung “Jamie” Park, officially dropped her request for primary custody of their child in California, according to TMZ.

The outlet reports that Park originally filed the paperwork nearly three months ago, shortly after relocating to California.

Some unnamed sources claim that Park moved from their home in Utah to California after her breakup with Malone to establish residency and potentially sue for more child support.

California laws often allow for higher child support payments.

What We Know So Far

Malone and Park welcomed their child together in May 2022, but the pair split up in late 2024.

According to Billboard, not long after Park relocated to Los Angeles, the “I Had Some Help” singer initially agreed to a shared custody arrangement. The plan involved moving their child (who is identified as DDP in court documents) between California and Utah every two weeks.

However, things took a turn after Malone learned that Park was planning to file for primary physical custody and change their daughter’s residence to California.

In court documents, Malone accused Park of misleading the Los Angeles judge by not disclosing that their daughter had lived in Utah for nearly her entire life.

He claimed that Park had “rushed to enroll” their daughter in various activities in an effort to strengthen her ties to California.

Malone also pointed out that their daughter’s nanny, doctor, daycare, music classes, and swimming lessons are all based in Utah.

“I do intend to work cooperatively with Jamie to ensure that DDP has frequent and equal custodial time with her mother,” Malone wrote.

“I do not consent to Jamie’s back door attempt to change DDP’s residence from Utah to California. I request that the California court admonish Jamie for her lack of candor, gamesmanship in attempting to forum shop, and her intentional action to try to mislead the court about DDP’s home.”

Now that Park’s filing has been dismissed, the custody case will continue in the state of Utah.

According to her now-dismissed filing, Park is requesting joint legal custody and visitation rights for Malone. But she wants primary physical custody of their daughter.

As for Malone, the documents he filed in Utah are sealed. It’s unclear what specific custody arrangement he is seeking for their three-year-old.
