Jennifer Hudson and David Otunga’s Custody Battle Headed to Trial

The legal battle between “The Voice” star, #JenniferHudson and WWE’s, David Otunga, is heading to trial in an attempt to settle the former couple’s custody battle, once and for all. 

In court documents obtained by The Blast, an Illinois judge scheduled a five day trial for March 11, where the two will duke it out to see who will receive primary custody and who should pay the support. 

Back in 2017, Hudson filed an emergency order of protection, accusing Otunga of putting hands on her while she was holding their son. Though she later dropped the petition, the two have been embroiled in a custody battle ever since, complete with allegations of kidnapping, defamation and even arguments over the choice of school bus stops.

Now, the two will have a chance to settle the issue in front of a judge at the top of the new year.
