Nipsey Hussle’s ex, Tanisha Foster, has been granted a visitation schedule following a battle with the late rapper’s family over custody of their 14-year-old daughter, Emani.
According to court records obtained by RadarOnline.com, there was a recent court hearing regarding the custody dispute between Tanisha and Nipsey Hussle’s brother and sister over the child’s guardianship.
Nipsey Hussle’s family has had custody of Emani since his untimely death in 2019. At the time, Tanisha agreed to this arrangement because of her “financial limitations.”
Her lawyer said, “Tanisha’s motivation for doing so was in recognition of her own financial limitations; her desire to maintain the standard of living and family contact the minor had experienced with the paternal family prior to her father’s death; and upon the verbal assurances that each of them would act in the best interests of Emani.”
Tanisha accused Nipsey’s family of reneging on their promise to prioritize Emani’s well-being, claiming they used their “financial position and influence to disregard their priorities by controlling the desires of Emani and Tanisha by withholding financial assistance and reducing visitation.”
She said, “I have continued to be an active part of Emani’s life. She spends the night with me often, I take her to school, and I continue to do the things a parent would do with their child. I am very unhappy that the guardians will not take my calls. They have blocked me on their cell phones. I have to go through a third party or Emani to communicate with the guardians.”
“There are no circumstances or events in my life that would disqualify me from regaining my exclusive role as Emani’s parent. There is no longer any need for guardianship. Emani routinely asks me when are she and I going to be able to live together. She longs to be with me as her mother. I am begging the court to terminate the existing guardianship,” Tanisha wrote.
Nipsey Hussle’s family argued that Tanisha is unfit as a parent, citing her history of alcohol-related issues and a reported incident where she allegedly assaulted someone in front of Emani.
According to reports, they’re looking to have custody of Emani and control over her inheritance, as she and Nipsey’s son Kross are the sole beneficiaries of his estate. The judge will decide on guardianship after an October hearing.
A court order has granted Tanisha extra visitation with Emani, including picking her up from school twice a week for over 2 hours. This arrangement remains in place until a final decision is made in the case.
The court order mandates that all parties must avoid making negative comments about each “other, either directly or indirectly, to Emani, “Each party must also not permit anyone else to make such remarks in the child’s presence.”
