Sherri Shepherd went after both her exes, Lamar Sally and Jeff Tarpley, in a Twitter rant on Tuesday.
“How many ex husbands does it take to get money from a single mom. Two. #dumb and #dumber #getalife #getajob,” she wrote on Twitter after sending out a series of tweets about her on-going child support case with Sally.
In December, Sally filed a petition to increase child support for the couple’s son, Lamar Sally Jr. He claimed at the time the 2-year-old, who was born via a donor egg and surrogate, suffers from a medical condition requiring treatment.
However, Shepherd’s rep said on Tuesday that Sally’s request for more money was denied.
“Shepherd had a huge victory in the California family court,” the 49-year-old’s rep said in a statement to People, “Sally and his counsel were humiliated as the judge flat out denied his request and politely asked Sally to be seated in the audience, away from counsel table so he could properly dispose of the matter.”
The statement continues, “The California judge agreed with Shepherd’s counsel Terry Levich Ross, Esq. and determined that by Sally’s own agreement in two separate legal judgments, New Jersey has exclusive and ongoing jurisdiction over this child support issue and all matters must be dealt with only in that state. The amount of child support Shepherd is currently paying her ex-husband is more than New Jersey has required her to pay, so if Sally wanted to revisit the matter in a New Jersey court he would likely face having his payments reduced substantially. Shepherd now hopes that her ex will stop his frivolous attempts to get more money out of her and will seek gainful employment to take care of his child like any other capable parent.”
Sally is currently receiving $4,100 a month from Shepherd.
After the statement was released, the former “View” co-host took to Twitter to address her ex.
“For the record … I always offered to financially care for my ex-husband’s son. What he was demanding was not fair & allowed him to not work,” she wrote.”My ex-husband says he works part-time 20-30 hours a week. I work a min of 15-hours a day. I have always had to hustle to take care of mine.”
She then claimed her first husband Tarpley was feeding Sally information.
“Sorry for all ex-husband tweets. I picked ‘em & accept consequences of bad choices …but never in my wildest dreams did I think they were 👀,” she wrote, adding that she wanted “a fair decision and not made to pay an amount borne from greed and deception.”
She ended the rant saying she needed to log off Twitter before Sally “hauls me back in court for making him look like a gold digger.”
