Mel Gibson‘s former partner, Oksana Grigorieva, wants the actor to pay her almost 10 times the US$5000 ($5465) a month he currently pays her in child support.
Oksana, who is the mother of Mel’s nine-month-old child, Lucia, has requested a US judge increase Mel’s child support payments from US$5000 a month to more than US$40,000 ($43,700), TMZ.com reported.
The 40-year-old mother of two currently receives payments of US$2500 ($2730) a month in child support from Timothy Dalton, the father of her first child, 13-year-old Alexander.
In July this year, eight voicemail messages exchanged between the pair were leaked to the public, in which Mel launched a number of insults towards Oksana.
