Cam Newton goes to court seeking primary custody of his four kids with Kia Proctor
Former NFL quarterback Cam Newton claims ex Kia Proctor has substance abuse issues and keeps him from their four kids. He wants primary custody.
Cam Newton wants the kids to live with him. The former NFL quarterback has asked a court to give him primary custody of the four children he shares with his ex Kia Proctor.
In fresh court papers Newton raises worries about how Proctor is raising the children. The children are Chosen (2015), Sovereign-Dior (2017), Camidas (2018) and Cashmere (2019).
His claims
Newton says the two currently split custody. He alleges Proctor will not take the children to their activities. He also says she has gotten them to school late many times.
The filing goes further. Newton alleges Proctor has substance abuse issues and that some of it has happened while the kids were around.
He also accuses her of cutting him off from the children "for days at a time" when they are with her. On top of that, he says she will not help the kids build a bond with their half-siblings.
Where things stand
For now the former couple shares custody. Newton pays about $7,500 a month in support.
Proctor has not responded to the filing yet.
