Rumer Willis and Derek Richard Thomas custody dispute

Overview

Actress Rumer Willis and musician Derek Richard Thomas are engaged in a legal dispute regarding the custody of their three-year-old daughter, Louetta. Following a court ruling in California that granted Willis temporary primary physical custody, Willis relocated to Nashville, Tennessee, describing the move as a ‘leap of faith.’

During the proceedings, Willis alleged ‘incessant domestic violence’ by Thomas. In response to these claims, Thomas filed a declaration in the Los Angeles Superior Court denying drug use and describing Willis’s allegations as ‘materially false and misleading.’

Thomas has requested that the court maintain the existing arrangement, which provides him parenting time every other weekend, and has sought restrictions to prevent Willis from removing the child from California or enrolling her in school without his consent. He further alleged that Willis has used supervised visitation periods as a negotiating chip.
