Jill Scott and her estranged husband Michael Dobson are still embroiled in a heated legal battle and it doesn’t look like they’ll be resolving their issues anytime soon. In fact, the two are even scheduled to have a relatively uneventful Valentine’s Day since they’ll be spending their time in court. But apparently, there’s an issue Dobson felt the need to address prior to their court appearance. According to Bossip, Dobson recently filed a motion to request a restraining order against his soon-to-be ex-wife. The 49-year-old reportedly feels the singer has been taking subliminal jabs at him on social media although they are not supposed to be speaking publicly about the pending divorce.
Social Media Drama?:
On multiple occasions, Jill Scott has shared posts on social media that have Dobson wondering if she’s really talkin’ to him. He claims the “Golden” singer has slammed him and members of his family. He has also accused Scott of calling him a con artist and making statements about his sexual orientation. “Sometimes the juice ain’t worth the squeeze,” Scott posted, according to Dobson’s court docs. On Sept 27, she is said to have posted a meme that read, “Yoooo somebody may say you just gave up. Maybe you just…woke up.”
Although Dobson can’t speak publicly, insiders claim he’s determined not to let Scott get the best of him. “He’s not going to let Scott disgrace him,” said an insider. “Michael still loves Jill. He has always felt like she’s his ‘ride or die’ throughout their relationship.”
Pay Up Or Shut Up:
The latest reports about Dobson’s restraining order follow details about his financial demands. For those who missed it, reports have revealed Dobson is demanding a whopping $500,000 from his wife. He is also asking to have their prenuptial agreement tossed out because he’d been pressured to sign the agreement. Dobson claims Scott’s attorney pressured him to sign the documents three weeks prior to their wedding. He even admitted that he didn’t have an attorney review the documents. While there are always two sides to a story and there may be some truth to Dobson’s claims, it is unclear whether or not a judge will rule in his favor.
