A reality television personality has formally requested a reduction in his court-ordered child support, citing the apparent cancellation of the long-running series that was his primary source of income.
Newly filed legal documents reveal the individual petitioned the court, stating his financial circumstances have changed drastically. The motion argues that a previous support order was based on monthly earnings of approximately $13,333, largely derived from his participation in a specific television program.
The filing explicitly notes the participant is “no longer earning income” from the show “through no fault of his own,” strongly implying the series has concluded. His current income is now listed as $4,282 per month, stemming from full-time employment at an automotive repair business.
The documents further detail that he sees his two children for 26 days annually, while their mother, who cares for them the remaining 339 days, reportedly earns a similar monthly wage of just over $4,100.
This legal move follows recent social media commentary from another figure associated with the program, who publicly stated “the show canceled, so bye, bye to those checks,” adding to speculation about the series’ fate.
While the network has issued no official confirmation, sources close to the production suggest a climate of uncertainty and frustration among the cast. Insiders report that participants believe the program may be finished, citing a prolonged silence from producers that feels different from past hiatuses.
Some cast members have reportedly expressed dissatisfaction with the show’s creative direction, including editorial choices and the types of stories highlighted. They have allegedly advocated for more relatable content, feeling that compelling material filmed during the latest season was overlooked.
The overall sentiment, according to these sources, is one of frustration, with a feeling that the current situation is unsustainable. The legal filing for reduced support now stands as a tangible financial consequence of the production’s uncertain status.
