Divorces are never easy, but when you are 8 months pregnant and hard up on cash - it's even harder. Kelis claims that her soon-to-be ex-husband, Nas, has done just that-left her penniless while carrying his child.
"I have run out of money", said Kelis, "my survival is based on [Nas'] will at this time. If he does not want to pay for an expense, it does not get paid."
During her 4 year marriage to Nasir Jones, the Milkshake singer grew accustomed to a certain lifestyle. According to TMZ, the hip-hop couple shared five homes, traveled first class and dined at the finest restaurants. Since separating from Nas, Kelis no longer lives in the lap of luxury and that, she says, is problematic.
"There were many expensive pieces [of jewelry] such as a princess-cut diamond tennis bracelet that was recently appraised for $190,000. My engagement ring is an approximately nine-carat cushion-cut diamond solitaire. I have numerous watches...such as Cartier, Rolex, Frank Muller and Chopard," explained the 29 year-old songstress.
Kelis, with the aid of her legal team, is demanding from her estranged husband child support, spousal support, all pregnancy related expenses and half of all medical expenses once the baby is born.
In addition, Kelis wants 3,500$ for a baby nurse and 20,000$ for cribs, strollers and baby supplies.
On his part, Nas has denied Kelis' claims for spousal and child support.
