Amid Ugly Custody Battle, Jennifer Hudson Now Demanding Estranged Fiancee Get A Job & More
Singer/The Voice judge, Jennifer Hudson, and her retired WWE wrestler husband, David Otunga, seemed like they were “Lost In Love” like New Edition for many years. But as most of us know by now, their relationship came to a screeching halt (at least to the public’s eye) when they recently announced they were separating. They were engaged for 9 years and have an 8 year old son, David Jr., together. Unfortunately, their history as a couple wasn’t strong enough for them to work things out and they have quickly progressed to the ‘bitter separated couple’ phase. They’ve gone back and forth in legal filings, with claims of abuse, slander, defamation, contempt of court requests, etc.
JHud’s Request To Judge
As they continue to battle it out in court over who gets custody of their son and how much child support JHud is gonna have to payout, there’s one thing Jennifer is demanding of David: get a J-O-B. Apparently, David must not have steady work at this time, because here’s what was just reported:
Via TheBlast: According to court documents obtained by The Blast, Hudson told the court, as part of the couple’s contentious custody and support battle over their son, that she plans to file a motion to compel Otunga to “seek employment” and “maintain a job diary.” Hudson will not be filing the motions publicly but will present them to the judge later this month. She will also be seeking an order sealing the entire case.
Jennifer was the bread winner in their relationship and David revealed that he mostly raises their son, due to Jennifer’s hectic work/travel schedule. At this point, David has temporary full custody of David Jr.. So that means that JHud may be ordered to pay out even larger child support checks to David, if he does not find a steady job.

It was also reported that Hudson filed another request to have David’s contempt of court notion dropped. He recently requested that she be held in contempt of court, for violating the gag order they both have, regarding the details of their relationship. David said it was Jennifer who wanted the gag order, but instead broke the agreement by talking about him in interviews.
David Otunga Has Many Career Paths To Choose From
By the way, not sure what David’s long-term career will be, but he has quite a few choices with his many professions. He’s a professional bodybuilder, a WWE commentator and he has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology. He is also a Harvard Law graduate and an attorney licensed to practice law in the state of Illinois. We’re not done, Otunga was said to have once worked at Columbia University’s Cognitive Neuroscience Center. In addition to those career paths, on January 23, 2018, David surprised his Instagram followers with a post stating that he is a “doctor”…
Not sure which type of doctor David is, but at least that means he has even more options to choose from, now that JHud is about to force him to choose a steady career. We’ll just let Gwen Guthrie’s 1986 hit, “Ain’t Nothing Going On But The Rent” take us out on this one…
