Hollywood Director & Husband Of Lela Rochon Is Deadbeat To Bastard Kids???



Dead beat dads are no strangers to Hollywood circles. It just may be

that Antoine Fuqua has been living a double life for some time, and
now one woman connected to Fuqua is speaking out in support of the
7-year-old love child she shares with the “Brooklyn’s Finest” film
director.

From the surface, Antoine Fuqua is publicly seen as being a successful
movie director who is happily married to actress Lela Rochon. The
couple shares two children — Asia and Brando Fuqua.

Fuqua is also the biological father of another child, Zachary Fuqua,
from a relationship prior to the one he currently shares with Rochon.
But, there’s another child who Fuqua has fathered, -he is 7-year-old
Roman Adonis Jimenez.
According to court documents, Fuqua officially acknowledges that he is
Roman’s father. The problem is regardless of the fact that Fuqua knows
he’s Roman’s father, he has not financially provided for the boy –
making him a deadbeat dad, even going so far in court as to claim his
income at only $19,000 per month, before taxes.

Ruth Jimenez, who was a working real estate agent, met Antoine Fuqua
more than eight-years ago after the film director contacted her while
on the hunt for a personal home of his own. To be sure, Fuqua was
married to Rochon at the time. Back then, Jimenez says she had no idea
that Fuqua was married — nor did she know that he had great financial
status and was a successful working movie director. The pair
eventually went on to lead an ongoing relationship, and Jimenez became
pregnant with their son.

When Jimenez told Fuqua she was carrying their child, she says he
bailed. That child is now seven-years old, and Jimenez has seen little
to no child support from Fuqua.

For the entire first two-years of Roman’s life, Fuqua provided
nothing. That’s when he told Jimenez he was “having a hard time.”
What’s worse is Fuqua has spent just 15-hours of seven-years with his
son, Roman. After Roman turned two-years-old, he made just a few child
support payments – and they were seldom. This is beyond disturbing
especially when Fuqua is reportedly over $100,000 in arrears, and has
sold a home for $6 million, which he “gifted” to his mother-in-law
back in 2005. Fuqua may be pulling this stunt because he knows
Jimenez, who’s now a student and single mother, can’t afford to hire a
good lawyer to represent her.

But, the big question is how did Antoine’s wife not know of his
wayward lifestyle? The truth lies in the fact that Rochon was very
well aware of it — even condoning it. So, how could a less than
average-looking Antoine get so much play from women? Simple – he’s
girl crazy. Don’t believe me.. Ask Al B Sure.

From Fuqua’s actions, it seems that the film director sees his former
mistress and love child as not being a good fit for his Hollywood
image and lifestyle – and he’s not alone in his attempts at keeping
those two individuals in the dark. Back in December of 2008, Jimenez
contacted Fuqua’s business manager Steve Callas, after she encountered
several failed attempts at reaching Fuqua personally. Jimenez’s
efforts were solely in pursuit of providing Christmas for her son,
Roman.

Once Jimenez was able to get Callas on the line, she learned that
Fuqua was on a five-star vacation at a Costa Rican villa. And, when
Jimenez demanded she see Fuqua, Callas wired a small amount of money
into her bank account. Roman never saw his father that Christmas.

This isn’t the first time Fuqua has found himself at the center of a
pregnancy scandal, back in 1999, when while on the set of “Bait”,
Fuqua impregnated a Toronto bartender. That woman later had an
abortion at his urging, yet never saw a dime of support as promised
her from Fuqua. Now, it just may be that there are other women out
there who have fallen victim to Fuqua’s wrath.
