March 1, 20169 yr Author It's getting MESSY: We all saw it coming: complete and utter baby mama drama. Louis Tomlinson is learning the hard way that co-parenting with a random chick you impregnated isn’t going to be smooth sailing. For awhile there, however, it seemed like it was: the One Direction hottie welcomed son Freddie Reign, with former fling Briana Jungwirth, and generously installed her in a plush three-bedroom Calabasas, CA pad so she could raise their son in style while he rents a mansion nearby. But HA HA HA if he thought that was enough. Apparently Briana has gotten tres greedy and is refusing to let Louis see his son until he pays up, and we’re not just talking about a few grand a month for child support. I hear she wants a MAJOR amount of cash, basically trying to extort him by using their precious son as leverage. Totally unnecessary and awful, don’t you think? Oh Louis — that dreadful “it is what it is” tattoo across your chest seems appropriate at the moment, now doesn’t it? Thankfully, the handsome singer isn’t just going to roll over and sign a check. He’s lawyering up and preparing to fight for parental rights because — HELLO! — he is the boy’s father. That being said, it’s unfortunate that these two can’t just co- parent peacefully. I’ve heard numerous rumors that Briana planned to get knocked up, even telling Louis that she was on the pill when she wasn’t, all in pursuit of a huge payday for the next 18 years. Could it be that those whispers weren’t 100% baseless? Or do you think that he probably is trying to stiff her and their baby? UPDATE: According to TMZ, the parents have avoided a courtroom showdown by a matter of hours, and agreed to a temporary custody arrangement while their lawyers hammer out something formal. Here’s to hoping it all works out in the best interest of the child. Xoxo Gossip Girl
