Last month a judge slashed actor Jesse Williams' child support order from $40k a month to $6k a month in a huge win in his ongoing custody battle with his ex-wife Aryn Drake-Lee [click here if you missed that].
Now Aryn, a multilingual Ivy League graduate, will be representing herself in court...
From Radar Online
Grey's Anatomy star Jesse Williams' ex-wife Aryn Drake-Lee dropped her divorce attorney and has informed the court she plans to represent herself in her battle to increase her child support payments.
According to bombshell court documents obtained by Radar, the real estate broker/entrepreneur revealed she would be parting ways with Merissa V. Grayson and will be handling the case without legal representation.

So, she's too busy to work and provide for her children, but not too busy to represent herself in court to advocate for more money? Smh Ari is looking for any way to hold on to that man; girl, let it go...
She needs to seek mental health assistance. She's not well and it may end badly for her...
Hang it up Aryn and get a J.O.B.!! good grief
@Snitch I’m glad ya’ll FINALLY fixed whatever glitch that was preventing ppl from commenting. Let’s face it, ppl dont come here for the stale ass, dollar late tea ya’ll serve. They come for the comments.
If she were a bit cuter I'd advise her to call up the same matchmaking agency that hooked Ciara up with Russell.
Cici can talk all the "I prayed to Jesus" nonsense she wants but I know better. That man did not just fall from the sky. She went to a matchmaker. Smart lady
She got accustomed to a lifestyle, and is trying to keep it by any means necessary…or it could just be her trying to save money now that her support was slashed from some folks yearly income to monthly income. Those lawyer fees are not cheap.
It's so easy to sit up and type move on...if she's not already; she's gonna drive herself crazy. At this point, the best revenge is moving om and thriving..taking care of herself and those kids...no good kneega..but she gots to move on tho.
I feel bad for her. She heartbroken. she want that thanga thing too
He's got a new show coming up, which he's producing and I'm sure he'll be bringing in a shit load of money. He should just pay the lady and both of them should get on with their lives. Enough of this BS.
I never heard of Jessie Williams until that Grey's show. I became a every now and then viewer before he came in. Point is, I ABSOLUTELY UNDERSTAND, her hurt, and feelings of betrayal, she's in the same boat that far to many black women face after investing in a man's future believing its both of your future. Those that say she should get a job. She, worked her behind off (invested) to get him where he is today. I'm with this sister! A white woman would have got at least half.
She did get played...he quit his lucrative gig for that off off off Broadway naked play and requested a reduction in payments, which was granted. That big peen brought all kinds of offers to his Y'aad and he decides to RECLAIM his position. After that video surfaced, ex wifey goes to the back of the line...AGAIN.
She's a lawyer by trade, no? Especially if she left for a few years to have the kids, she may not have any offers, even with applying.
I'm with you, WGforreal. As a wife, she did what she was supposed to do. He was her investment as he was a part of the family. Just for some other chick(s) to reap the benefits of the work they BOTH put in that should go for their children? I don't think so. I just hope her quest hasn't overtaken her life.
She's not ugly. She's just average and doesn't look "Hollywood". There are a lot of us average looking ladies with good looking men. As a couple, my man and I had folks scratching their heads, too. As we aged, we leveled out, lol.
She ain’t gonna be satisfied until the courts grant him full custom and make her ass pay child support. Then she really gonna be lunchin. And I can also see this heffas pulling some self harm mess on herself just to teach him a lesson
^Custody not Custom 🤣
6:59, happened with Siovaughn Wade. These chicks are gonna learn. Dwyane had all the time, money, and lawyers to keep battle his ex in court. Aryn better watch out, she's making herself look crazy and vengeful. Not a good look during custody battles.
I'd be missing his arse to after that leaked video, LOL. Nah but she gotta get a job
We get it lady he huuuuurrrrrttt you but damn this black chyna, mary harvey revenge shit is exhausting let him go. Stop wasting the same money you tryna to squeeze out this turnip.
@ 8:02PM; Churl I'd be trynna hold on tew!. Did you or did you not see Jesse break the internet wit those delicious leaked pics of the Broadway show!. IJS...
She should continue to fight. Only she and he really knows what she sacrificed. The fact he would drag her ,speaks to his character. An old lady told me and she dead and gone now, ' Never help a man' let him make a way. I believe her to this day.
Y'all low self esteem having bitches sound stupid AF saying that you understand why she's keeping this up based on his dick size. Ain't no dick worth being out here embarrassing yourself like this.
But it was Aryn's choice to make those sacrifices. Was it agreed upon (in writing) that the 5 years that she "invested" in him would require him to support her in perpetuity? What kind of investment is Aryn out here making where she can do the basics of a girlfriend / wife for less than 5 years and get a six figure child support for the rest of her life? Women always assume that they'll be compensated in the end, only to discover that none of that shit is upheld by the court of law. But Aryn is about to learn the hard way just like DWade's ex and Ludacris's baby mama did; there is no such thing as romantic "investment" that aren't in writing. Now had ole girl gotten it stipulated in writing that he's required to pay her x amount regardless of the status of his career. Now she's just out here looking ridiculous and desperate for dick that no longer wants her. It hurts girl, but move on.
I'm all for women (especially sistas) getting their fair share after they build a man up and he bounces. I get it. Women should get their due when they've made sacrifices for a partner. But with her it doesn't seem like it's ever going to be enough. She comes off as jilted and angry and hasn't even tried to move on with her life. They divorced how long ago? And she was getting almost half a million for child support but would fight his shared custody when she thought it was inconvenient for them and her. He pushed back when she thought he would bow down and it backfired. Now she's firing her attorney. Sounds like it's always someone else's fault.
This isn't about what's right or reasonable. She's out for blood, plain and simple. But the worst part of this is that all her toxic energy has to be affecting her kids in some way. There's no way they're not suffering mentally or emotionally because look how angry she comes off to strangers. Nobody this openly bitter and vengeful easily transitions to being sweet as pie unless they're psychotic. She better hope this doesn't come back to bite her in the ass but good luck with being her own client.
@9:56 AM; You Prolly been Thursty once or twice, hell mabye even three times in your life. Guess YOU a saint tho...AFAF...# DISBYTCHGOTMEFUCKEDUP
She's a well established lawyer, whom sacrificed for the good of Jesse's up a coming career & kids. This case should be a cake walk for her if she's still a shark in the legal realm.
Much prettier women who been married longer than her been cheated on and left and some don't even get a paycheck. She needs to humble her average looing self.
10:57, I was absolutely stupid over dick and it cost me my sanity, my peace of mind and almost cost me my career. I had to learn the hard way that a man will destroy everything you love and will leave you in utter shambles and won't give a shit about you. So rather than judging me, perhaps you should consider that I'm coming from a place of experience. But please, carry on. Go chase dicks instead of loving yourself.
10:57, I'll also add that none of the men I was chasing ever started loving me until I loved myself. Once I moved on and started healing, they were calling me nonstop. One dude even asked me to marry him. But by the time I loved myself, I saw that they were trash and didn't deserve me anyway.
Any lawyer/judge would advise against representing yourself. Lawyers and judges hire good lawyers for their own lawsuits. This lady is unhinged, bitter, vengeful, and out of money. If she doesn't reflect, discern, and let her bitterness go, then this will not end well for her or her children.
She has money she wants to make him suffer.She should move on, all that money and she always looks like she rolled out of bed.
"a multilingual Ivy League graduate" She should have never dealt with him in the first place (marriage). She was on another level - Jesse was a teacher that wanted to make it in the arts. No thank you.
@2:00...there it is, best comment so far. These beta males know exactly what they're doing when it comes to searching for a wife. Not to say that some men don't have good intentions but those are very few and far between. I really hope these young, college-bound (or even on to a lucrative trade) are taking notes because I'm so tired of seeing a successful sis with someone that's not on her level in the long run. We're hustling while trying to understand their struggle (competitive career, taking care of their kids, money problems) and they're off fantasizing about the day they hit the lottery with Becky or Guadalupe on his arm.
@ J.Swindell
Yea, those men know what they're doing, but the problem is the women DO NOT. As 2:00PM said, she walked into that union as the breadwinner. Jesse wasn't the man for her. She should've focused on the guys in her cohort. He married a woman who was cool with footing the bill. A man who really wants you won't put you in that position!
She was literally the woman who built up a man for the next chick. Sad.
By building him up, she did the RIGHT thing. His actions and disloyalty are what was WRONG. He is disgusting and no amount of di@k is going to change that. His karma will be delicious.
