Caught Before Coachella: Post Malone Served in Surprise Custody Showdown with Ex-Fiancée

What Happens If California Keeps Jurisdiction?

If California asserts jurisdiction—a strong likelihood given Jamie’s filing and the child’s ties to the state—the court will proceed with assessing custody and support under California standards.

As a high-income earner, Post Malone would be subject to an adjusted support formula. Under California guidelines, support amounts for affluent individuals can easily exceed $100,000 per month, based on:

  • His net monthly disposable income;
  • The percentage of time he has physical custody;
  • The child’s standard of living needs;
  • The disparity in income between parents.

Post would be required to file an Income and Expense Declaration (Form FL-150), disclosing his assets, bank balances, real estate holdings, investment income, and personal living expenses. He would also be required to disclose cohabitation status if he resides with current partner Christy Lee—a potential factor in determining household resources and visitation logistics.

Legal vs. Physical Custody Explained

Many parents misunderstand the distinction between legal and physical custody:

  • Legal custodygives a parent the right to make decisions about the child’s education, health care, religion, and general welfare.
  • Physical custodydetermines where the child lives most of the time.

Jamie is seeking full physical custody, meaning the child would live with her full-time, while proposing shared legal custody so that Post has input in major decisions.

Given Post's demanding touring schedule, full physical custody to the child’s mother with scheduled visitation to Post, is likely more realistic. A 50/50 custody split is rarely practical, especially for a parent with a nontraditional lifestyle and significant travel commitments.

Parenting Capabilities, Mental Health, and Court Oversight

Post has publicly spoken about his emotional journey and credited his daughter and Jamie with saving him during a dark time. He told reporters that becoming a father changed his life, but also admitted that just four years ago, he was on a “terrible” path.

 “Changes your life in the best way ever. And the most beautiful thing is, she has a beautiful mom.” 
 “Four years ago, I was on a rough path. It was terrible,” the rapper said last year in a Rollingstone article about how his daughter changed his life.

This timeline is significant. If Jamie chooses to raise concerns about Post’s past mental health or fitness as a caregiver, the court could:

  • Order him to undergo a psychological evaluation;
  • Require completion of parenting classes;
  • Limit custody or mandate supervised visitation.

California family courts prioritize the best interests of the child. If Jamie presents compelling evidence of concern, the court will take it seriously. Alternatively, if Post demonstrates stability, parental involvement, and a willingness to co-parent, the court may issue a liberal visitation schedule in line with the child’s needs.
