Kevin Gates
$1M To Estranged Wife Was No Biggie
Published
Kevin Gates says he doesn’t care that he had to fork over a small fortune to his estranged wife … saying he always gives everything to those he loves — and the seven-figure payment was no different.
The rapper joined us on “The TMZ Podcast” … and Towanda asked him about a judge ordering him to split the proceeds of his music catalogue sale with Dreka Gates … to the tune of $1 million.
KG says a portion is nothing to him … because he’s used to giving his loved ones the world … implying he did just that for Dreka.
Towanda follows up by asking if he’s really not mad about it … and Kevin says he’s not mad about anything — before going into cosmic intervention in relationships that are meant to be.
Kevin also briefly hit on the social media speculation about his relationship status … making it clear he doesn’t like discussing his private life with the public.
As we reported … a judge ordered Kevin to give Dreka $929,341.50 for child and spousal support and another $150,000 directly. Dreka’s lawyers are also supposed to receive $125,000 for attorney fees, her accountant will get $100,000, and $103,000 will go to a third-party mediation service.
While Kevin seems zen about his past romance now, it’s been an acrimonious split … with Kevin claiming Dreka stole from him multiple times in their relationship … an allegation her lawyer vehemently denied.
Bottom line … Kevin’s moving on with a slightly smaller bank account but no hard feelings.
