Chris Brown and Diamond Brown’s co-parenting dispute is getting increasingly public.
The singer appeared to respond Wednesday after Diamond posted a lengthy video accusing him of neglecting their daughter, Lovely Brown, and disputing his claims about the amount of financial support he provides.
The back-and-forth comes amid reports that Diamond is seeking significantly more monthly child support from Brown.
Chris Brown Appears To Respond To Diamond Brown’s Viral Video
Brown took to his Instagram Story after Diamond posted a roughly 10-minute video addressing their parenting situation.
Without naming her directly, Brown referenced someone recording a “10 minute video” criticizing him and suggested the video actually supported his side of the dispute.
“Stuck on stupid!” Brown wrote before adding that the video supposedly proved the point he had already been making.
The post was widely interpreted as a response to Diamond’s comments.
Diamond Brown Accuses Chris Brown Of Not Spending Enough Time With Lovely
Diamond’s video came after Brown publicly claimed that she was preventing him from spending time with their daughter.
Brown argued that their parenting arrangement was not truly 50/50 and claimed that he covers nearly all of Lovely’s major expenses.
According to Brown, he pays for housing, schooling, medical expenses, vehicles and monthly financial support.
Diamond disputed the idea that money alone makes him an active parent.
She acknowledged the financial assistance but argued that Brown should make more of an effort to physically spend time with Lovely.
Her central criticism was that financial support cannot replace regular involvement in their daughter’s life.

The dispute expanded beyond Chris and Diamond after other women who share children with Brown became involved online.
Diamond addressed Nia Guzman, Ammika Harris and Jada Wallace, criticizing them for weighing in on her co-parenting issues with Brown.
Guzman is the mother of Brown’s daughter Royalty, Harris shares son Aeko with him, while Wallace is the mother of his son Arrow.
The women later appeared to publicly defend Brown, turning what began as a private parenting dispute into a much broader social media feud.
Diamond also rejected claims that jealousy or bitterness were driving her criticism of the singer.
Chris Brown And Diamond Brown’s Child Support Dispute
The public tension comes as Diamond is reportedly seeking around $45,000 per month in child support.
According to TMZ, Diamond argues that the amount is needed to cover housing and household costs as well as expenses connected to Lovely’s education, medical care and extracurricular activities.
She reportedly estimates her monthly household costs at approximately $23,000 and Lovely’s additional expenses at roughly $20,000.
Diamond has acknowledged that Brown currently pays for the four-bedroom home where she and Lovely live and provides additional monthly spending money.
However, she reportedly wants increased support and a larger residence.
Brown, meanwhile, has publicly pushed back against suggestions that he does not financially provide for his daughter.

The dispute now appears to center around two competing arguments.
Brown maintains that he financially provides for Lovely and has accused Diamond of making it difficult for him to see their daughter.
Diamond argues that his financial contributions do not excuse what she describes as a lack of effort when it comes to spending time with Lovely.
With both sides now airing their frustrations publicly, the disagreement has quickly become one of Brown’s most visible co-parenting disputes.
