Xzibit thinks it’s absurd for him to pay his estranged wife spousal support … he says he’s struggling to make ends meet while she’s living in their $3 million home with her new boyfriend.
The “Pimp My Ride” star just filed a response to Krista Joiner‘s legal docs seeking spousal support in their divorce … X says he simply doesn’t have the cash because a huge chunk of his income dried up during the pandemic.
According to the new docs, obtained by TMZ, Xzibit says he’s no longer the breadwinner he was before the divorce … claiming he hasn’t worked in Hollywood since 2019, isn’t getting any money from his cannabis ventures and lost tons of income when COVID scuttled the concert scene.
X says in the docs he’s “struggling to make ends meet at the same time trying to uphold being a public figure, pay my own expenses and provide for my son.”
Xzibit paints Krista as someone who is doing just fine without spousal support … he says her recent income was around $175,000 a year and claims she’s living in their home with her new boyfriend and the man’s kids.
X says Krista’s boyfriend has been bragging about the digs on social media, filming a pilot in the home and taking down Xzibit’s artwork and recording plaques.
Xzibit says he asked Krista to agree to sell the home after she filed for divorce in February … but he says she only recently agreed to unload the property and now the housing market is starting to cool.
X says the home is estimated to be worth $3,715,600 … but he thinks they could’ve sold for a higher figure if she played ball earlier, and says they had to take out short-term loans to pay the mortgage pending a sale.
Oh, and get this … Xzibit claims Krista went behind his back to obtain a new lease on a 2021 Bentley and signed for the lease under his company name, Xzibit Inc., even though she’s not an exec there. He also alleges she forged his name on a check for the down payment.
X says he told Krista to return the Bentley because he couldn’t afford the car and insurance payments, but says she refused and hid the car for 8 months before it was repossessed in January … only a few weeks before she filed for divorce.
