The Real Reason Ciara And Future Broke Up

On top of having one of the most brutal celebrity breakups, Future and Ciara's constant battles in court played out in the public eye. The main point of contention was about their son, Future Jr., with Future tweeting in January 2016 (via MTV News), "I gotta go through lawyers to see baby future...the f***ery for 15k a month." The following month, Ciara filed a $15 million defamation lawsuit against her ex-fiancé for his public vent sessions about their custody battle, as the "I'm Out" singer claimed Future's comments were slanderous and caused damage to her reputation. In the lawsuit, she alleged that Future only saw his son 19 times since December 2014, according to TMZ

Future filed a countersuit claiming his tweets did not garner any more publicity than the lawsuit itself did, and that he hadn't damaged her reputation because her career was already over. Ouch. Ciara then sought sole custody of the baby, but in the end, the parents were awarded joint custody in January 2017, TMZ reported. Although there were a few court battles unrelated to Future Jr. to come, it appears the exes are doing OK as of this writing. "Happy Mother's Day Ci..Baby Future is Life, Preciate u," the rapper tweeted to Ciara for Mother's Day 2020.

All's well that ends well, as the saying goes.
