Former “America’s Next Top Model” finalist Nik Pace has filed a lawsuit of more than $70,000 in monthly child support payments against New York Jets star Braylon Edwards. The two have a son together but were never in a serious relationship.

According to Nik, Braylon rushed to be legally recognized as the father of their baby boy, Braylon Jr., in Georgia, in a calculated act to pay less money in child support. The baby was born in Atlanta, Georgia, back in August.

A source told the NY Post, “Nik’s main home is in Georgia, she is registered to vote in Georgia, and she gave birth in Georgia, which is why he immediately asked the courts in Georgia to recognize him as the dad.

“She only moved to New York in November after he was traded to the Jets. He wants to be part of the child’s life, but she wouldn’t even tell him where or when the child would be born so he could be there. He wants to provide for his son. He has been paying support since the birth.”

As if the money Nik would get in child support is not enough in any state! Nik seems to have won the lottery but she wants to collect in New York, a more generous state with child support payments. Braylon’s lawyer, Randy Kessler, said, “Braylon is a proud father who has loved and supported his child since before he was born. He filed in June to declare himself the legal father and she objected.”
