Paak filed for divorce from Jae Lin Chang in January 2024 after 13 years of marriage, citing “irreconcilable differences.”
According to TMZ, Lin is requesting primary custody of their two children, along with spousal support.
Legal documents filed in Los Angeles state that Lin wants to share legal custody of their two children, aged nine and 13. However, she wants primary physical custody.
On the other hand, she’s asking for Paak to have secondary physical custody and visitation. Lin is requesting spousal support and wants to stop the court’s ability to award support to Paak.
Paak and Lin got married in November 2010, shortly before the birth of their first child. Lin wrote “TBD” in the court documents for the date they separated
When he initially filed for divorce, Paak wanted joint legal and physical custody of their kids, including a visitation schedule for both of them.
Paak and Lin met at the Musicians Institute in Hollywood when he was a teaching assistant. He was a drummer in the gospel vocal class, which Lin was taking.
