Bachelorette alum Rachel Lindsay‘s estranged husband, Bryan Abasolo, is accusing her of sending a nasty text message after making her first $13K a month spousal support payment, Media Take Out has learned.
Bryan who was recently awarded $13,257 a month in temporary spousal support from Rachel, said she sent him a “highly offensive text” after sending him the first payment. The court ordered Rachel to make two payments per month totaling $13,257.
He said the text read, “BofA: Glender Ruth LLC sent you $6,628.50 for ‘Temp Leech Money,’ He’s upset that he was referred to as a “leech” in the text.
But there’s more.
According to new court documents, Bryan asked the judge presiding over their bitter divorce to grant him access to $35,000 of community property funds for professional fees and for Rachel, 39, to be sanctioned for $5,000 – for sending a nasty text message.
Bryan said he has no ability to pay his divorce lawyers without access to the community property funds.
He said he owes his attorney over $62,000 for work done on the case.
He told the court, “Rachel has $88,500 in our Charles Schwab accounts and Rachel had $259,207 of community property funds in her Bank of America sole proprietor account upon separation, all of which is community property. This does not include the $250,000 that Rachel already paid out of our Charles Schwab accounts to pay our 2023 estimated taxes.”
Bryan added, “For six months, my attorneys have been asking Rachel for a reasonable contribution to my attorney’s fees and costs so that I can level the playing field, but she abjectly refuses. I am not able to use my forensic accountant, Anna Leh, because she will not work without being paid.”
He pointed out Rachel continues to pay her “high-priced lawyers” to represent her.
Bryan claimed, “Rachel believes she has an exclusive right to access our community property funds to pay for her professionals. Rachel also believes our community property home is all hers.”
