Javaughn Young-White, the father of Kehlani’s five-year-old daughter, has filed for full custody of their child.
Young-White dated Kehlani from 2018 to 2019, alleging that the award-winning artist is in a cult.
“Adeya was born through a home birth orchestrated by what I would describe as a cult that she belongs in,” he wrote in court documents. “Due to the fact that Adeya was born in a home and not in a conventional setting like a hospital, my name is not on Adeya’s birth certificate.”
Young-White says the alleged leader of the cult convinced Kehlani, telling the singer he would kill her, so Kehlani allegedly stopped him from contacting their child for months. He also alleges the leader has “numerous accusations of committing sexual assault” against women and young girls and that members are allowed to share a bed with and even bathe their child while under the use of psychedelic drugs.
Not only does he want full custody but he wants his name added back onto their daughter’s birth certificate.
Young-White is asking the court to establish his paternity so he may exercise all his rights as the father and child support from Kehlani.
