Marlon Wayans is embroiled in a messy custody battle with his ex, Brittany Moreland, over their 1-year-old daughter, Axl. The drama spilled onto social media after Moreland filed a petition to establish paternity and secure custody.
“Do the Math”: Wayans Slams Moreland’s Demands
Wayans, clearly unhappy with the situation, took to The Shade Room to express his frustrations. He questioned Moreland’s request for full custody while still granting him visitation rights, stating, “Do you pay all that money per month and be called a ‘visitor’?” He added, “This is delusional.”

Moreland, an unemployed graduate student according to court documents, is requesting an increase in child support from the $18,000 Wayans currently pays. She claims her monthly expenses exceed $20,000 and needs additional funds for childcare and household supplies.
Wayans disputes these claims, calling Moreland “entitled” and suggesting her requests are excessive, especially considering his existing financial obligations to his two older children.

Moreland’s petition reportedly accuses Wayans of keeping Axl a secret. Wayans refutes this, stating, “The baby isn’t a secret. The mama has been posted.” He clarifies that he chooses to keep his daughter’s life private for her own safety.
