AceShowbiz - Tyrese Gibson was arrested on Monday, September 9, in Fulton County, Georgia, after being held in contempt of court for failing to make child support payments. The "Fast and the Furious" star was ordered to pay $73,500 to avoid jail time.

According to court records, Gibson's ex-wife, Samantha Lee, filed a motion claiming he had fallen behind on payments for their 5-year-old daughter Soraya. A Superior Court judge ruled that Gibson was in "willful contempt" and ordered him to pay the outstanding amount.

Gibson alleges that the presiding judge, Kevin M. Farmer, has a vendetta against him and "hates my guts." The actor took to Instagram to express his frustration, stating that he is "dad" because of the bond he has with his children and that he has always provided for them financially.

Gibson's attorney, Tanya Mitchell Graham, appealed the judge's ruling, which delayed the payment requirement. However, she did not respond to requests for comment.

Gibson was later released from custody, but it's unclear if he paid any portion of the child support before his release. His attorneys have previously used the appeal process to avoid court-mandated payments.

In the meantime, Lee has not publicly commented on Gibson's arrest. Her most recent social media post encouraged people to "keep smiling."
