New Information Revealed About Chris Rock’s “Adopted” African Daughter
More information has been revealed in the suspicous case of Chris Rock’s “adopted” African daughter Ntombi. According to TMZ, the biological father of the child is refusing to speak on the circumstances surrounding how she ended up becoming part of the Rock family.
The father, Crispen Khanyile, and the mother, Precious Ndebele, brought Ntombi into this world on February 23, 2008 while they were both living in squalor near Johannesburg. An independent reports states that they had 2 other children and their day-to-day life was described as “not conducive for human living.”
When asked about how much they were paid for Ntombi, Crispen basically told TMZ that they need to holla at Chris’ estranged wife, Malaak, if they wanna know all that.
Malaak’s lawyer has confessed that she is in the process of trying to legally adopt Ntombi, but didn’t explain exactly why she never tried to make it official all these years.
Sources say Chris Rock is refusing to have contact with the child because he’s convinced that Malaak did something illegal to get her here in the first place.
Ntombi came to the U.S. on a visitor’s visa, and was supposed to return to Africa yearly…she has not gone back once in 7 years.

Malaak Compton-Rock has released a statement to PEOPLE, via her lawyers:
“Although Chris Rock is a celebrity, Malaak and the children are not. Protecting the privacy of her family remains of utmost importance to Malaak. She is saddened by recent tabloid media reports which are full of erroneous speculation and inaccuracies that are hurtful to three innocent young girls. While the adoption by Malaak is not yet finalized, it is actively in process under the rigorous guidelines and safeguards of international adoption policy. The child is in the country lawfully with the written consent of her birth parents, and while here, has been cherished and adored by the entire Rock family.”
Something doesn’t smell right, we’re gonna keep an eye on this one…
