Isn’t He Married??
Posted by Bossip Staff
Mike Epps is allegedly the father of a 3 month-old baby that is not his wife’s:
The married actor is being named as the baby daddy to a Georgia woman who gave birth in December 2007. Randy Kessler, the woman’s lawyer, says Epps has refused to submit to a paternity test or provide any support for the child, saying, “We are not asking for the moon, we are just asking him to take a paternity test. Once the tests are completed and paternity is confirmed, hopefully, Mr. Epps will do the right thing and begin to provide for his child.”
Kessler says he and his client initially wanted to work things out privately, but those efforts have been ignored by Epps and his camp. The paternity suit was filed in early February, and since then, Kessler says he has sent five letters and made a number of phone calls to Epps’ lawyers — and all he got back was silence. Calls to Mike Epps’ rep have not been returned.
Well, it is not uncommon for these dudes to knock up side deals, but at least be a man and live up to it. If this is true, hopefully Mike will come around and take care of the baby.

And who is surprised????
Nigga fucked up now he getting hustled
WHATEVER!!! Why are you sleeping with the side piece raw? Come on Mike you know better than that!!! SMDH!!! Now just take the test and man up. If you have nothing to hide then take it and get past it. Sounds like the actions of a guilty man if you ask me.
He should have strapped up…or at least pulled out!!! Niccas are so easy!!! LOL @ Reggie
From recreation to responsibility.
A baby can and will change things.
Sometimes U see a person’s true color once the child’s here.
….
I have a friend who really thought this guy would stay w/ her since she’s knocked up.
I told her ass the very sentence(s) above.
U think she listened.?
I’m like is she still thinking on a high school level?
But ignorance of facts of life can transcend age.
What is with this nine month wealth building plan that all these women are jumping on?
What is with these so called “men” cheating on their wives and refusing to “man up” to their responsibilities?
Who in the hell is supposed to pay for the chid’s care, the taxpayer? I think not. The child’s creators should be responsible.
This is the reason why i pull out before i nut in these duplicitous and opportunistic black cumbuckets hell holes.
You know, I don’t hear so much about the white celebrity’s fathering illegitimate children- and we ALL know plenty of them HAVE to be. White men aren’t any smarter than Black ones when it comes to having unprotected sex, and not pulling out.
Only two things can be going on here:
A) The media just thinks it sells because people react like “typical” and want to read about it and down the minority entertainers.
OR
B) These black men are PACKING and therefore it’s easier for their “seed” to get to that egg- lol
I wish I could vote for B, but that’s doubtful
NICCAS
WHAT ELSE WOULD YOU EXPECT FROM THEM?
THE MAMA HAS SERVED HER PURPOSE AND HE’S MOVED ON-SHE SHOULD JUST DEAL WITH IT RIGHT MY BROTHERS?
SO TYPICAL AND COMMON THAT IT’S SO NOT FUNNY ANYMORE…..
Here we go again….
SMH
At the end of the day two layed down and contributed to conceiving a child, and when they get up only one typically ends up taking responsibility for the act.
Refute it all you want black men having a history of not taking care of their own-and if you feel like these women are opportunistic tricks and hoes why in the world would you have unprotected sex with them?
real talk-
Mike, wear a condom. You’re a fool.
Side bitch, no sympathy for your stupid ass because you obviously intended to get pregnant by a married man with money. Instead of worrying about paternity tests, worry about why you aren’t able to take care of your child without entrapping a man.
Fuck both of these losers.

that doesn’t take away from the fact that these whores *are* opportunistic tricks and hoes. that’s realer talk. the men are stupid. i agree. the women don’t get a ‘get out of being called what you are’ card free, though.

Old as time. Old. As. Time.
Mike must be back to snorting that stuff. Dude embrace the woman you have and if you want to nut up in a chick at least see if it is your kid that will be walking around in this world.
My God…SMH
That woman knew that he was married, when she had sex with him. Mike knew that he was married too. Both of them decided to make some CHOICES that have come back to haunt them.
Like attracts like. Users attract other users. People who cheat on their wives/husbands attract other people who don’t respect the bonds of marriage, just like themselves.
PAC MAN (Punk Ass Cheating Motherfucking Asshole Numb-nut) meet PAC WOMAN (Whorish Ogre Money-sucking Asswipe Nincompoop)
I feel bad for this wife though.
@ nina
God forbid that this woman had no idea he was married, seeing that I just learned he was married after reading an article last year and hearing that he kicked a drug habit-so she may not have known, and she didn’t put a gun to his head and make him lay down-when he woke up that morning he knew all day that he was married and had taken wedding vows-even if she was a trick and I can’t say because I don’t know-when you get married the only people responsible for honoring that marriage is the two that are in it-you can’t expect a “hoe” to respect your wife or so called marriage when you don’t especially if you flipping and tossing her like “you do” or “don’t do” your wife-
and Nina
you also remind me of the “old hags” at the church or in the neighborhood who sit back and talk about a young girl being fast and hot, but in the same breath says nothing to manish ass little boys-Real Talk boo
oops @ nita
More and more it trips me out to know people have no shame/fear not use protection. his is a damn shame! OYu can’t trust nobody and cheaters do even care to wrap it up.

Damn.. I was typing too fast and hit the wrong button.
But this way of living and thinking it’s okay is getting out of hand. People protect yourselves!!!
@ intenzemocha
Oh spare us the pre-meditated victim routine. She knew he was a celebrity…And in this day and age, there is no excuse to get knocked up by a person that you barely know. If you have unprotected casual sex, it should be for recreation, not procreation. I get sick of you nigga bitches playin that sanctimonius routine of yours, as if you don’t have to own up to your accountability in your bad decisions in life…Especially when you have to carry that baby around for nine months and ultimately have to take care of that baby.
damn da-da!! no rubber?
welp…u get caught slipping and u have to do ya bid…. 18 yrs!!! (the beautiful judge slams her gavel down)
***FYI NUCCAS U HAVE TO TREAT THESES BROADS LIKE THE FEDS..THEY ALWAYS LOOKING, LISTENING AND CALCULATING WHAT U GOT IN UR POCKETS. DONT GET CAUGHT!! DAMN!! I SLAM THIS KNOWLEDGE INTO MY LIL BROTHERS HEAD DAILY.
I have not money or fame…but even I know that women can’t be trusted with birth control.What annoys me more is that in our modern world…women get a free pass for this WILDLY IRRESPONSIBLE BEHAVIOR.It’s ALWAYS a mans fault.Even though women have 4 times as many birth control options.After decades now of seeing the negative effects of this behavior…women still find TREASURE HUNTING to be a viable route.Problem is it usually does’nt pan out no matter what color you are…and it says something rather sad when you’re willing to warp a childs’ life to “GET YOURS”.
Just the same…don’t let me catch one of his shows at some LA comedy club.I’ll be so loud he’ll hafta get off stage.(kinda’ kiddin’;->)
he’s making it worse by ignoring her.

Brothas kill me with that she’s a gold digger shit too!! Always wanting to stick their penis in something and getting mad at folks when they ask you to pay for it. If that child is his, who should pay for it? I don’t think I should nor should you. The parents need to pay for it. Trifling muthafuckers!!
Men are so dumb. All he had to do was wear a damn condom and he wouldn’t have been in this predicament. I hope she wipes him out.
I HAVE to think that he is ignoring her because the cahrges are baseleless. They are asking provately for DNA because she ain’t sure OR thisis a publicity stunt.
Please people, don’t be so quick to condemn on hearesay.
@ Al-Anon
Last i check, men don’t get pregnant, women do…And all the feminist logic in the world is not going to change that. That bitch knew he was a celebrity and saw the opportunity to use his sperm as an ATM card for 18 years. She knew what the fuck she was doing. Yeah, if this nigga turns out to be the biological father of this ho’s early retirement plan, then yes, he will/should own up to his responsibility, but considering that over 70% of all black children being born in this country out of wedlock, why would this bitch want to contribute to this crisis?
@ lisalisa
FYI, condoms are the least effective form of contraceptive on the market, due to breakage, slippage or leaking. Women have over 13 forms of birth control at their disposal + the morning after pill. Like i said, there is no excuse in this day and age for a woman to get pregnant by accident (barring rape).
Damn it’s some sickos on the net…….

Anyone familiar with Mike Epps knows he has been a BLATANT WHORE for years! And he’s a powder head. He’s the one with shit to lose, so I think he is stupid.
Mike, needs to get his act together, take the test pay the support, and be a daddy to your child. When you lay down with these dogs you know what your going to get!!!!!
Dummy, you knew better.
He is an EX KNOCK… Just another example of how these trifflin Men will disrespect women. I’m sop Sick of it.. I hope that lamb base Day Day Ass.. GET HIS ASS
wow lmao. and he is not a surprise.
@Marquis de Sade
I have NEVER met any woman who got enough in child support to EVEN BEGIN to pay for the needs and expenses of a child. Early retirement plan, my ass!! As you well know, children are really expensive.
Also, I have never met a woman who told me that she had a baby for someone so she can collect a check. If that was the truth, no broke dude would ever get any pussy. I think that the reasons for deciding to have a baby are more complicated.
70% of black children are NOT illegitimate. I prefer to say that their parents are illegitimate.
lmao Kym.. lol day day, he is such a fool in real life, who cheats.. and with NO CONDOM? idiot. And she probably just asked for too much $$ so he said fuck it and now he going to court. plus the papers busted his ass. I wonder if his wife will leave?
IS THIS EDDIE PART 2 WUZ UP WIT COMEDIANS NOWADAYS

HE SURE KNOW HOW TO GET AROUND…… he was in Boston Jan.18/19…. at a club, (blue wave)I know some females who went back to the telly with him………..
Told you. 1 outta 5 people in LA knows someone who fucked Mike Epps. He is an industry whore. He has a nice smile though
lol @ “we are not asking for the moon”….little do they know, when it comes to this crap, they are….
First – he probably felt entitled and didn’t think of the consequences.
Second – she may have been thinking of the big pay day that a child with a famous daddy could bring.
He his a mental midget for sleeping around AND with no protection.
She must have been riding in the bacl of the bus with the flavored windows – without her helmet.
They both deserve crap!
The negro and his over-sexed manner! Ours is truly a sick and poisoned culture!
Mike is a selfish, immoral, idiot for cheating and the tramp is an opportunistic scavenger who was looking for a quick pay day. The only victim here is the wife.
I am so sick of stupid ass, trifling ass married men knocking up the bottomfeeding jumpoffs. WTF Day Day! I hope his wife takes him for all he has.
sorry, they could have all the infectious diseased sex for all they want but PLAN B is available over the counter for just $40 – for times such as this – both are at fault and both need to pay up ..
Got a beautiful wife and he had to go mess up his marriage.
For the sake of their marriage I hope this isn’t true. If it is…she better skin that man.

All the more reason for women to think bufore allowing themselves to get knocked up in the first place.
Yeah, and that’s this hoodrat procured her a lawyer to try and hose this nigga for a (probable) large sum of cash for child support. How many average woman you know can hire a lawyer to go after someone for child support, unless said person has fame and power? If he was a typical nigga, she would’ve reported to the child support system and let them garnish his wages…And poor broke niggas get laid all the time. How do explain the aforementioned 70% of children being born out of wedlock and a large percentage being born into poverty.
Is this day and age of chicks getting laid to get paid,, not to mention AIDS, how is it that dudes will still go up in a chick raw…. Come on now, get real, if your going to step out on Wifey at least rap it up or better yet let her swollow…
Men are soooo sloppy, that’s why they get caught, it a chick was to get caught it’s cause she wants to be caught….
I think congress should pass a new law… Women who sleep with married men should get ZIP ZERO ZILCH if they get pregnant and then we’ll see how many “SIDE DEALS” these stars would have. LADIES STOP SLEEPING WITH MARIED MEN and GET YOUR OWN SHIT!
” I get sick of you nigga bitches playin that sanctimonius routine of yours, as if you don’t have to own up to your accountability in your bad decisions in life…Especially when you have to carry that baby around for nine months and ultimately have to take care of that baby.”
To begin with, I don’t remember reading a damn thing that says this is a sista who is supposed to be pregnant for him.. Leave it to a self hating jungle monkey to make that claim..
Maybe you porch ape AIDs spreading coon males should keep your dicks in your pants seeing that its YOUR stupid swamp ninja ass that will get stuck with child support payments along wiht alimony payments when your wife divorces you for cheating on her.. How much longer is the black male going to blame everyone else for his loose dick issues??
Get the hell on you fucking piece of black apeshit..
“I think congress should pass a new law… Women who sleep with married men should get ZIP ZERO ZILCH if they get pregnant and then we’ll see how many “SIDE DEALS” these stars would have. LADIES STOP SLEEPING WITH MARIED MEN and GET YOUR OWN SHIT!”
So these loose dick black males should be able to cheat all over the place and never be held accountable for it?? He’s out here making the kids so shy not take care of them?? Why didn’t he use a condom??? He could have avoided all of this by strapping up!! Why didn’t he?? Lord knows he had the most to lose…
You know, its people like you and attitudes like this that make it all but a promise that the black man will never get his shit together and will always be sitting around looking for others to blame for his utter sorriness, shiftlessness and worthlessness.. The black man needs to be made ot take responsibility for his shit..
de sade, speak on it! truth hurts.
“de sade, speak on it! truth hurts.”
Apparently so does paying child support or this monkey would have responded to the womans lawyers, huh?!?!
LOL – I hope she bleeds his stupid ass dry…
No sex at all before marriage should be the rule, and we wouldnt have these problems.
Yeah he did something strange for a little bit of change..
SDMH, wesley snipes didn’t immediately respond to the woman who accused him either. he said he wasn’t going to give her the time of day. i don’t know what ultimately happened w/that case but i know he said he was taking it all the way on behalf of all the men that are falsely accused. apparently, all a woman has to do is just put a word out and all of a sudden her word is taken as the truth.
I agree Simply and I am a woman. All women know the window of days in each month that they are most fertile. These woman who prey on married celebrities, athletes, or just successful men in general have ulterior motives all along – 1) break up a marriage by getting pregnant and 2)getting a nice paycheck for the next 18 years in the process. Yes, the married man is just as much to blame as he is the immoral and adulterous party. However, I am certain that 99% of these men do not wish to reproduce with the sideline tramps and there really was no relationship. So, I feel that Mike should just relinquish all parental rights (if he is indeed the father), let the sideline trick take care of the child herself and focus on repairing his real family. Some of you may disagree, but we are all entitled to our opinions…
NOTE TO ENTERTAINERS::::
STAY AWAY FROM GEORGIA WOMEN…….
This is about the tenth celebrity to father a child out of wedlock with a Geogia woman in the last year or so.
Didn’t ya’ll see what happened to Willie Gary? Damn.
Nicely put Simply. Women STAND UP and STOP THE MADNESS!
“However, I am certain that 99% of these men do not wish to reproduce with the sideline tramps and there really was no relationship.”
How come 99% of these men don’t use condoms so they don’t reproduce???
@ SMDH
Cuz condoms suck bitch. If you had a dick you’d understand.
@ Franco
LMAO. Yea, that is true. Like fucking somebody with a bike intertube stuck to your dick. LOL
SMDH, none of us were present when Mike and the alledged sideline trick had their encounters. So, it could have been a maatter of him a) not wearing a condom at all , b) he wore a condom and it broke, c) the trick had condoms on hand that she had “hooked up” prior to him placing one on….So again, we are all entitled to our own opinions and that is mine….The trick planned the pregnancy without his consent, so let her take care of the child on her own…..Period…
Sex is truly better without a condom but if you’re not staying exclusive in the relationship then you need to put on your life jacket before going fishing.
Women stop hoping you are hitting the lotery with celebraty men, and jocks
Dudes damn wear a condom, and if it breaks stop wearing the little japanese ones.
And these jump off’s be lying…. I’m on the pill, I got my tubes tied, I can’t have kids and then boom… I’m pregnant. Both are to blame and I don’t feel sorry for neither side. Men stop sleeping around so much and Women stop sleeping with married men!
If you’re going to sleep around and do ‘dirt’, use a condom. Seriously.
You know it’s time for these white women to start taking care of themselves and stop relying on the black man to take care of them. They make a career of hunting down wealthy black men and trapping them with the babies in an attempt to make a dollar.
Hey Mike THATZ A BEAUTIFUL WIFE THERE BRAH!!!BUT THAT DRESS IS OL ASS HELL, MY GRANDMA GOT THAT SAME SHIT BACK IN 94!!!
thats a damn they need to use condoms nasty asses
I don’t know why it’s so hard for men to use a condom and for women to demand that a man wear one. People act as if HIV/AIDS does not exist anymore. If it is true that Mike cheated with this women and got her pregnant then both parties are at fault. The only people I feel sorry for are Mike’s wife and the child (If it is his).
He is so hot. It is pardonable that he gets som any winks on a positive dating site named”. His profile is very popular here
So happiness.What’s wrong my love baby? She is so lovely .I love her very much.I saw her in millonaire dating site”W e a l t h y L o v i n g . c o m” .Dose she really fall in bad ill?
It’s a shame that this continues to happen. BOTH of them are wrong on sooooo many levels but the one who’ll pay the price is the child!
Men like this (in all colors, shapes, shades, and sizes) are truly scum and the women who allow themselves to become impregnated by them are the most ignorant, vile, shameless creatures to walk the face of the earth!
BOTH OF THEM should get their just do.
The poor child has my sympathy.
@ Britney and all the rest of you fools trying to promote those websites–
Sit yo ass down and STFU!!!!
Cornball!
You know damn well you aint seen no body no-damn-where!!!!
Lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that SMDH is a buss down. She always be defending triflin hoes. Dumb ass!
I bet she somewhere right now doing a married man she think got some loot, trying to get on that 18 year retirement plan. Dumb Ass!!!
they look like brother and sister
@RIP SNOOP…that’s not going to work for a lot of people! And, even when married, if one or both memebrs aren’t faithful, it’s just as bad as having sex before marriage.
I feel like people need to respect marriage. But, every situation is not the same. There are some people who get into relationships NOT knowing their partner is married. IT HAPPENS!
But, before you decide to have a baby, things should be on-point. If you purposely get pregnant b/c the guy has money, you’re bound to have problems…especially if he’s married.
I blame both parties and I wish the best for the child.
BTW, that’s a beautiful picture!
@hey girl…yes, they do!
see this dumb not funny ass nucca done fucked up.child supports and his stacks ain’t even fat he better hope wifee don’t divorce his ass and take the rest.
one other thing kiddies his wife needs to get tested. you cant go raw on georgia girls its not there faults its the punk downlow ass nuccas down there fault.
As cute as his wife is, he still messed over her. And had unprotected sex!! Stupid bastard!! I had always liked Mike Epps. If this b*tch is white, that’s it for me!
A woman that i know (wont say name) told me back in 06 that Mike Epps gave her oral sex and it was really good!so i def believe this situation here coulda happened! im losin my faith in black men i swear! so unfaithful and untrustworthy. And this is coming from a smart good looking black woman who loves our men! where the real brothers at man! cos all these snake mommafuckaz gotta go!
It’s ridiculous! How he dare to admit that! No wonder I had seen him on a club called WEALTHYCHAT.COM DO he want find someone? Or? So strange.
this is just another example of a man who shouldve thought w/the big head instead of the little head…
i just want to say that Mike is a mess and he has known that this girl was pregnant since conception. he is a whore. he has a baby by someone that i know and he pays monthly for her but not through the courts it was an agreement. he actually has two children outside of his wife and he does not see or spend nearly enough time with them. he is a horrible person and i hope this women takes him for every thing he has
IF A MAN KNOWS THAT HE WILL BE MADE TO PAY CHLD SUPPORT
AND THAT BLACK WOMEN ARE MONEY GRUBBING NO SELF-RESPECT HAVING HOES
THEN WHY OH WHY AGAIN MY BROTHERS KNOWING THESE SO CALLED FACTS THAT SO MANY OF YOU PUT FORTH
WOULD YOU NOT PROTECT YOURSELF AND YOUR EARNINGS?
I’M STILL WAITING FOR A LOGICAL EXPLANATION OTHER THEN IT DOESN’T FEEL GOOD
JUDGING BY ALL OF THE RESPONSES BY THE MEN ON THIS SITE YOU ARE BASICALLY ADMITTING THAT YOU HAVE NO CONTROL OVER YOURSELVES OR YOUR BODIES AND THAT YOU ARE CONTROLLED BY YOUR SEXUAL URGES-HENCE BEING CHILD LIKE-(EXHIBITING BEHAVIOR OF A TODDLER, I FEEL IT SO I REACT)
DUMB ASSES-IF A WOMAN -(A BLACK WOMAN) WANTED TO TRAP YOUR ASSES
(NOT SEEING WHY -SEEING THAT YOUR KNOWN TO NOT TAKE CARE OF YOUR CHILDREN LESS KNOWN BE INVOLVED WITH THEM-SO I CAN’T SEE THE UPSIDE OF THAT FOR THE FEW DOLLARS YOU MAY OR MAY NOT COLLECT)
IT’S SO DAMN EASY TO DO OFFER YOU SOME PU##Y OBVIOUSLY IT’S NICCAS CRYPTONITE YOU COULDN’T POSSIBLY RESIST OR PROTECT YOURSELF
A REAL MAN EXHIBITS SELF-CONTROL HE CONTROLS HIS PENIS NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND AND UNTIL YOU RETARDS START PRACTICING IT-YOU’LL CONTINUE TO GET YOUR PAYCHECKS GARNISHED BY CHILD SUPPORT AND TRAPPED BY TRICKS
HONOR YOUR OWN MARRIAGE FIRST-THE WIFE 9 TIMES OUT OF 10 KNOWS HER MAN IS A WHORE AND MARRIES HIM ANYWAYS JUST TO WEAR A “TITLE”-SO SHE AINT A DAMN VICTIM EITHER-ESPECIALLY IF SHE CONTINUES TO ACCEPT HIS CHEATING ASS-REAL TALK
AND GUESS WHAT THE LAW IS ON HER SIDE IF IN FACT HE’S THE FATHER-SO UNLESS THE LAW CHANGES YOU NICCAS BETTER
You know, I get so tired of the black women looking for every excuse in the book to give up on black men. What’s going on with Mike Epps happens to men of all races, and every black man is not like this. You cannot take what this clown did and apply it to all black men. To any sista whose “lost her faith” in black men because of the actions of SOME black men, I say good riddance, because frankly there are plenty of good black men out here, and we don’t want sistas who have “lost their faith” in us before they even get to know us as an individual. We want strong sistas who will at least get to know us first, before prejudging us based upon what another man did.
What a beautiful wife he’s got.
What a big Shame! Shame! Shame.
Any kids from the wife?
Unfortunately alot of people famous or not live a double life. Everyone has their demons and most of the time for talented rich men its women. Ask P.Diddy, ask Bill Cosby, and now Mike Epps and countless others. The difference is most are probably SMART enough to take care of their business before word gets out. Sex is just like any other affliction; alcoholism, drugs. These things can be healthy habits but can quickly turn into a vice. People need to realize that its not as simple as “keeping it in your pants” for some people, it really takes discipline and self control to NOT cheat. If before you were married you F’d every other thing that was moving, you cant just cut that off.Love doesn’t have ish to do with it because if it did then these guys wouldnt bust their asses to not let their wives find out. Thats food for thought, ya’ll nuccas do the dishes.
