Actor Val Kilmer has been hit with a demand for financial support from his ex-wife after allegedly falling behind with child support payments.
Joanne Whalley was married to Kilmer from 1988 to 1996, and they share two teenage children. Following their split, Kilmer agreed to pay $27,500 a month in child support.
However, Val Kilmer is said to have fallen behind on the installments, prompting Whalley to obtain a lien against Kilmer’s ranch in New Mexico in an effort to force him to bring the payments up to date.
It’s not the first time Whalley has tried to secure a debt payment on Kilmer’s home – he owed her money in 2007, but the lien was removed in 2008 after the situation was rectified.
Last year (2010), Kilmer faced financial ruin when it was reported he owed nearly $500,000 in unpaid federal taxes. He was also forced to slash the price of his New Mexico property by a massive $10 million after it failed to sell.
