Bobby Brown has been given two days by a family court judge to prove that he has the income to fund educational trusts for two of his children. As previously reported, Brown was jailed for a day last year after failing to pay child support owed to Kim Ward, and was summoned to court in March after falling behind on payments again, and failing to set up the educational trusts he'd promised to establish years ago.
Back in court, Brown told the court that he was capable of paying and that he has money coming in from reality TV and music projects. He claims that he didn't know that the missing payments hadn't been made, presumably because he's too busy too deal with that sort of thing himself. "I've been shooting a television show and recording an album, so it's hard," he said. "For me, it's easy to not know that a payment is not paid because other people are supposed to pay them."
The former R&B star is expected to make four payments totalling $160,000 within the next six months to establish the trusts. He and troubled wife Whitney Houston will be the subject of a new eight-episode reality TV show, Being Bobby Brown, which you'll be able to see this summer, if you get Bravo.
