CUSTODY BATTLE

Otunga and his ex-partner, Jennifer Hudson, had a long and drawn-out custody battle over David Jr., finding themselves in the courtroom for two years. Finally, they came to a legal compromise in July of 2019.

However, the battle was ruthless. Hudson alleged that Otunga had become aggressive and went as far as to file a protective order to purportedly keep her and her son out of harm's way.

THROUGH A MOTHER'S EYES

Speaking about motherhood and bringing up a son, Hudson opened up about how being a parent has made her different as a person in any way. She expressed:

"I always say, you never know how much your parents loved you until you have a child to love."

She said she can only view the world now through the lens of being a mother. Continuing, she emphatically and excitedly declared how deeply she loves her son.

Of course, David Jr. loves spending time with his mommy as well. Last year for Christmas, the two celebrated together by having fun and festively decorating the house.

In one Instagram post, the little boy sat gleefully by the Christmas tree, holding the presents he planned to gift to others. Fans loved it, gushing over the decorations and Hudson's adorable son.
