Rapper Post Malone and his ex-fiancée Hee Sung “Jamie” Park have now settled their months-long custody and support battle over their three-year-old daughter in Utah.
Court records show the case, which stretched between Utah and California for much of 2025, has officially been resolved.
According to court documents obtained in Utah, the 30-year-old celebrity and Park recently told the judge they had worked out every major point, including paternity, custody, parenting time, and child support, although the exact terms are sealed from public view.
Multiple outlets including People and TMZ reported that the agreement was filed on November 13, bringing a complicated chapter to a close.
In reports from Taste of Country, the settlement ends a roughly seven-month dispute that began in April 2025, when Malone first filed in Salt Lake City, only for Park to submit her own petition in Los Angeles a few days later.
Perez Hilton and Us Weekly both framed it as an unusually intense tug of war over which state would even hear the case in the first place.
A family divided across two states
Court papers cited by Complex describe Malone’s side accusing Park of quickly enrolling their daughter in a string of activities in Los Angeles, arguing it was a strategy to make California look like the child’s home base rather than Utah. TMZ added that his legal team stressed the child’s long-standing ties to Utah, from her nanny to her doctor to regular classes back in Salt Lake City.
These reports suggested Park’s California filing may have been driven partly by the state’s reputation for more generous child-support outcomes, compared with what a parent might expect in Utah.
Malone’s attorneys pushed back hard, characterizing the move as an attempt to reroute the case into a friendlier system and asking the court to reject what they saw as a backdoor residency shift.
Attorneys eventually steered the fight back to Utah, especially after Park abandoned her Los Angeles petition with prejudice over the summer, which meant that particular case could not be revived. HipHopWired and HotNewHipHop both noted that dropping the California action also cut off her bid to formally relocate the child from Utah to Los Angeles.
A family kept mostly out of view
The Utah settlement filing, which was summarized by People, Reality Tea, and many other outlets only refer to the little girl by her initials, DDP. The filings only confirm that she was born in May 2022 and that she has spent most of her life in Utah. Neither parent has ever publicly shared the child’s full name, nor has any coverage of the case.
Observers of Malone’s career will know that he has spoken about trying to shield his daughter from fame and the strain he suffers of balancing touring with fatherhood. GEO and other outlets highlighted how often he described missing her while on the road, especially as his career grew.
MusicTimes noted that the agreement covers day-to-day care, visitation, child support, and paternity, but fans and onlookers will not see a line-by-line breakdown of who gets which weekends or holidays. Some things are definitely best left private.
Fans will probably welcome this truce and may simply wish the next Post Malone headlines are about concerts and albums.
