Overview
- Court documents filed in Los Angeles show payments began April 1 and run until the child turns 18, or to 19 if he is still in high school full time.
- Beyond the monthly support, Sia must pay private school tuition, agreed extracurriculars, uninsured medical costs, and maintain the child’s health insurance.
- The agreement requires a $5 million life insurance policy naming the child as beneficiary, or an equivalent trust to secure long‑term support.
- The parents share joint legal custody and follow a set schedule for time with their son, with holidays split so Bernad has Father’s Day and parts of Hanukkah and Sia has Mother’s Day, Easter, and Christmas.
- Sia later posted on X that she is a sober working mom “trying to buy peace,” said she has primary custody, and noted California’s high child‑support costs, while earlier bids by Bernad for emergency sole custody and large spousal support were denied or resolved in 2025.
