Michael Turner and his ex, Rasheeda Walker-Williamson, are locked in a bitter child support battle that has exposed some randy messages. 

TMZ reports Rasheeda wants the former San Diego Chargers and Atlanta Falcons running back to be found in contempt of court. The reason for this? He allegedly failed to comply with a judge’s order. 

“Michael’s ex, Rasheeda Walker-Williamson, asked the court to find him in contempt for failing to pay his share of medical bills and to properly set up certain financial accounts,” the publication reports

The former couple has two kids, daughter Micah Turner and son Michael Hayden Walker. They were born in 2009 and 2011, respectively.

Turner has been paying $7,500 in child support since last year. However, his baby mama has filed a motion for contempt, accusing Michael of refusing to communicate with her regarding certain issues. 

She attached emails to her complaint, including one in which she asks him for help with their son’s tuition. 

Michael’s reply was, “Holla at me next year.” 

He then responded with multiple eggplant and tongue emojis to subsequent messages.

Another email showed Rasheeda telling him she’d been paying their son’s tuition for years. He again responded with an eggplant emoji.

“Your responses have consistently been eggplant and tongue emojis. I do not have time for the disrespect or games,” a fed-up Rasheeda replied. “I am focused on parenting and making sure the children’s names are met.”

Of course… another eggplant emoji. 

He later sent her multiple photos of herself. 

“Not sure why your response consisted of pictures of me,” she wrote back.

“You got a job working for your husband right. I’m sure that will cover anything that’s needed for the time being,” Michael said in another message.

The 44-year-old was a fifth-round pick by the Chargers in 2004. The two-time All-Pro and two-time Pro Bowler joined the Falcons in 2008 and did not sign with another team after they released him in 2012.

Of note, another ex, Maria Grissom, is also taking him to task over unpaid child support.
