daaaaaaang!!!! what is going on with her!!!!!

---------------

Sherri Shepherd is now facing custody battles on two fronts.

"The View" host, 47, is fighting for custody of her 9-year-old son Jeffrey with her first husband Jeffrey Tarpley, People reports.

According to court documents obtained by the gossip magazine, Tarpley filed for an emergency modification to his custody arrangement with Shepherd in July 2013, claiming that their son was suffering from "neglect."

The petition contends that Jeffrey has special needs, can barely write, and cannot tie his own shoes.

Tarpley claims' that Shepherd's work schedule "caused her to neglect Jeffrey and deprive him accress to basic educational needs, a nurturing and loving environment, and care that Jeffrey so desperately needs."

Tarpley also claims that Shepherd left care of their son to "unskilled nannies." The couple split in 2011 after ten years of marriage.

The revelation comes at the same time that Shepherd is going through divorce proceedings with her second husband, Lamar Sally.

According to TMZ, a prenup guarantees that Shepherd has full custody of her second, unborn child, currently being carried by a surrogate.

Sally is reportedly seeking to invalidate their prenup on grounds of fraud and obtain full custody of the baby.

Sounds like a very tense situation. What a mess. Wonder how she manages to handle all of this plus go to work every day. I would be a basket case.

I've been reading about this for the last several days, Jeffrey Sr. lost the first round but a later hearing is to be held in July (not too sure). Although I'm not a fan of Sherri, IMO both men are leeches and want to live off of Sherri's money.

I think she and her first hubby split long before 2011, she has been married since then to second one.

What a mess! I didn't know they were having a baby - sort of. Is she going through with the surrogate thing? I was very surprised when I heard about this second divorce. Just a bit ago it was ""Sal"" this and ""Sal"" that and she seemed to be crazy about him. I hope that is not true about her neglecting the boy and leaving him too much with nannies. Very sad .

It's move by the first husband to get money from here, he lost the emergency hearing and now has to cool his heels to wait for an answer.

Witin the last year and a half Sherri bought a new home in NJ where she resides. It could be that the first husband wants the same kind of home too.

The way she talks about disciplining her child has always concerned me. Maybe the father has legitimate concerns.

I am confused as to the parents of the unborn child. Is it her egg and he is the daddy....or did they use a surrogate egg ? If it was half his and not really hers, I could see where he would ant full custody ?

.....or the woman who is carrying the child could be a gestational carrier, so the child is both Sal's and Sherri's.

Sherry is on QVC right this moment selling her wigs. She looks good in the one she is wearing.
