Oksana Grigorieva and Mel Gibson

Mel Gibson is to pay former girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva more than £37,000 in child support back payments, following a court ruling. A judge decided Gibson must pay back three months of $20,000 (£12,416) missed payments and allow Grigorieva to live in his Sherman Oaks home with their daughter Lucia.

Gibson and Oksana are still involved in a legal fight after the Lethal Weapon star accused his ex of trying to blackmail him before the eventual release of tapes of phone calls between the pair where Gibson can clearly be heard using racist language, threatening and apparently admitting to physically assaulting Grigorevia.

"I'm fighting for my daughter and for her safety and that's all I'm doing,” Grigorieva told X17. “There's no money involved. It's all about my daughter.”
