Rapper and entrepreneur 50 Cent has initiated legal action against his former partner, Daphne Joy, in response to allegations of defamation. The lawsuit comes after Daphne Joy accused the renowned artist of sexual assault and misconduct, sparking a contentious legal battle between the two.

According to reports from TMZ, legal documents reveal that 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, asserts that Daphne Joy has tarnished his reputation by spreading falsehoods about their past relationship. The allegations surfaced when Daphne Joy took to Instagram to accuse 50 Cent of bullying her and attempting to gain full custody of their son, Sire, amid rumors of her involvement with music mogul Diddy.

The situation escalated further when Daphne Joy was linked to a legal dispute involving Diddy, as she was named in a lawsuit alongside the hip-hop icon, alleging involvement in the sex industry. In response to these developments, 50 Cent filed a petition seeking sole custody of their son, prompting Daphne Joy to address the matter on social media.

In the legal filings, 50 Cent contends that Daphne Joy’s public statements have had detrimental effects on his business endeavors and his efforts to secure custody of their child. Despite attempts to resolve the issue privately, including a formal request for Daphne Joy to retract her accusations and remove the contentious posts, she reportedly refused and allegedly demanded financial compensation, along with a commitment from 50 Cent to drop the custody case.

50 Cent vehemently rejected Daphne Joy’s demands, accusing her of extortion and escalating the dispute to a legal battle. In his lawsuit, the rapper seeks $1 million in damages, as well as a court order mandating the removal of the defamatory statements and prohibiting any further disparaging remarks from Daphne Joy.
