Bhad Bhabie claims she paid $25k to "terminate" her father's "parental rights"

Bhad Bhabie recently explained about her difficult relationship with her father, adding that she had once allegedly paid $25k to ensure the termination of her father's paternal rights. According to TMZ, Bhabie opened up in a now-deleted Instagram post that showed alleged screenshots and reciepts indicating a payment of $25k to an unnamed person for a "full and complete settlement" on a specific issue.

Bhad Bhabie, whose real name is Danielle Peskowitz Bregoli, rose to fame in 2017 with her debut single, "These Heaux," which peak at the No.77 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart. Since then, she has released several songs, with her recent single "Honest" releasing just last week. In her new song, she takes a dig at both of her parents, particularly her father, who she accuses of trying to only establish a relationship with her once she became famous. In her song, Bhad Bhabie sings:

"Since I was 3 everything on me / my pops ain’t want me in his life / Seen I was famous now he tryna get in touch with me like I should care / It’s f*ck him though. I hope he waste away / What kinda father sacrifices a relationship for 20K?”

Bhad Bhabie, in her song "Honest" released on October 17, also indicated that her father was allegedly willing to accept a payment of $20,000, than rather pursue a healthy relationship with her. A week after the release of the song, Bhad Bhabie's father, Ira Peskowitz, sat down for an interview with TMZ, where he accused the rapper of lying about the incident regarding him accepting $20k from her. He said:

“I didn’t sell her for $20,000. was trying to be part of her life way before Dr. Phil ... I have documentation to show that I tried to get her into a program to try to help her out. I don’t know why she hates me so much ... I don’t want my daughter’s money.”

According to TMZ, he further added that these lies were, in fact, something fed to Bhad Bhabie by her mother, Barbara Ann Bregoli. He said:

"A narcissist, or other people, they alienate a child by saying so many negative things about the other. Dani, I'm truly disappointed in you. I know you have a lot of issues. I know I hurt you in the past, but I was here for you. I was, but if you keep bashing me and trashing me like this, I can't be around. I can't sit back and let you get destroyed."

According to Complex News, soon after this interview was published, Bhad Bhabie took to Instagram. In her post, she showed how much money she allegedly paid her father, adding that she did so despite earlier attempts to mend their relationship. She explained in caption of the now-deleted post, writing:

"I paid 25k actually to terminate my FATHER parental rights years ago. I tried to refix are [sic] relationship but it didn’t work. The only reason I gave him another chance was because LV suggested I have my father in my life."

At the moment Ira Peskowitz has not released a statement after the "Gucci Flip Flop" singer posted the screenshots of her alleged payment to him for termination of his paternal rights.
