Dr. Dre has initiated another legal salvo in his controversial divorce from Nicole Young, producing a prenuptial agreement that his ex refused to acknowledge.
The agreement states that the property bought by Dre or Young will be kept separate due to the divorce, TMZ reported on Wednesday.
Although the document may prevent his estranged wife from taking ownership of his property, it still allows her to receive marital support in a divorce.

Despite the filing of the application, the judge supervising the divorce will decide whether the pre-registration is valid and enforceable.
Young claimed that Dre (real name: Andre Young) had previously terminated the agreement shortly after they were married, although he denied her claim.
The prenuptial copy appears to say it can only be revoked or amended in writing, and Dre claims the move was never taken.

The 50-year-old attorney asked Dre for staggering amounts during their divorce proceedings, including $ 5 million for her attorney’s costs and $ 1.5 million for incidental expenses, including insurance.
In October, a judge denied a request for security costs and refused to spend $ 5 million on legal fees.
Young asked her ex-husband for an incredible $ 2 million in spousal support per month.
However, Dre’s lawyer Laura Wasser claims that her rapper Nuthin ‘But A’ G ’Thang covers all the costs since their separation.
His latest application says he is paying for the house in Malibu where Young currently resides, as well as security.

When she needs money, the courier delivers cash, the report said.
A statement filed by Dre from his certified public accountant claims that his ex only spends a still huge sum of $ 293,306 a month, suggesting that she may have inflated her claim beyond her needs and what she is used to.
In November, TMZ reported that Young had filed documents requesting that Dre be forced to testify in person, instead of his preferred ability to testify remotely via video chat.
He claims that he violated the recommendations on the safety of the coronavirus in his personal life, and remote testimony could enable his lawyers to teach him.
Young is also trying to sue the alleged mistress of her ex-husband.
She and Dre share two children, a 23-year-old son Truice and a 19-year-old daughter Truly.
