Christina Ricci Court Battle Intensifies as Ex Requests Alcohol Testing
Yahoo • • entertainment
Key Points:
- Christina Ricci and her ex-husband James Heerdegen are involved in a new court dispute centered on their son Freddie and allegations related to a recent flight to Canada.
- Heerdegen requested court-ordered alcohol testing of Ricci after Freddie reportedly expressed concerns about her drinking during the trip, but those claims were later retracted by Freddie during a conversation with his legal representative.
- The court denied Heerdegen’s request for alcohol testing and agreed to keep all records related to the incident sealed to protect Freddie’s mental health and privacy.
- The ongoing custody battle follows a contentious divorce finalized in 2022, during which Ricci accused Heerdegen of abuse and Heerdegen alleged Ricci struggled with substance abuse.
- Ricci has since remarried and had a daughter, while continuing to share custody of Freddie with Heerdegen, with the court currently unwilling to alter custody arrangements based on the latest allegations.
