New York Post • • entertainment
Key Points:
- Stevie Wonder has filed a lawsuit to evict his ex-fiancée, Carmen Efferson, from his Studio City home where she has lived rent-free since 1988 under an oral agreement.
- The legal action followed Efferson's refusal to allow property tax inspectors access and her use of profane language in communications with Wonder’s legal representatives.
- The three-bedroom, four-bathroom property is valued at nearly $1.8 million, and Wonder’s legal team is also seeking $600 for a penalty related to lapsed property insurance.
- Efferson declined multiple opportunities to permit inspections and refused to vacate after a three-day eviction notice was issued in October, prompting the formal eviction lawsuit.
- Stevie Wonder, married since 2017, is currently on tour celebrating the 50th anniversary of his album "Songs in the Key of Life."
