Nicki Minaj's Husband Kenneth Petty's Alleged Assault May Cost Her $750K

Nicki Minaj just found herself (and her husband) in more hot legal water, although this time she might be too late to rectify it. Moreover, the rapper faces a default judgement in a $753K lawsuit over an alleged assault that took place during her Frankfurt, Germany tour stop back in 2019. According to a RadarOnline report from Friday (April 28), security guard Thomas Weidenmuller, who first sued the couple back in 2022, motioned for the court to give Minaj a default judgement. Furthermore, it seems like they failed to answer to the lawsuit in time. While the "Super Freaky Girl" MC faces said judgement, Weidenmuller still hasn't been able to obtain it against Kenneth Petty. Perhaps the 40-year-old will not have to pay the lawsuit's full amount as a result, but that's still unclear.




As his story goes, the security guard had a heated discussion prompted by the couple after a fan got past security barricades and on stage with Nicki Minaj. Even though security quickly resolved the issue in 15 seconds, the couple allegedly confronted Weidenmuller and his colleagues after the show. Reportedly, the Trinidadian-born artist called a female security guard on Weidenmuller's team a "f***ing b***h" and trashed her live on social media. That's when the security guard escorted his coworker away from the showdown. When he went to Minaj's dressing room to keep discussing the issue, Kenneth Petty allegedly punched him in the face.

Nicki Minaj Faces Default Judgement Over Kenneth Petty's Alleged Assault

In addition, his claims include the suggestion that Nicki Minaj told her husband to attack him. As such, his lawsuit is on accusations of "battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and negligence," according to court documents from the RadarOnline report. Unfortunately, this is far from the first time the couple faced court action together. The court ordered Petty to settle a lawsuit from his sexual assault accuser after he and Minaj allegedly harassed her to drop her charges.




However, the accuser dropped charges against Nicki, even though she claimed she tried to intimidate her. Moreover, Judge James R. Cho took the case to mediation back in December of 2022 and stated there would be trial if no agreement was reached. How this affected, or will affect, her musical career and public image is still a developing story. On that note, come back to HNHH for the latest news on Kenneth Petty and his wife Nicki Minaj.
