Dillard, 43, made headlines in March after his ex-girlfriend Alexis Adams claimed that the “Cake” singer was behind on medical and tuition payments for their disabled son, Zohar.The accusations come after the singer’s 6-year-old son fell out of a fifth-story Jersey City apartment window. According to Adams, the tyke’s medical bills have only increased.
