Bam Margera Agrees to Pay $2,500 Monthly Child Support
Professional skateboarder and television personality Bam Margera has entered into a child‑support agreement that requires him to pay $2,500 per month to his estranged wife, Nikki Boyd. The settlement, which was filed in a Los Angeles family‑court docket, stipulates that the payments will commence on the first day of the month following the court’s final order and will continue until the child reaches the age of majority or otherwise becomes independent.
According to the court filings obtained by media outlets, the agreement resolves a series of pending disputes that began after the couple’s separation earlier this year. The documents indicate that the parties reached a consensual arrangement without the need for a contested hearing, a development that often speeds the resolution of family‑law matters and reduces legal costs for both sides.
Legal analysts note that the monthly amount falls within the range typically ordered for parents with comparable incomes and custody arrangements. They add that the calculation generally takes into account the paying parent’s earnings, the child’s needs, and any existing support obligations. In this case, Margera’s recent financial disclosures suggest that the figure aligns with standard guidelines for his reported earnings from entertainment and endorsement deals.
Both parties have expressed a desire to minimize further public scrutiny and to focus on co‑parenting responsibilities. Court officials indicated that the agreement includes provisions for periodic review should either parent’s financial situation change substantially. The arrangement is expected to remain in effect unless modified by a future court order, and it underscores the broader trend of celebrity families navigating private matters through formal legal channels rather than prolonged public disputes.
