Bam Margera, notorious for his outrageous antics, is now required to pay a substantial amount in child support to his former partner following their recent separation.
A report by TMZ detailed that Margera, the well-known personality from Jackass and Viva La Bam, consented to provide his ex-wife Nikki Boyd with $2,500 monthly. This agreement supports the upbringing of their 8-year-old son, Phoenix. The couple legally parted ways in 2023, though a 2024 court decision asserted that their marriage was never legally valid, as their vows were exchanged in Reykjavík, Iceland.
Boyd initially demanded $15,000 monthly in child support, citing Margera’s substantial estimated net worth of over $55,000,000. However, a compromise was reached at a considerably lower figure.
The dissolution of their relationship has been fraught with conflict for several years. Boyd applied for exclusive custody of Phoenix in 2021 while they were yet to divorce officially. The formal divorce was finalized in 2023, aggravating Margera’s struggles with substance abuse, evidenced by a DUI arrest in late 2024.
Margera first gained fame through the CKY video series, showcasing him and his friends engaging in skateboarding tricks and perilous stunts. His work caught the attention of television producer Jeff Tremaine who connected him with Johnny Knoxville, leading to the creation of the iconic MTV stunt show Jackass.
Following his separation from Boyd, Margera has moved on personally. He got engaged to model Dannii Marie in 2023, and they exchanged wedding vows the following year.
