Members frequentsoapfan Posted January 27, 2013 Members Share Posted January 27, 2013 As if his famous mom's divorce wasn't bad enough -- "High School Musical" star Chris Warren has now filed a lawsuit against BOTH his parents, accusing the pair of stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars of his child acting money. Warren filed the lawsuit against "Passions" actress Brook Kerr and Christopher Warren Sr., claiming they established a trust for him back in 2001 for all the money he made as a minor -- and have been secretly dipping into the kitty ... big time. According to the lawsuit, Chris paid into the account for years, but when he decided to make a withdrawal back in 2011 -- as a 21-year-old -- his parents refused to grant him access. When pressed, Chris claims his parents admitted they had blown through hundreds of thousands of dollars of his money on their own personal expenses ... but refused to say how much was left in the account. Chris is now suing his parents for all the money back ... even though he's still not sure exactly how much they took. Reminder: Chris' parents are currently embroiled in a nasty divorce. Neither parent has responded to Chris' lawsuit. http://www.tmz.com/2013/01/27/high-school-musical-chris-warren-parents-lawsuit-divorce/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ann_SS Posted January 27, 2013 Members Share Posted January 27, 2013 I cannot get over these people who steal from their children and I don't just mean celebrity children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 27, 2013 Members Share Posted January 27, 2013 Poor Jackie Coogan was ruined by this, and there were supposed to be laws in place after that. I guess some things never change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted January 27, 2013 Members Share Posted January 27, 2013 I wonder why they didn't pick her for that True Blood role she did the pilot for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted January 27, 2013 Members Share Posted January 27, 2013 Wow! I had no idea any of this was going on. BK had been with Chris since she was about 14. They had Jr. When she was 15 or 16. Her parents threw her out when she refused to leave Sr., and they had been thick as thieves (no pun...) since. Wow! Just wow! Can't be easy to sue your parents.

Members DRW50 Posted January 27, 2013 Members Share Posted January 27, 2013 That does seem to matter a little more on Alan Ball shows than elsewhere, but... I had wondered if it was her age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted January 27, 2013 Members Share Posted January 27, 2013 Coogan's Law didn't help Gary Coleman, Leann Rhymes, etc... She hardly looks almost 40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 27, 2013 Members Share Posted January 27, 2013 I hadn't seen her in a while - most of my memories are of the first few years of Passions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members psychofan Posted January 27, 2013 Members Share Posted January 27, 2013 OMG I had no idea that she was almost 40. And I'm very sad to hear about this. I always hate finding out not-so-great stuff about people I've liked...and I always loved her as Whitney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
