Melody Shari Scores Another Victory Against Martell Holt in Ongoing Custody Case

Martell Holt filed salacious claims in court against Melody Shari.

Love and Marriage: Huntsville” star Melody Shari Rodgers secures another victory in her long-standing custody battle with ex-husband Martell Holt. As previously reported, Martell Holt was ordered by the Alabama judge to receive a psychological evaluation immediately, attend family counseling sessions with his kids, and pay Melody Shari’s attorney fees. Martell has until their next court hearing to comply with the order not to lose custody and visitation rights.

Despite this order, it appears Martell is still woefully disobeying orders. Instead, he filed his motion, disregarding the order, and wanted the courts to hear allegations of misbehavior on Melody’s part and to hold her in contempt of the court. According to Urban Belle, these documents were filed on September 26th, 2024.

Martell’s claims include the following allegations:

  • Melody allows the children to visit and stay with her mother, Vanessa Tracey, without giving him the “first right of refusal.”
  • Melody won’t give Martell’s Vanessa’s contact information.
  • Claims Melody allowed their two oldest children to drive her motor vehicle.
  • Melody uses corporal punishment on their youngest daughter.
  • Claims Melody has a romantic relationship with her security personnel, who is allegedly married.

Melody Shari gains another win against Martell Holt in their ongoing custody battle.

Melody and her legal team swiftly filed motions in response to Martell’s allegations. According to court documents filed on October 1st, Melody requested that the court change their hearing from October 16th to December 2nd. This is because Martell’s ongoing appeal hearing is scheduled for December 2nd. This prevents any action on Martell in the custody case. As previously reported, Martell was found guilty of Domestic Violence: Harassing Communications.

She also filed a separate motion asking Martell’s counterclaim to be thrown out of court. Melody and her attorneys claim Martell does not have the evidence to substantiate the claims he made in the counterclaim.

While the judge has yet to rule on throwing out Martell’s counterclaim, the judge did rule to move their court date until after the appeal hearing is granted.

  1. Good for Melody. She needs to stay focused and keep fighting in court. Martell is avoiding that psych eval because he doesn’t want the court to find out about his mental illness.

    1. Because she can earn as many checks as she pleases? What kind of question is this? Do you like everybody you work with? That ain’t got sh-t to do with getting paid. None of these people like each other. I have no idea why y’all put so much emphasis on Melody not liking them.

    2. Because Melody is the one that brought her original idea of a show to that man at kingdom reign.
      Although, after hearing her original vision, he changed it to what it is today and more than likely Melody was given an EP title/credit as part of the deal/negotiations.
      Also, let’s not get it twisted, it is the “cast” and their minions that are constantly spewing and exhibiting the ongoing hate, because it plainly obvious that Melody doesn’t give those people not one thought, she’s Booked and Busy. She don’t have time for the simpletons.

    3. BECAUSE SHE THINKS THE SHOW IS HER SHOW AND EVERYTHING EVOLVES AROUND HER. Martell needs to sit down. He keeps using his kids to try and see her and be around her. Bro you F it up so get you another star…if possible

  2. Really sick of both of them , Children usually do go to their maternal grandparents homes more often , I’m sure her spanking sugar mama ain’t killing her and the older kids are not driving the G Wagon to the grocery store , Give full custody to Mel and Martell visitation rights . And put them both behind the camera , we focusing on Stormi and Destiny they are the show ..

    1. Focusing on Stormi and destiny, HA, not even!! I doubt that she’s spanking Suga Mama or any of the kids, that clown is just projecting.
      He most definitely should have supervised visitation if anything at this point because it’s obvious the he’s unraveling.

  3. Stormi and Destiny can leave the show in my opinion. They have nothing to offer. The both used Mel to get on the show then turned on her. More than likely Stormi did record Mel’s conversation then gave it to Destiny to share with Martell.

    1. I’m truly tired of this show:Let’s be real they were having problems before we knew of any of them. They both needed a storyline so here you go, it’s been very boring. Martell, needs to go to a counselor. Melody, throw away friends one minute she’s my friend next minute she’s not, and these people to sign these papers for what not to discuss you WOW. Get rid of Martell, he should not come back period.
