Jay-Z Sued For Fathering A Son And Avoiding Paternity Test

Jay-Z has been hit with a claim that he has a secret love child. According to a report by The National Enquirer, Beyonce's husband - real name Shawn Corey Carter - was sued by 21-year-old Rymir Satterthwait, who claims to be his son.

Court documents uncovered in the report show that the 45-year-old rapper was sued by Satterthwait (via his legal guardian) in 2014.

Satterthwait - who is said to be an aspiring rapper - allegedly told a court in New Jersey that his mother Wanda had an affair with Carter in the 1990s, and that he has done everything in his power to cover it up.

According to the magazine, Satterthwaite, through his legal guardian – a paralegal name Lillie Coley – accused Jay-Z of lying to the court to avoid taking a paternity test.

In 2010, a judge dismissed a similar case in which Satterthwaite's mother tried to force Jay-Z to submit the paternity test after another man turned out not to be the young man’s father.

However, The Enquirer reports that the judge dismissed the case only because he ruled that his court lacked jurisdiction over Jay-Z, and not because the court concluded that he was not Satterthwaite's biological father.

The dismissal of the case paved the road for Coley, Satterthwaite's guardian, to file the 2014 civil lawsuit.

Coley alleges that Jay-Z and his lawyer, Lisa Fisher, provided "false" and "fraudulent" information to the judge, arguing that he lied to the court when claiming that he lived in New York and not in New Jersey, where he reportedly owns three houses.

The magazine also show that the alleged love child and his guardian argue that Jay-Z lied by saying his legal residence was on Broadway in Manhattan, when in fact, the Broadway address that he supplied is not his home, but his office.

After examining photos of Jay-Z and the a picture that The Enquirer took on Feb. 3 of Satterthwaite, Dr. Anthony Youn, a leading plastic surgeon, tells the magazine that the pair's similar features could suggest that Jay-Z is his biological father.

"Their facial structures appear very similar! It could be a sign of inheritance," says Youn.
