Christina Ricci’s ex-husbandJames Heerdegenis requesting spousal support and child support from the actress following their contentious split.

He also requested Ricci cover the cost of forensic accountant fees which are listed as $50,000, according to the documents.

“James is in desperate need of a fee order as he no longer has any savings, including even his retirement, having depleted them for legal fees, rent payments, and security deposits,” the request read. “Absent a support order, James anticipates that he will soon be completely broke and is even now floundering in debt.”

Ricci filed for divorce from Heerdegen in July 2020. The two married in 2013 after meeting on the set of the showPan Am.
