Terrence Howard was back in court yesterday battling his ex-wife Michelle Ghent.

Howard is seeking to have his divorce settlement with Ghent thrown out on the basis of extortion. He claims that he was forced to sign it because Ghent allegedly possessed sex tapes and photos to get more spousal support than she deserved.

According to TMZ, the first person called to the stand was Terrence’s sister-in-law, Yvonne Howard and she testified about Ghent allegedly extorting Howard. She reportedly said that Ghent had him by the balls and claimed to have a tape of Howard engaged in a threesome.

Howard’s lawyer reportedly played a 2011 conversation between Howard and Ghent where Ghent is heard saying “I will f*** bury you deep within the ground.” Howard is heard telling her ” I’ll drain everything I got to take care of it.” Ghent, like several of Howard’s ex-wives and girlfriends also accused him of domestic violence during their brief marriage.

USAToday reports that Howard was reprimanded by the judge in the case after taking a photo of the courtroom audience. After saying “You guys are always in my business, you don’t want me in yours,” Howard was informed by the judge that photo was a violation of court rules.

Wow. Terrence Howard really is Lucious. Hopefully, this gets resolved soon.

We just want ‘Empire‘ season two.
