The ongoing battle between Mel Gibson and Oksana Grigorieva, the mother of his love child, has taken yet another turn.
Grigorieva is now alleging that the multi-millionaire actor is not paying child support for their eight-month-old daughter Lucia, according to reports.
The Russian musician, 40, told The Mail on Sunday that the “cruel” actions of the Braveheart star, who is thought to be worth around £600 million ($905million) are forcing her to live off cash borrowed from friends.
Speaking from her home in Los Angeles, Grigorieva told the UK newspaper: “He is not paying me a penny. Nothing.
“There are so many lies being said about me. I was trying to keep things dignified and be respectful to the father of my daughter, but what he is doing is cruelty.
“I am having to live on credit cards and borrowed money. It is not a good situation.”
A US website reported on Friday claims that Gibson had taken out a restraining order against Grigorieva. But she said: “There is no restraining order against me, but my lawyers went to court and a judge granted a restraining order against him.”
A clerk at Los Angeles Superior Court confirmed the restraining order against Gibson had been filed but added that the case would be heard by a judge sitting in-camera this week.
Gibson’s spokesman last night declined to comment about Grigorieva’s claims.

When In Rome star Kristen Bell has said she has no idea what kind of wedding she wants.
The 29-year-old actress is engaged to Dax Shepard but said she has not done any planning yet.
Speaking at the Loft Fall preview party at the Chateau Marmont, she said to E!: “Not as of yet!”
Stewart added that she does not know what type of wedding she wants at the moment.
She will soon be heading to Cancun, Mexico, but not for a bachelorette party.
Bell added: “It’s actually for a press conference of all things! I have to go… it’s for work.”

Given his injuries it appears that the striker from Arsenal unfortunately never made it on the field for Denmark’s game against Japan. Morten Olsen, Denmark’s coach, had this to say about Nicklas Bendtner’s possibilities of playing prior to the game: “He has been doing quite all right. It’s by necessity that every other day he does not participate in the practice. Every time he has played we wait to see the reaction from his injury. There’s always a doubt when we have injuries like that, so we will have to wait and see.” A pity he didn’t manage to get on the field… may he might have made a difference in the game against Japan.

Farrah Fawcett will have the first anniversary of her death marked with the opening of a new headquarters of her charity.
The Charlie’s Angels star died on June 25 last year – the same day as Michael Jackson – following a long battle with cancer.
In the years before her death she set up the Farrah Fawcett Foundation to fund research into alternative cancer treatments.
The actress struggled to expand the charity as she underwent her own gruelling battle with the disease, but the past 12 months has seen it grow.
Fawcett’s friends and family will gather at the new office in Beverly Hills to cut the ribbon and remember their loved one.
Close friend Alana Stewart told Entertainment Tonight: “I’ll get very teary and miss her, but I feel her spirit is so strong, I feel like she went to a place where she’s free, she’s happy, and I feel she’s looking over all of us.
“We’re officially opening the offices on Friday, the one-year anniversary of her passing. I think it’s very fitting. I think it’s what she would have wanted.”
