Serena Williams' father Richard Williams has slapped his ex-wife Lakeisha Williams with a $1 million lawsuit. Richard, whose life inspired the biographical film 'King Richard' starring Will Smith, has had a tumultuous relationship with Lakeisha. He has always blamed his ex-wife for losing their maternal home in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. The allegations and drama surrounding this 4-bed mansion have been pretty over-the-top. Richard claimed in court documents that Lakeisha remortgaged the house by faking his signatures. He then reveals that she gave up the place for merely 10 bucks!

According to the suit filed at US Bankruptcy Court Southern District of Florida, Richard wants the money from the property sale to go directly to him. This transaction would also include the legal fees that Lakeisha would have to pay. The couple has now been at war for almost 6 years and their divorce has only triggered more lawsuits. Richard's lawyer Thomas Gruseck states in the court documents that, "The defendant, Lakeisha Williams, is one hundred percent at fault, by virtue of her improper actions as set forth above, for the encumbrance reducing the net value of the Plaintiff's subject property by virtue of the mortgage in favor of David Simon."
