    Fabrice “Fab” Morvan is disclosing his finances to the court. 

    The Milli Vanilli musician—known for performing ’90s hits such as “Girl I’m Gonna Miss You” alongside late bandmate Rob Pilatus—declared his income and expenses in court Sept. 18 amid his divorce proceedings from estranged wife and manager Kim Marlowe. 

    In addition to earning a monthly salary of $1,846, as reported in court documents obtained by E! News, Morvan also indicated that he receives a monthly bonus of $1,500, bringing his annual income to around $40,000. 

    As such, the 60-year-old—who lives with partner Tessa van der Steen and their kids Sacha,13, and Solange,10, as well as twins Vince and Paris, both 5, in Amsterdam—receives help from van der Steen to cover their family’s expenses, per the doc. In fact, Morvan’s records show that his partner funds the majority of their over $9,000 budget.  

    Additionally, the “Blame It On The Rain” artist said that Marlowe—who managed his career from 1992 until 2023—obtained portions of his earnings over the past several decades, per the docs.

    “In addition to any income Kim may have earned from her own efforts,” Morvan alleged in the filing, “she has also retained most of my earnings from various projects from 1992 until October 2023.” 

    Morvan privately married Marlowe in 1998, with his ex filing for divorce in 2024 due to “irreconcilable differences” and listing their date of separation as Jan. 2 of that year, per the divorce petition obtained by TMZ. The singer, however, contested Marlowe’s timeline in separate documents obtained by the outlet, stating that he split from her romantically two years after marriage and that he withheld from initiating divorce due to fear of “blackmail” by his ex.
