DailyMail.com has reached out to representatives for both Kimora and Russell who have so far been unavailable for comment.  

Kimora ended her 11-year marriage to Russell in 2009 citing ‘irreconcilable differences.’ They also share 23-year-old daughter Ming Lee Simmons.

Simmons (born Perkins) and her second husband Tim Leissner were sued by Russell over allegedly stealing 4M shares of his stocks in 2018.

The Queens-born New Yorker accused them of making a ‘fraudulent transfer’ of his 50% shares in the energy drink company Celsius to pay Leissner’s legal/bail fees totaling $44M.

The 51-year-old ex-Goldman Sachs banker avoided jail time by pleading guilty to criminal conspiracy to commit money laundering for stealing $2.7B from Malaysian wealth fund 1MDB.

Their youngest daughter Aoki is a Harvard University grad, who currently works as an intern for New York City Mayor Eric Adams.

Aoki also shared the muted video of one of her recent FaceTime conversations with Russell where his face was visibly full of rage.

‘Dad, I stopped talking to you because you were giving me panic attacks to the point I was placed on emergency medication every time we spoke,’ Aoki wrote in a text. 

Kimora wrote via Instastory on Monday: 'I'm so sorry to have to do this. But this man has been threatening my kids' lives. I'm hearing so much more now. We won't be bullied, threatened, or afraid. Who [gives a f***]'

Bad blood: The former married couple have been warring for years, with Russell accusing Kimora in 2021 of stealing 4M shares of his stocks in the energy drink company Celsius to pay her embattled husband Tim Leissner's (L, pictured in 2019) $44M bail.

‘I cannot have a relationship with you until that stops. No one stops me from talking to you, my health does. I have to put that first. Every time I spoke to you, you would yell and scream about a legal situation that I can’t even respond to because I am not involved! I am you child, not your lawyer, your ex-wife – any of it.

‘I can do nothing. Yet you yell at me like it’s my fault. You were putting so much anger and rage on me every phone call. Cursing, screaming, and god knows what else. I’m sorry but I cannot be the target of that, it’s not fair. It got to the point I could not hear your voice without having an anxiety attack. You have to at least respect I’m putting my health and well-being first.’

In texts the ONE Management model shared via Instastory, Russell repeatedly calls Kimora a ‘piece of s***’ who has ‘stolen my money and the love of my kids.’

‘She did not steal it. You lost it. Understand? You lost it with your actions,’ Aoki defended in her reply.

‘It’s like talking to a cruel child or something, and no he does not financially support me,’ wrote Simmons who claimed the native New Yorker calls herself, her mother, and her sister ‘bi***es.’

‘He hasn’t given me a dime in years. I haven’t had a graduation gift, a birthday gift, so much as a taxi ride in years.’

In a tearful video, Simmons said Russell has ‘completely changed’ since being accused of over 20 women of sexual assault and misconduct, which led to his life in exile in Bali (due to extradition laws).

Aoki wrote: 'Some of us do think he's mentally ill or experiencing something like dementia, he really acts like he hates and does not know his children frequently. Prior to his media issues, he was really the best dad ever and a great co-parent. He and my mom were best friends. We all defended him against anything, and then he suddenly turned on anyone who will let him lash out. It's a really just terrifying change to watch'

Simmons’ #MeToo scandal was detailed in Kirby Dick + Amy Ziering’s critically-acclaimed documentary On the Record, which premiered in 2020 on HBO Max.

‘Some of us do think he’s mentally ill or experiencing something like dementia, he really acts like he hates and does not know his children frequently,’ Aoki wrote.

Kimora is also mother to two sons – Wolfe, 8; and Gary, 14 – with Tim (whom she hasn’t been pictured with since 2019), and she mothered 14-year-old son Kenzo with ex-fiancé, two-time Oscar nominee Djimon Hounsou.
