Stevie was recently ordered to pay approximately $1,304,835.86 in unpaid child support to his ex-girlfriend and mother of two of his children, Carol Bennett, according to Page Six.
Stevie, who has six kids in total, will be on probation the next three years unless he can produce the money faster.
“I accept full responsibility for not fully financially supporting my children when I was younger," Stevie told the judge, "but I’ve stepped up to the plate now and I fully support my children not only financially, but they are the closest individual to me."
