Personal Life
Joe Budden has been in a number of high-profile relationships, publicized by the media, in his lyrics, and on Twitter. He was involved in a long-time relationship with video model Esther Baxter; their break up was detailed in Budden's freely released song "Ordinary Love Shit Pt. 3 (Closure)". In this song he accuses Baxter—while pregnant with hers and Budden's child—of cheating on him with NFL runningback Derrick Ward. Statements by Baxter made in an interview claim that Budden abused her and caused her to miscarry. She also claims that while they were dating, Budden was inappropriately flirtatious with women on Twitter.
Budden has a son from a previous relationship. In 2010, he was wanted by New Jersey police in relation to unpaid child support payments.
In early 2012, Joe Budden announced that he was dating someone. However, it wasn't until August 2012 that he revealed his relationship with Kaylin Garcia publicly.
