Murilo Huff, father of Léo, the five-year-old son he had with the late singer Marília Mendonça, has initiated a legal battle seeking unilateral custody of his child. Previously, custody was shared with Dona Ruth Moreira, Marília Mendonça's mother, who had been caring for Léo since the singer's death in 2021. Huff stated that his request aims to allow him to fulfill his paternal role more closely and denied intentions to distance the child from his maternal family. The dispute escalated with accusations from Dona Ruth, who claimed Huff had not paid child support, which Huff refuted by detailing expenses exceeding R$15,000 per month for Léo's education, healthcare, recreational activities, and diabetes treatment.
The legal conflict also involves concerns over the management of Léo's inheritance, estimated at around R$500 million, left by Marília Mendonça. Sources revealed tensions between Huff and Dona Ruth, including allegations of negligence and alienation parental against Dona Ruth, such as instructing caregivers to hide medical information from Huff. In a recent court hearing, the judge granted Huff provisional custody of Léo, citing evidence of neglect by Dona Ruth, who has publicly expressed emotional distress over the decision, describing it as "cruel" to the child and family. The ruling allows Huff to have primary custody until the case concludes, with Léo now residing in Huff's home. The family dispute has drawn public attention, with Marília Mendonça's brother, João Gustavo, emotionally appealing for respect toward their mother amid social media attacks. Legal representatives for Dona Ruth have indicated plans to present new evidence to challenge the custody decision. The case continues to unfold, highlighting complex family dynamics and concerns over the child's welfare and inheritance.
