    Jordana Brewster's ex-husband has been ordered to pay her $32,500 a month in modified child support

    The 44-year-old actress - who has sons Julian, 11, and Rowan, eight, with Andrew Form - split from the film producer in 2020 after 13 years of marriage and, months after they reached a shared custody agreement in April, a court has now clarified financial arrangements between the pair


    According to documents filed in California and obtained by Us Weekly, Andrew, 52, has been ordered to hand over the monthly sums, as well as give Jordana a one-off payment of $100,000 within 10 days.

    In April, the 'Fast X' actress and her estranged husband - whose wife Alexandra Daddario gave birth to their first child last month - agreed that Jordana will have custody of their boys during the week, while Andrew will get to see them at weekends.

    The children will stay permanently in the Santa Barbara area so the 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning' producer can spend time with them, and his ex-wife had to provide a housing allowance for up to three years.

    Julian and Rowan were born via surrogate and the 'Faculty' actress - who is also stepmother to her husband Mason Morfit's four children - recently explained she has been happy to help other women through the process.

    She told People magazine: "I had moms reach out to me and say, 'Hey, can you walk me through this?' Or, 'Can you help me with this?'

    "And I think life is all about paying it forward. And so if I can help someone because of the struggles I went through, I'm more than happy to do that".

    Jordana previously went public with her journey to being a mom back in 2015 and revealed she often felt "awkward" when having to explain her situation.

    She told Yahoo Parenting: "I didn't really have a choice about being open, since it was obvious I wasn't pregnant. And for me it wasn't a choice, I needed to use a surrogate. But I didn't feel judged, it's more like I felt awkward.

    "Sometimes I feel a little left out when other moms talk about what their birth experience was like, and I feel the loss of not having carried or having been able to carry [a baby]. But luckily I keep my circle tight and close, so I never feel judged ...

    "There are so many women who are young and have to go through IVF and feel like they can't talk about it, and that's really unfortunate."
