‘Bachelorette’ alum DeAnna Pappas scored a win in her battle over money with her ex-husband Stephen Stagliano … after claiming she was living off her savings to survive, TMZ has learned.
DeAnna and Stephen faced off in a L.A. courtroom, where the judge ended up siding with the reality star.
The judge ordered Stephen to pay DeAnna $27,240 for money owed in the divorce settlement. Stephen will have to pay her $500 a month … and if he misses a single payment, the entire amount is due immediately.
As TMZ previously reported, DeAnna claimed Stephen owed her $109K due to money he moved out of his retirement account … an account she had an interest in. Stephen admitted he owed the money … but denied he did anything malicious.
The exes wed in 2011 and split in 2023 … they share two minor kids. The court recently reduced his child support obligations due to him losing his job in the gaming industry … which led to him taking a job with Uber to make ends meet.
For her part, DeAnna claims she is also struggling financially after losing her job. She said she earns around $2,618 per month as a flight attendant.
