    In a statement at the time, King claimed that Sophy only filed her lawsuit after she failed to pressure Young to drop a 2023 “confidential complaint” to the California Osteopathic Medical Board for “dereliction of duty and incredible incompetence”.

    “That complaint seeks the revocation of Dr. Sophy’s license…” King said. He added that Sophy was allegedly fired because the counselor encouraged one of the couple’s children “to take sides against (Dre), even encouraging his son to go to the press with false accusations” to “force a financial settlement that he recommended.” “.

    Sophy also claimed that some of Dre’s alleged threats were based on his sexual orientation.
