Megan Fox May Need to Pay Spousal Support to Brian Austin Green

The Transformers star - who filed for divorce from the 42-year-old actor on Friday (21.08.15) - will have to give her husband financial support because of the gap between their incomes, according to TMZ.

Fox and Green were involved in a car accident last December that left the former 90210 actor with vertigo -- a condition which affects balance and has left him unable to work.

Meanwhile, a source previously claimed that the 29-year-old actress - who has sons Noah, two, and Bodhi, 18 months, with Brian - felt "overwhelmed" by her husband's expectations of her.

"Megan and Brian's split is a classic Hollywood story of two people in different stages of life and career," the source explained.

"Megan is young and hot and sought after for work, and she is eager to move ahead in her career. Brian wants more of her time than she can allow.

"She was overwhelmed with the children and her husband's expectations, which got in the way of work responsibilities. They had many disagreements and arguments about her time at home, which led to problems."
