Bunch actor Barry Williams is accusing his baby mama of causing his new
reality show to be cancelled and ticket sales for his musical to drop
due to her trashing him in the press calling him a deadbeat dad.
He is now requesting a California judge slap her with a gag order prohibiting her from talking about him.
The Brady Bunch star's ex-girlfriend, Elizabeth Kennedy,slapped him with a child support/custody lawsuit earlier this year.
She claimed he physically and emotionally abandoned both her and their daughter Samantha Williams, who is now three years old.
Elizabeth
explained in legal documents that she was Barry's 'spousal equivalent'
from April 2006 through March 2013 and the court to order him to pay
her $3,423 to cover her basic needs.

Williams' most famous role was as oldest son Greg Brady on the 1970's sitcom The Brady Bunch
But in brand new court documents obtained exclusively by Daily Mail Online Williams says he never abandoned them.
In
fact, the 60-year-old actor states he requested visitation periods with
his daughter at his home in Missouri, as well as telephone and
FaceTime/Skype calls with her, but his baby mama refuses to allow any of
it.
Williams goes even further explaining Elizabeth will not share in the expenses to raise their daughter as she claims she is too ill to work.
However,
the actor points out that she wasn't too ill to do numerous television
and print press appearances where she brutally trashed him by labeling
him a deadbeat dad.
He
accuses her of timing her interviews to coincide with the opening of
his 2015 live musical show, The 70's Music Celebration! Starring Barry
Williams - which opened in March - and also the premier of his reality
cable television show.
He
states, 'The ugly remarks directed at respondent undoubtedly was the
cause of significant harm to ticket sales of the live show and to the
cancellation of the television show, due to the ugly acts attributed to
Respondent, which do not go over well with the conservative Branson,
Missouri audiences.
'Worst yet, it leaves a sad legacy for Samantha.'
While
Williams doesn't specify the name of the reality show, but it would
appear it would be 'A Very Barry Branson' which was announced late last
year and was to premiere on the Great American Country Network.
Williams is requesting that the court order his baby mama not be allowed to speak to the media about the case or their relationship.

He also wants the judge to make it clear if she does, then she will lose custody of their daughter.
The actor is offering to pay just $900 a month in child support stating that he also has another child from a former marriage.
He
also notes that the support payments he makes are derived from a loan
that he took out to set up his musical show in Missouri.
But
he explains that income from the production is negative at the moment
and he points the blame at the public attacks on his character that
Elizabeth has made about him.
Elizabeth claims his estate is worth well over $11 million.
She says Williams received $1.7 million from his mother in December 2012 and that he owns several trusts.
Earlier
court documents show Elizabeth claimed Williams was initially angry and
verbally abusive when he found out she was pregnant.
She then said both she and her daughter almost died during delivery and that's when she says Williams was ready to be a family.
Samantha was born three months early - in August 2012.
