Nick Knowles' ex Jessica Rose Moor slams 'a**holes' who don't pay enough child support.

She was said to be back on good terms with estranged husband Nick Knowles, 55, following an alleged dispute over money. 

Yet Jessica Rose Moor appeared to take a series of digs at her ex as she called out 'a**holes' who 'abandon' their families and then pay minimal child support.

Taking to Instagram on Thursday, the 30-year-old shared a picture with their four-year-old son Eddie alongside a lengthy caption about the struggles of being a single mother. 

She wrote: 'I am not one for offering life advice on too many things but here’s something I feel like I am able to offer one tiny insight of wisdom into. 

'Next time you are talking to a woman - be it a friend or someone you barely know, about the fact that she was LEFT by her partner to raise their child or children alone, please for the love of God don’t say “At least he pays for him/her/them.” 

'The man’s financial lifestyle will change very little as he will potentially give half (if he’s very generous - this is unlikely) but normally a quarter of his earnings to his ex partner who will be expected to raise the child or children on this amount. 


'He will allocate the rest of the money to himself and life will, for him, continue as usual. So the abandoned family have less money, and the Mum has no support in the house by way of raising the child or children anymore.'


She continued: 'The man will put pressure on the woman to work if she doesn’t already - so she has less money, less support (if any) in looking after the child and less time but is expected to balance it all. 

'The man who has CHOSEN to leave said family and now contributes less financially and emotionally in the child or children’s life will be applauded by society for every input no matter how small - from the fact he continues to see his child, or children, or the fact he actually pays to raise the family he decided to create and then leave - because some a**holes don’t, apparently it’s a big deal when they do. 

'The woman gets applauded for nothing - not for the late nights or the early mornings, being the constant, the daily pick up and drop off, the food shopping, the meals, the endless clothes washing, the play dates, the staying up until mid night creating costumes for school events, the lack of social time or the sacrifices she makes. 

'Every detail that goes into every second of every day of being the thankless parent that - despite how shit life gets - DOESN’T leave. So if you’re trying to be comforting instead of saying “At least he pays” try saying something like “You’re an awesome human and your children are going to be so proud of you” coz, ain’t that the truth.'
