Alarm bells seem to be ringing for actor Mel Gibson, as his former wife Oksana Grigorieva wants her child support increased to more than 100,000 dollars a month from 20,000 dollars.

An insider revealed that the 46-year-old singer, who currently receives 20,000 dollars each month as part of the couple's settlement, has asked the family law judge to increase her child support, TMZ.com reports.

The case is about to undergo trial, with the singer claiming that she needs to support a lifestyle of vacations, travel, lodging and other items.

Gibson and Grigorieva, who parted their ways in 2010, with the 'Dark Secret' hit-maker accusing the 60-year-old actor of domestic abuse, share custody of their six-year-old daughter Lucia.
