Brazilian-American actress Morena Baccarin has been ordered to pay her estranged husband Austin Check USD 23,000 a month for the foreseeable future.
Baccarin, 36, was the family's breadwinner during their three-year marriage and Chick, an independent writer, director and producer, is currently unemployed, reported People magazine.
At a custody hearing in Los Angeles on Thursday, she was ordered to pay him USD 20,349 each month in spousal support until he remarries or dies, and USD 2,693 in child support until their son Julius, now 2, turns 18, according to court papers.
In September, a Los Angeles judge allowed Baccarin to move Julius with her to New York, where she shoots TV series "Gotham".
Baccarin is now expecting a baby with costar Ben McKenzie, 37.
The actress asked that the amount she pays to rent an apartment for Chick, 44, in New York City to live in when he visits Julius be deducted from her spousal support, but the judge denied her request.
