Elf Star Faizon Love Faces Financial Freefall and Homelessness

Faizon Love, the actor famed for Elf, told a Florida courtroom he’s broke, has no permanent home, and relies on a friend for expenses as he faces two contempt-of-court charges in a child-support case with his ex, Tiffany Lee, who says he owes $250,000. He claims he earned nothing in 2025 and that his top income in the past five years was $13,000; his attorney argues that keeping him jailed would ruin his Hollywood reputation and ability to work. The judge released him and gave until July 1 to file a financial statement; Love, who has a history of legal trouble, last appeared in a 2023 film.
