Britney Spears’ criminal “ex-boyfriend” is a “deadbeat dad” who doesn’t pay child support for any of her nine children, the mother of five has claimed in an exclusive interview with DailyMail. com.
Paul Soliz Jr., 37, was photographed with a disheveled and underwear-clad Britney at the swanky Los Angeles hotel Chateau Marmont on Wednesday evening, surrounded by security and paramedics after she suffered an alleged seizure of screams.
Soliz was first linked to the Hit Me Baby singer as a housekeeper and handyman on her crew, but later reportedly became her lover.
DailyMail.com can now reveal that Soliz is already a father to at least nine children – and is being sued for child support by their mother as well as the Los Angeles Department of Child Support Services (DCSS).
Nicole Mancilla, 36, told DailyMail.com that Soliz cheated on her with Britney, didn’t pay the bills for his five children with her or his other children with other women, but still tried to visiting his mother’s home in Sylmar, California.
Paul Soliz Jr., 37, was photographed with a disheveled and underwear-clad Britney Spears at the swanky Los Angeles hotel Chateau Marmont on Wednesday evening.
The mother of his five children, Nicole Mancilla (pictured), called Soliz a “deadbeat dad” in an interview with DailyMail.com after the hotel incident.
“Just let them know my husband fell for Britney Spears shit. He was married and now he refuses to have children,” Mancilla said. “He neglects his children for her.”
DailyMail.com was unable to locate court records confirming that Soliz and Mancilla were married.
“That’s Nick Cannon from EBT,” Mancilla added, referring to Electronic Benefits Transfer food stamps and the TV host who has 12 children with multiple women.
Mancilla said Soliz lived with Spears, but maintained his official residence in a bungalow a few blocks from her home.
“He’s on probation, so if he’s officially living at her house, they have access to search his house. That’s why he still has an address here,” she said.
Mancilla and her five children live with her mother, Sandra Smith, a 60-year-old surgical assistant, in her three-bed townhouse in Sylmar.
“He has ten children. He doesn’t support any of them,” Smith told DailyMail.com. “They have a one-year-old together and he doesn’t even pay attention to it either.”
“He’s a deadbeat father,” she added. “It’s difficult for me, because he doesn’t support any children. And they are in my house.
“Nicole is torn by everything. This has been going on for five years. And he doesn’t leave her alone, he keeps coming back.
“I wouldn’t let him see the kids if it were me. She does it, because she wants them to have a father. But I wouldn’t want a father like that.
Mancilla, who lives in a three-bedroom house in Sylmar, claimed Soliz cheated on her with Britney Spears and now “neglects” her children for the pop star
Mancilla’s mother, Sandra Smith (pictured), a 60-year-old surgical assistant, told DailyMail.com that Soliz is the father of at least nine children, none of whom he financially supports, she claims.
Court records obtained by DailyMail.com show a civil action against Soliz filed by DCSS on March 22, with a request for Soliz to pay $1,167 in monthly child support plus 50 percent of medical costs for 9-year-old Trystan Alexzander Soliz ; Dylan Andrew Soliz, 8, and baby Violet Pearl Soliz, 21 months.
The complaint says the children have been receiving public benefits since January 2020.
It says Soliz’s income is $2,774 a month and Mancilla’s is zero.
In September 2021, a Los Angeles judge determined that Soliz was the father of Trystan and Dylan, as well as 17-year-old Cesar Martinez-Mancilla and 6-year-old Nicholas Soliz.
Baby Violet’s parentage has not been officially determined by the courts.
LA County also filed a lawsuit against Soliz in 2019 for $615 monthly child support he allegedly owed Alexandra Gonzalez for their twins, 5-year-old Anevy and Avery Soliz.
A January 2022 judgment confirmed he was the father, but said his child support obligation was “void.”
Spears sparked mental health concerns after he was photographed barefoot and topless outside Chateau Marmont in the early hours of Thursday, May 2, following an alleged fight with Soliz.
The singer, 42, had scraped knees and looked disheveled as she walked out flanked by her security and her criminal ‘boyfriend’.
It was claimed that Britney and Paul argued before a woman matching Britney’s description “harassed and threatened hotel employees and guests.”
Shortly after the incident on Thursday morning, Britney shockingly shared a video of herself dancing in a sparkly suit and heeled boots at her home in Thousand Oaks.
While Britney insisted in February that she was single, she has been linked to Paul in recent months following his split from husband Sam Asghari.
Soliz and Britney have known each other since he was hired to do chores and maintenance around her house about a year ago, according to the American weekly.
Speaking to the publication, he revealed he had fixed items around the house, including fixing door handles and unblocking the toilet.
Insiders told Page Six that Paul was fired from his job for Britney, but that she “still chose to spend time with ‘him’ and didn’t try to hide their new friendship.”
In August, Britney was seen driving a white Mercedes-Benz with a mystery man believed to be Paul in her passenger seat in Calabasas, California.
That same month, her husband Sam reportedly filed for divorce, citing “irreconcilable differences,” leading Britney to enjoy an alliance with her former housekeeper.
Britney Spears will not have to pay alimony to her third husband Sam Asghari under the terms of their divorce agreement, it has been confirmed.
An insider told DailyMail.com in September that the two were not officially dating, clarifying: “They had a short fling after Sam left, but that was it.
“Britney met him twice and, at the time, (she) was unaware of his criminal past. She no longer has any communication with him.
Soliz was convicted of disturbing the peace in April 2014. His plea deal led to the dismissal of the child endangerment charge against him.
He was convicted of driving without a license in 2016, Us Weekly reported, citing court documents. A charge of driving with a suspended license was dismissed that year after a plea deal, according to Page Six.
In December 2020, Soliz was convicted of gun possession, while working for Spears.
Then, in September 2023, he was seen in San Fernando Superior Court after allegedly violating his probation.
Despite his past, Paul insisted he wasn’t a “bad guy” in an interview with Backgrid last September.
He admitted that he had “a handful of children” and that one of the mothers had died.
“I have custody of my children, I’m not a bad guy. I own my own business. I do engineered tiling by a licensed contractor,” he said.
