One year after Sia filed for divorce from Dan Bernad, the couple reached an agreement over child support and custody of their two-year-old, Somersault Wonder Bernad, including the superstar singer/songwriter agreeing to pay her estranged husband $42,500.00 per month in spousal support.
According to court documents filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court on Monday (4.06,) as of April 1, the Australian-born musician will remit $42,500.00 per month in child support until Somersault turns 18.
Born Sia Kate Isobelle Furler, the 50-year-old has also accepted financial responsibility for their son’s private school tuition, health insurance, agreed-upon extracurricular activities and uninsured healthcare costs, reports People and Us Weekly.
Following a protracted custody battle, the former couple will share joint legal custody of Somersault, that will follow a set schedule that outlines specific weekdays and weekends, as well as a detailed breakdown of holiday plans. For example, Bernad will have Somersault for Father’s Day and Jewish holidays such as Hanukkah, while Sia will have their young son on Mother’s Day, Easter and Christmas, and will rotate custody for other occasions, like Thanksgiving.
The musician married Bernad in Italy in May 2023 and filed for divorce in March 2025, a year after their son was born.
Claiming Sia was an unfit parent, Bernad initially requested sole legal and physical custody of their son, and more than $250,000.00 in temporary spousal support, but a judge denied his petition.
In addition to Somersault, Sia is the mother to two adult adopted sons.
