THE CHALLENGE star Christopher “CT” Tamburello’s estranged wife, Lilianet Solares, filed for emergency sole custody of their 7-year-old son Christopher, but a judge denied her request, The U.S. Sun has exclusively learned.
CT, 42, has been involved in a nasty court battle with Lilianet, 31, since he filed for divorce in November 2022 after four years of marriage.

The U.S. Sun can exclusively reveal Lilianet filed an Emergency Motion for Injunction to Suspend all Timesharing and for Sole Parental Responsibility on April 7.
The filing came just days after the MTV star went on a heated social media rant where he accused his ex of defamation, hiding money and more shocking claims.
An emergency hearing took place on April 12.
Florida court papers read: “The Wife’s request to suspend the Husband’s timesharing and parental responsibility is denied.

“The Husband, through agreement in open court, shall not discuss, or make public, any intimate details regarding the parties’ litigation, settlement negotiations, the minor child, any allegations towards the Wife including defamatory statements about the Wife, in any form, including but not limited to social media posts and/or interviews.”
The parties also agreed to not discuss this matter with their child and to not “make disparaging comments about the other parent.”
A Guardian Ad Litem, which is an attorney for the minor child, was appointed to the case.
CT is responsible for 75 percent of fees and costs for the Guardian Ad Litem, while she’s responsible for the remaining 25 percent.

Lilianet filed evidence ahead of the hearing including a “screen recording of a social media post,” which is likely CT’s Instagram tirade, a direct message from a fan of offensive comments towards her, a comment request from a media outlet, and one other filing not made public.
According to court papers, the current temporary custody agreement reads: "The Wife shall exercise timesharing with the minor child on Mondays and Tuesdays of every week, and the Father shall exercise timesharing with the minor child on Wednesdays and Thursdays of every week.
“The parties shall alternate weekends from Friday until Monday, starting with the Wife having timesharing with the minor child from Friday until Monday the weekend of February 3, 2023.”
CT'S CLAIMS
In the now-deleted Instagram video obtained by People Magazine, CT said: "I'm tired of getting' dragged. Look, I can look my mother, my father, my son, baby mama, her parents, too, and God in the eyes… I can honestly say I've given you everything you asked for, including this divorce. Why am I getting dragged? Defamation."
He also accused his ex of "hiding money," as he allegedly said in the video: “It wasn't [until] mediation when she talked about, the mediator said she's not going to get alimony because she's making 70 grand a year.
"Wait, how much? 'You didn't know?' No, I didn't know! F***, where's all the money? Good question. It wasn't until we got the financial statements that we realized that me and CJ, were her secret life."
The Challenge star claimed Lilianet initially didn’t want child support or alimony at first.
But in their temporary court agreement, CT agreed to pay his ex the deposit in the amount of $7,200 for her rental property, as well as $761 in monthly child support.
He said in the video: "I'm hemorrhaging for the next how many months paying for everything.”
CT continued to rant: "Why are you still living in my house? Oh, here we go, now 'hostile environment' this, that and the other thing. You're trying to kick me out of the house? Full custody of the kid?
“I didn't know I had a life insurance policy. I don't know who's counseling her. The reason she's upset [is] because she wanted to file, she didn't think I was going to do it."
People Magazine claimed she posted a screenshot of the definition for Narcissistic Personality Disorder with the caption "All [I] am going to say..."
