Personal Life
Joe Budden has been in a number of high-profile relationships, publicized by the media, in his lyrics, and on Twitter. He was involved in a long-time relationship with video model Esther Baxter; their break up was detailed in Budden's freely released song "Ordinary Love Shit Pt. 3 (Closure)". In this song he accuses Baxter—while pregnant with hers and Budden's child—of cheating on him with NFL runningback Derrick Ward. Statements by Baxter made in an interview claim that Budden abused her and caused her to miscarry. She also claims that while they were dating, Budden was inappropriately flirtatious with women on Twitter.
Budden has a son from a previous relationship. In 2010, he was wanted by New Jersey police in relation to unpaid child support payments.
In early 2012, Joe Budden announced that he was dating someone. However, it wasn't until August 2012 that he revealed his relationship with Kaylin Garcia publicly.

Famous quotes containing the words personal life, personal and/or life:
“Wherever the State touches the personal life of the infant, the child, the youth, or the aged, helpless, defective in mind, body or moral nature, there the State enters “woman’s peculiar sphere,” her sphere of motherly succor and training, her sphere of sympathetic and self-sacrificing ministration to individual lives.”
—Anna Garlin Spencer (1851–1931)
“Nothing strengthens the judgment and quickens the conscience like individual responsibility. Nothing adds such dignity to character as the recognition of one’s self-sovereignty; the right to an equal place, everywhere conceded—a place earned by personal merit, not an artificial attainment by inheritance, wealth, family and position.”
—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
“Our life is March weather, savage and serene in one hour.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
