Terrence Howard Tells Cops His Wife Is Extorting Him & He Has The Recording To Prove It

Terrence Howard is embroiled in a messy divorce right now. In the latest update in the saga, the actor filed a police report with the LAPD Monday, claiming his soon to be ex-wife is extorting him and apparently there’s a “shocking” tape to back up his claims. Details below.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ … Howard and his lawyer went to the LAPD to file the crime report. Howard claims Michelle Ghent Howard is squarely demanding money from him, in return for not making a Terrence sex tape and other embarrassing things public.

The former couple is in an epically bitter divorce battle. Among many things, Terrence claims Michelle is a racist who threatened to have him killed … by the Russians.

The LAPD had no official comment, but we’re told cops are in possession of the audio tape and they are investigating the extortion claim.
