We often hear stories of parents that have a bad relationship with each other. But imagine if your dad said your mom raped him, because he didn’t remember having sex with her and she’s so ugly he would remember. Well that’s what rapper DMX’s son has to look forward to when he gets a little older and finds out the dirty details of the first few years of his life. Monique Wayne has just been awarded $1.5 million by a judge in a defamation case against DMX (born Earl Simmons). Wayne gave birth to DMX’s son in 2004, which he denied was his, and denied ever having slept with Wayne. When the paternity test came back and DMX was proven wrong, he publicly claimed that Wayne must have raped him after they met at a Washington D.C. nightclub in 2003.

In the interview [In Sister 2 Sister magazine] — which ran as a cover story in the October 2006 issue of the magazine that featured Simmons and his wife, Tashera, on the cover — DMX was quoted as saying, “She raped me. … That might sound like some bullsh–, [but] is that the only thing in the world that’s not possible? Because when I sleep, my [penis] be out. … DNA says it is [my child]. I don’t know. … If I did [have sex with her], I would remember. It ain’t like she’s a pretty girl.”

Yesterday Monique Wayne was awarded $518,400 for compensatory damages and $1 million for punitive damages. Her lawyer said DMX’s claims had nearly ruined Wayne’s life, and it’s not difficult to see how that could happen.

Wayne, who gave birth to a child with Simmons in 2004 and later won a paternity suit and child support, testified in the court hearing that Simmons admitted to her that he made the rape claim in an effort to placate his wife. A spokesperson for DMX could not be reached at press time.

Wayne’s lawyer, Stephanie Moran, told MTV News that her client had suffered “tremendously” as a result of Simmons’ allegedly false statements. “She’s been a resident of Maryland her whole life, she went to school there and works there, and people have come up to her and acted as if they believed the statement [by Simmons], and people can be very cruel,” Moran said. “She wasn’t comfortable going out, she was depressed; and at one point she worked in an environment in human relations in a place where they sold the magazine, and people came up to her in her place of employment [to ask about it].”

We could argue all day long about whether it’s possible for a man to be raped. But it DMX wasn’t likely the victim of rape according to a judge. It seems pretty obvious that he committed adultery, got a woman pregnant, and didn’t want to take responsibility. So instead of being a man about it to his wife, he claimed to be a victim and had nothing to do with it. I can’t even imagine that DMX will have any sort of relationship with his son by Wayne. Nothing makes it sound like he’d be interested in one, considering the acrimonious relationship he’s created with his child’s mother.
