Adam was ordered to pay a colossal sum of $25000 to his former wife as his annual income was also increased from $3.6 million to $4.08 million within three years from 2002.
The former pair has two twin children, Sarah and Michael. Their 2007's court paper states that Adam was seeking to reduce his child support payments from around $27,000 to $12,000 per month.
Accused Of Sexual Harassment
Adam was one of the victims of sexual misconduct. He was charged with assaulting, actor Terry Crews and his agent. In response to the law, Terry alleged that Adam touched his private parts in a middle of a party that took place on February 2016. Adam was suspended for a month, and WME didn't pay him the salary.
According to TMZ, Adam was drunk at the event. Adam apologized to Terry the next day and stated that the conduct wasn't sexual and Terry wasn't injured. Both Los Angeles County District Attorney and L.A. City Attorney rejected his criminal charge.
Adam is now back to his work after his clearance from the assault. Nevertheless, Terry is furious over Adam’s approval from the harassment probe. Terry refused to slam Adam Venit's clients and also tweeted a post on 2 December 2017. He wrote,
“I respect and understand why many of Adam Venit’s @WME clients remain silent, just like many victims do. There is so much to lose. I will not be shamed— but I also will not shame anyone else,”

However, the allegation about Adam's rumored sexual misconduct will leave a mark on his professional career. He is not gay, but his rumored sexual misconduct with Terry always questions his sexuality.
But Terry has again reopened the sexual controversy with Adam that occurred back in 2016. He provided some evidence to a US Senate Committee on 26 June 2018 and stated,
"The assault lasted only minutes, but what he was effectively telling me while he held my genitals in his hand, was that he held the power. That he was in control. This is how toxic masculinity permeates culture."
One of the Senators named Dianne Feinstein asked Terry why he didn't fight back against Adam who assaulted him sexually years ago. He replied that he was aggressive in the beginning but later cooled down.
Further, he revealed that he left the party with his wife, Rebecca King-Crews, who always taught him not to fight when he gets provoked. After the alleged sexual misconduct, Terry visited Adam’s agency the next day where his management team said,
'We're gonna do everything in our power. We are gonna handle this, Terry. You're right, it is unacceptable.’ But there were no any measures of the consequences taken by Adam’s agency house.
On the other hand, the famous rapper, 50 Cent shared an Instagram post stating that Terry’s private part size could have prevented the attack. In an interview with TMZ, Terry talked about 50 Cent's post and gushed that he loves the rapper's music while working. Humorously, he said he proves that size doesn't matter when it comes to sexual assault.
