Jeff Lewis continued to rant against his ex partner Gage Edward on Thursday after being sued by him amid their split.
After revealing on air during his SiriusXM show Jeff Lewis Live that he’d been served by Gage earlier this week, Lewis, 49, continued to call out his ex over the ‘ten pages of mistruths, exaggerations and mischaracterizations,’
He added that he and his lawyer have no intention of responding to the suit.
Lewis and former partner of 10 years Gage, share daughter Monroe, three, together.

‘You know what, I just don’t want to get dirty. This feels disgusting,’ Lewis continued. ‘[My lawyer] just went back to [Edward and his attorneys] and said, we’re not even gonna respond to this. We don’t agree with anything that was said.’
Gage is requesting legal support, equal shared custody of Monroe and also requesting to add his last name to Monroe’s name, changing it from Monroe Christine Lewis to Monroe Christine Edward Lewis.
Lewis also revealed that Gage is accusing him of negatively influencing his professional opportunities and inhibiting his design career.
Lewis denied doing it but admitted he told one client, Alder & Tweet, to hold off on hiring Gage until their legal battle has concluded.

Lewis then directly addressed his ex on the air, saying, ‘How much time must you spend writing a ten page fictional novel? It’s a lot of time’

‘Maybe you should be out there getting some more clients and you won’t be shaking me down for money.’
Lewis also expressed shock that Gage had got a character reference from a pre-school which expelled Monroe in September.
‘The reference letter attesting to what a great father [Gage] is from the headmistress of the school that kicked our kid out . . . really stuck out to me,

‘I mean, you’ve got to be scraping the barrel. I don’t even know if Gage met her more than six times, or had a conversation more than 5 minutes.’
Lewis previously revealed last year that Monroe had been expelled from the prestigious Montessori school after they received complaints about negative comments he had made about the school on his radio show.
Earlier this week the former Flipping Out star revealed Gage, 35, wants to alter their three-year-old daughter’s name from Monroe Christine Lewis to Monroe Christine Edward Lewis.
‘Yesterday, I was served by Gage,’ Jeff began. ‘He did file a request for order which means that we now have a hearing date. They put in all of their requests, like I want 50% and I want child support.’
He joked that maybe there was an option to ‘save a little bit of money’ and represent himself in front of a judge.
‘The one thing I just had to mention, even though there’s a 24 hour rule (his own personal motto to help avoid unnecessary decisions in a certain time period),’ he began. ‘One of the requests, and to me this is f***ing crazy … Gage is requesting that we change Monroe’s name.’
Jeff revealed earlier this week that Gage is requesting 50% – more than 3 days a week – custody of Monroe

‘He would like a name change,’ Jeff said. ‘He would like Monroe Christine Edward Lewis. Now just so we all know, Gage’s last name is Fredenburg. He goes by his middle name which is Edward’
When asked if the couple chose the name together, Lewis said ‘yes’ and divulged more into the new moniker up for discussion.
‘He would like a name change,’ Jeff said. ‘He would like Monroe Christine Edward Lewis. Now just so we all know, Gage’s last name is Fredenburg. He goes by his middle name which is Edward.’
Lewis added that maybe it would be a better idea to use a ‘surname’ instead of a middle name when changing titles.
‘Now I’m suggesting that, if he does for some reason get 50 percent custody, that we do change it to Monroe Christine Depressed Lewis.’
Jeff said that his initial reaction was that the request ‘seems kind of crazy’ and he would go forward with asking his lawyers about more information into the name change.
Jeff was also incredulous that Gage got a character reference from the school that expelled Monroe in September
The couple dated for more than 10 years before putting an end to their relationship at the beginning of 2019, with Jeff, at the time, taking full responsibility for not being emotionally available until it was too late to save the union.
They agreed to a temporary custody arrangement for Monroe, but Gage reportedly wants more than his allotted three days per week with a 50-50 split.
Monroe was born via a surrogate in 2016; Jeff is Monroe’s biological father and they used an egg donor.
Before Monroe’s birth, the exes had more embryos frozen and had been planning on having more children together before the break-up.
They had planned for their next baby to be Gage’s biological child.
Jeff has since moved on to find love in the arms of new boyfriend Scott Anderson and the couple have reportedly been dating for 11 months.
