Carrey, ex-wife settle dispute

Jim Carrey has resolved a dispute over child support with his ex-wife, who claimed in court papers that their 15-year-old daughter could no longer get by on $10,000 a month, a spokesman for the actor said.

Carrey’s spokesman confirmed that the 41-year-old “Dumb and Dumber” star had reached an agreement with former wife Melissa Carrey but declined to reveal the terms.

In court papers filed in Los Angeles earlier this month, Melissa Carrey said that $10,000 a month “is not sufficient” to meet the needs of her 15-year-old daughter, Jane, who wants to pursue a career in the entertainment industry. Jane is the couple’s only child. They divorced in 1995.

Melissa Carrey, who has primary custody of her daughter, said she pays for her classes in drama, music recording and arranging, singing, tennis, dance, Pilates and computers but would like to sign her up for horseback riding lessons and a private ski instructor.
