Overview
- Sia retains primary custody under the existing interim arrangement, and Daniel Bernad remains limited to monitored visitation.
- Bernad alleged Sia is an unfit parent due to recent substance use and a concealed two‑week hospitalization, and he sought court‑ordered drug testing and tightly restricted visits.
- Sia denied recent drug use, said she has been fully sober for more than six months with weekly testing and a sober companion, and asserted she has repeatedly agreed to testing that Bernad refused to do regularly.
- Sia cited prior LAPD and DCFS inquiries into alleged illicit child pornography linked to Bernad’s hard drive as a reason for continued supervision, while authorities deemed the probes inconclusive or closed and Bernad denied wrongdoing, claiming evidence was planted.
- Beyond custody, Bernad is seeking $77,245 per month in child support and large spousal support and fees, while Sia says she has already paid him about $300,000 since March.
