First of all what many people mistake about them is that they had a divorce, but the truth is that they were never married in the first place so, she is his girlfriend and not his former wife. Arsenio and Cheryl dated for 15 years until 2002 and had a son together.
In the lawsuit, Cheryl claimed that the star at the high point in his career earned to around 12 million dollars and based on it Arsenio was paying very less in child support. But the actor refuses to pay to the demand. He thinks it is unfair to make him pay child support by his highest earning phase.

In his 2014 interview with Black Doctor, Arsenio opened about how he didn't want to leave the earth without enjoying the experience of fatherhood. He followed up by claiming how an epiphany-like moment with his son Cheron inspired him to make a comeback. He quipped:-
"It hit me: He knows I’m successful, but he’s never seen me grind. I don’t want him to grow up thinking this is easy. That’s when I knew it was time to go back. My new work schedule takes me away from him a bit — but the relationship we’ve built carries us through.”
Further, in the same interview, Arsenio claimed that experiencing fatherhood had made him younger as fathers tend to live through their offsprings.

He was a sports fanatic but never had the opportunity of watching or playing games with his father, so he wanted a son who he would give the things he never could experience. He shared his feelings in a statement he gave to blackcelebkids.com on 2013 where he said:-
“I and my girl wanted a kid. And that’s so important to me — to always be able to look in my son’s eyes and say, ‘You weren’t a mistake. You weren’t a surprise. I wanted you. I wanted you like my dad wanted me.’”
The legendary talk show host, however, didn't reveal who he meant when he said "my girl." As far as his fans are concerned, the stated girl might very well be the mother of his son or one of his girlfriends.
