The mediation has come after the actress filed a lawsuit against the 34-year-old singer demanding  â€śthe immediate return of children wrongfully removed or wrongfully retained,” and alleged that the “wrongful retention” started on September 20. As per reports, the divorce filing stated that the former couple had a prenup and asked for a parenting plan for continuous contact with both parents.
