Dr. Dre agrees to pay the alienated wife $ 2 million in temporary support

As if Dr. DreThe week was not hard enough … he agreed to pay his estranged wife $ 2 million in temporary child support – but he is not paying the $ 5 million she wants for divorce lawyers.

The music mogul and Nicole Young closed a deal that requires Dre to write a $ 2 million one-time check. That’s all he’s going to pay … at least until the next divorce hearing in April. Now it is up to Nicole to decide how much of that amount she will pass on to her lawyers.

As we reported, Nicole was demanding $ 2 million a month, PLUS $ 5 million in attorney fees.

Our sources say that Dre will continue to cover Nicole’s expenses in her Malibu apartment, as well as her mother’s home in Pacific Palisades for the next few months. However, Dre will NOT cover Nicole’s security costs … she will have to pay that starting at $ 2,000.

Dre and Young’s lawyers closed the deal in court, but we are told that Dre had to sign the deal from his bed at Cedars Sinai Hospital.

Remember … he is been distributing $ 293,306 per month on temporary support. Now, he can focus on his recovery.

TMZ told the story … Dre suffered a brain aneurysm earlier this week and he was rushed by ambulance to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. He was taken directly to the ICU. Dre later thanked his fans for their support and said that he is doing very well and receiving excellent service.
