Randall Emmett and Ambyr Childers working on settlement amid alleged pedo investigation
Randall Emmett and Amybr Childers are working out their issues outside of court, according to new legal documents.
The exes were scheduled to have a hearing in their ongoing battle over restraining orders, but chose to postpone until Jan. 26 because they’re ‘working on a settlement’, court documents filed Jan. 24 and obtained exclusively by Page Six.
Representatives for the film producer and the “You” star did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.
The attempted settlement comes after a judge granted Childers, 34, a temporary restraining order against Emmett, 51, on December 22 following her claims that her ex-husband had “possible involvement in child exploitation and pedophilia” and was under investigation by the FBI.
The ‘Vice’ actress said she learned of the alleged investigation on Dec. 6 when she “was contacted by a special agent from the Federal Bureau of Investigation asking [her] questions about [Emmett’s] suspected of child exploitation and pedophilia.
The attempted settlement comes after the ‘You’ star claimed Emmett was being investigated for alleged child molestation.

The “Midnight in the Switchgrass” producer slammed the allegations immediately afterwards.
“At this point the lies have been pushed so far,” he said in a video posted to Instagram.
“We spent the day getting confirmation because we knew there was no truth to any of this, that the FBI never investigated me and aren’t investigating me because they don’t. there is nothing to investigate,” he added.
In a separate statement to Page Six, Emmett said, “I am not under investigation by the FBI or anyone else, and the idea that I am is beyond absurd.”
The restraining order Childers had obtained will remain in effect until their rehearing on Thursday, the documents say.
Childers, who currently shares 50/50 custody with the filmmaker, is seeking “sole legal and physical custody” of her and Emmett’s children, London, 12, and Rylee, 9,” for various reasons”.
Emmett is also in a custody battle with ex-fiancée Lala Kent over their one-year-old daughter, Ocean.
