Paula Patton is ever the doting mother as she and her son Julian go shopping in Calabasas

Paula Patton was seen spending time with her son, Julian, at the Calabasas Farmers Market on Saturday afternoon.

The 45-year-old actress appeared to be enjoying her time with her child, aged ten, while they made their way around the open-air area before walking their purchases back to their car.

The performer shares her son with her former husband, Robin Thicke, whom she divorced in 2015.

Patton and Thicke initially met during their teenage years when they ran into each other at an 18-and-under-club.

The two quickly began a relationship and went on to tie the knot in 2005 after several years of dating.

The former couple waited for five more years before they welcomed Julian into their lives.

They remained together until 2014 when they announced that they were separating, and they finalized their divorce the following year.

Patton and Thicke then began a lengthy custody battle that was centered on the Blurred Lines singer’s alleged abusive treatment of his son.

The actress requested that her former spouse’s time with Julian be limited due to the alleged beatings that the hitmaker forced on his child.

Legal documents that were obtained by People noted that the actress had ‘become concerned about [Robin]’s drinking and drug use, as well as the forms of punishment he is using to discipline Julian.’

The singer countered by noting that he would spank his son ‘on a very rare occasion, and only as a last resort.’

The performer added that his treatment of his child ‘never exceeded age-appropriate discipline.’ 

The request was ultimately shot down, and an insider spoke to the media outlet and told the media outlet that the performer ‘wanted more custody because of her allegations of physical abuse, which are untrue and unfounded.’ 

The former couple eventually worked out a custody agreement two years after their divorce was finalized.
