On February 26, the Monday after Wendy's Lifetime docuseries aired, which Kevin was also listed as an executive producer on, the building he had been living at for only a handful of months served him with an eviction notice after he allegedly failed to pay his rent.
The filing stated, "This is an action to evict the tenant from the premises."
It went on to allege that Kevin, who signed the lease in November, had failed to pay February's rent, and owed the building a total sum of $4,317.08.
His rent, according to the lease agreement was $3,731 a month.

Kevin was served a three-day notice of non-payment of his rent on February 6.
By March 5, however, it appears the matter was resolved, as the attorney for the building filed a notice to dismiss the case.
PAST EVICTION
This isn't the first time Kevin faced eviction at an apartment in Miami.
The U.S. Sun exclusively reported in 2022 that Kevin had been evicted from his luxury $2 million apartment for failure to pay his rent.

That eviction came on the heels of his mother, and her finances, being placed in a financial conservatorship.
In those eviction papers, Kevin said his mother had always paid for his housing.
"As the lease approached the end, my mom went through some health issues that put the court in control of her finances," Kevin said of the lease that ended in February 2022.
As The U.S. Sun previously reported, Wendy's only child, who lived in the lap of luxury and enjoyed the financial perks of growing up as the son of a wealthy TV star, is now living a much different life.
This comes after her finances were taken over by a court-appointed guardian.
INSIDE KEV'S NEW LIFE
Kevin, who was previously fully financially supported by Wendy, 59, no longer has the extra cushion her credit cards had afforded him.

These days, Wendy's son can be seen driving around Miami in a beat-up 2019 Honda Civic while attending school and promoting various parties he's throwing around town for cash.
He is also currently enrolled as a full-time student at Barry University and court records reveal a 529 plan set up by his mother helps support him.
During the Lifetime docuseries about Wendy's life which aired in late February, Kevin made statements about spending his mother's money on her credit cards, which left Wendy fans stunned.
As the lease approached the end, my mom went through some health issues that put the court in control of her finances.

Kevin told Lifetime cameras, "When my mom was living down here, as one can imagine, it's not a cheap lifestyle.
"The courts tried to frame it as though I was making all these charges for my own happiness.
"My mom has never been a cheap person so whether it be flying her back and forth on private planes or even paying for appointments," he told cameras.
"It was all under one American Express."
His cousin, Travis Finnie, then revealed that Kevin ended up spending over $100,000 of his mom's money on food delivery apps.
"To put it into perspective, Kevin's birthday party that his mom threw was $120,000," Wendy's nephew explained.
"Kevin's rent was $80,000. Kevin's Uber Eats probably exceeded $100,000 that his mom approves.
"So for them to have a court case and ripping him away from taking care of his mother is very questionable."
WHERE IS WENDY?
As The U.S. Sun previously revealed, Kevin doesn't know exactly where his mother is.

"Kevin has spoken to his mom occasionally, and he knows she's in some sort of treatment facility, but he's not sure exactly what it is, or where it is," an insider said.
He is also unable to call her, but she can call him.
TERRIFYING DIAGNOSIS
Alcohol-Related Brain Damage
As The U.S. Sun previously exclusively reported, Wendy was diagnosed with alcohol-related brain damage in 2019 during a rehab stint in Florida.
An insider explained that there was a brain scan done as part of Wendy's rehab stay in Delray Beach that year.
After the scan, a neurologist sat down with the star, her son, and her then-husband, Kevin Hunter Sr., 51.
"The doctor explained to them that Wendy was suffering from alcohol-related brain damage. They told her that her alcohol abuse had done permanent damage to the layers in her brain," the source said.
"She was warned then and there that if she continued to drink, the damage would only get worse."
In that meeting, they gave Wendy a devastating prognosis.
The doctors at the rehab foretold of the eventual decline of Wendy's cognitive abilities, which has become apparent to those who have come in contact with the star in recent years.
"They told her that if she kept drinking, she would continue to grow more forgetful, that she wouldn't remember people's names, and eventually, she could forget who people even were," the source said.
After a comment call was sent to Wendy's team, they released a statement saying Wendy had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia and aphasia in 2023.
“The decision to share this news was difficult and made after careful consideration, not only to advocate for understanding and compassion for Wendy but to raise awareness about aphasia and frontotemporal dementia and support the thousands of others facing similar circumstances," the statement read.
