What's more, the source claims, "The judge actually made it retroactive, as of February 20 of last year. So Mathew has actually been overpaying her for quite some time."

As a result, "he won't have to make any more payments for almost two years," the insider says.

Wright and Knowles have been warring for months over child support payments for their four-year-old son, Nixon.
