Louis Tomlinson: My Baby Mama Needs a Muzzle

Louis Tomlinson is willing to settle his custody beef with baby mama Briana Jungwirth, but only if she agrees to keep their relationship and kid off social media.

TMZ broke the story, the One Direction singer filed legal docs for joint custody, because he claims Briana's denied him access to 5-month-old Freddie.

We're told Louis would like to avoid a court battle if they can come to terms. Louis wants pre-approval rights of any Freddie pics Briana wants to post.

For her part, Briana says she has a right as a proud mom to post pics of their son, and she says she hasn't trashed Louis so he has nothing to complain about.

As for the source of the conflict, Louis is convinced Briana is blinded by jealously over his relationship with Danielle Campbell, and she went crazy when Freddie came home with the smell of Danielle's perfume. Louis thinks things will be fine if Briana just moves on.

But we're told Briana fires back ... jealously isn't in her playbook. Her concern about Danielle is purely about Freddie ... she believes Louis' GF may be a crazed fan, and it worries her.
