Shia LaBeouf FINALLY settles explosive sexual battery lawsuit with ex FKA Twigs
FKA Twigs has officially ended her legal battle with ex-boyfriend Shia LaBeouf, nearly four years after filing a high-profile lawsuit accusing the actor of abuse. According to court documents, obtained by TMZ, on Monday, the 37-year-old British musician (born Tahliah Debrett Barnett) has requested to dismiss all claims against LaBeouf, 39, with prejudice, meaning she cannot bring the case back to court in the future. The lawsuit, filed in 2020, sought $10 million in damages and alleged sexual battery, assault, and emotional distress during the couple's relationship. The two began dating after meeting on the set of LaBeouf's 2019 semi-autobiographical film Honey Boy, in which Twigs was cast. In a statement provided to attorneys for both parties confirmed the matter had been resolved privately. 'Committed to forging a constructive path forward, we have agreed to settle our case out of court. While the details of the settlement will remain private, we wish each other personal happiness, professional success and peace in the future,' the pair's respective attorneys said. LaBeouf was represented by Shawn Holley while Twigs hired Los Angeles-based lawyer, Bryan Freedman, who is currently defending actor Justin Baldoni in his legal battle against Blake Lively. Twigs' original complaint included several disturbing allegations, including claims that LaBeouf knowingly gave her a sexually transmitted disease and once threatened to crash a car with her inside. She also alleged he physically assaulted her at a gas station following that incident. LaBeouf has denied many of the allegations but issued a public statement at the time of the filing, acknowledging his history of harmful behavior. 'I have no excuses for my alcoholism or aggression, only rationalizations,' he told The New York Times. 'I have been abusive to myself and everyone around me for years. I'm ashamed of that history and am sorry to those I hurt.' In March 2024, Twigs detailed the aftermath of her relationship with LaBeouf in a vulnerable Vogue interview. 'I think naively I thought it would be like any other break-up, that I'd be sad for six months to a year, and then one day I'd wake up and everything would be fine,' she told the outlet. The performer continued: 'But the fact is being abused changes the whole of your nervous system. Because my window of tolerance is now much smaller than it used to be, my body manifests stress in quite extreme ways – it really shows me when it's upset.' Twigs filed her lawsuit against the star with a slew of explosive allegations, which the actor finally addressed in 2022, although the singer slammed his 'gaslighting'. In response to her explosive allegations, LaBeouf branded his ex a 'saint' and recalled how she 'saved' his life and inspired him to wake up and take responsibility for his actions. Meanwhile, Twigs called their relationship 'the worst thing I've ever been through in my life.' During his appearance on Jon Bernthal's podcast, Real Ones in 2022, he said: 'I hurt that woman. And in the process of doing that, I hurt many other people, and many other people before that woman. 'I was a pleasure-seeking, selfish, self-centered, dishonest, inconsiderate, fearful human being ... When I think about what my life has become, and what it is now, like what my purpose is now ... I need to be useful.' Among her allegations, Twigs accused Shia of violently attacking and strangling her, knowingly infecting her with an STD, and physical and verbal violence. But LaBeouf, who has been diagnosed with PTSD and alcoholism, insisted in 2022 that he is in a better place now. He explained; 'I'm in the tribe of the f***-ups. I'm a very public sinner, a very fallible person in the public sphere. What I think now my purpose is, is to not do… 'The other examples that we've had of how to navigate something like this — which is to go after the woman, or try to win a court case, or get back into a f****** movie or like get back on at all... 'My purpose, and I mean this with every fibre of my being, is to be instructive with my life, so that I can be an advertisement, like a billboard, for a principled way of living.' In her Vogue spread, FKA elaborated on the depths of her pain, writing: 'I've had to be very compassionate with myself and really listen to myself to get better... 'Now I want to challenge myself to know more about the simple, most pure and important things: love, nature, food, a nontoxic lifestyle, my body. The path I'm on is not the pastel pink yoga leggings aesthetic.' Since then, she has found love with Jordan Hemingway, with whom she went public with in March 2023. While speaking about her new romance, she gushed: 'I've kissed a few frogs to get there but I feel that Jordan listens to me and opens me up in a way that no one really has ever been able to.' 'When I'm with somebody who's not in the public eye in the way I am, I'm conscious of everything I can do to make that situation as comfortable as possible because I've been on the other side of it,' she explained. 'And it's really not nice. Right now I feel so ready to stand up for things that I believe in, to protect people who I love.' Meanwhile, LaBeouf is married to actress Mia Goth, whom he shares a daughter named Isabel. Over the years, the pair's relationship has weathered a few storms, including a separation and a divorce filing in 2018.
