Jonathan Majors Reveals He Was Sexually Abused from Age 9 as He Charts Comeback After Assault Conviction
Jonathan Majors says he unpacked childhood trauma during therapy and a domestic violence program he attended in the wake of his 2023 assault trial in New York City. The actor, 35, spoke to The Hollywood Reporter for his first formal interview since his April 2024 sentencing in a feature published Friday, March 14. Majors revealed he experienced "sexual abuse from both men and women from the time I was 9." Majors, who said his father left his family when he was 8, added, 'From people who are supposed to look after you, in the absence of a father. I was f---ed up.' Majors said he opened up to his mother — whom Majors remains close with, THR noted — about the abuse in recent months and she apologized for not being able to protect him. 'I'm like, 'It's not even an issue, mom. I just want you to know,' " he said of their conversation. "And now we can all get busy and continue to connect and grow and learn from it, because it's something that was in our family.' Majors' acting career quickly derailed after his March 2023 arrest in New York City over an alleged altercation with his ex-girlfriend Grace Jabbari; he was found guilty of two charges: misdemeanor assault in the third degree, recklessly causing physical injury as well as harassment in the second degree, after his December 2023 trial.

In that trial, Majors was also found not guilty of misdemeanor assault in the third degree with intent to cause physical injury and misdemeanor aggravated harassment in the second degree. He was fired by Marvel Studios immediately after a jury reached the verdict in his trial. Jabbari, his ex-girlfriend, dropped a separate civil lawsuit she had filed against Majors in November 2024. Majors told The Hollywood Reporter he is "unable to comment directly" on Jabbari's domestic violence allegations. Majors also told the outlet that processing his own experiences with abuse has led him to understand more about his own behavior in relationships. He and Meagan Good, whom Majors began dating in spring 2023, got engaged in November 2024. "There are no excuses, but by getting help, you begin to understand things about yourself," Majors said. Majors' interview comes as the actor prepares for his first movie to release since his criminal trial. Magazine Dreams, in which he portrays an aspiring bodybuilder, is in theaters March 21. That movie was filmed before his 2023 arrest. He has yet to film a new movie, and while he told THR he "absolutely" wants to keep acting, he said "that's not my call. I don't have a studio. And I've given up control.' If you or someone you know has been a victim of sexual abuse, text "STRENGTH" to the Crisis Text Line at 741-741 to be connected to a certified crisis counselor.
