FKA Twigs and Shia LaBeouf Settle Lawsuit Over Abuse Allegations
FKA Twigs has reached a settlement with Shia LaBeouf in her lawsuit accusing him of abuse, ending a five-year legal battle.
In the settlement confirmed on Tuesday, lawyers representing both FKA Twigs and Shia LaBeouf reported that they have mutually agreed to resolve the lawsuit outside of court. Barnett, best known for her musical works, alleged in court documents that LaBeouf subjected her to "relentless abuse" during their time together, including incidents of strangulation and psychological manipulation.
LaBeouf, while often denying the specific allegations, has acknowledged his struggles with personal behavior and expressed regret for his past actions. Previous discussions had indicated that Barnett sought a dismissal of all claims against LaBeouf, indicating a firm resolution to avoid further litigation on this charged matter.
The artists met on the set of the film "Honey Boy" in 2018 but ended their romance the following year amid reported conflicts in their working schedules. Barnett, in a 2021 podcast interview, discussed the emotional toll the relationship took on her, describing experiences of feeling controlled and suffering from PTSD as a result of the abusive dynamics shared with LaBeouf.
This legal conclusion provides both parties a chance to move on from the tumultuous period of their lives. FKA Twigs, who recently released her new album "Eusexia," continues to receive acclaim in the music industry. LaBeouf's recent projects include appearances in various films, cementing his status in Hollywood despite ongoing controversies regarding his personal life.
The settlement marks a significant moment for both individuals, with a focus on healing and personal growth as they transition away from their shared past.
