FKA Twigs and Shia LaBeouf Finalize Settlement in Abuse Lawsuit
The legal battle that began in 2020 ends as both parties agree to maintain privacy on settlement details.
FKA Twigs, whose real name is Tahliah Debrett Barnett, and Shia LaBeouf have officially settled her lawsuit filed in 2020, which accused LaBeouf of a range of physical, mental, and emotional abuses during their relationship. Details of the settlement were kept confidential; however, legal representatives indicated in a joint statement that both parties have agreed to part ways amicably.
Barnett's earlier allegations described a dark reality of relentless abuse that included mental harassment and physical violence. Specific incidents included being "strangled" and being thrown against a car during arguments, experiences that she later reflected on as leaving her with PTSD. In interviews, she has discussed the long-lasting effects of her relationship with LaBeouf and the struggle for recovery.
LaBeouf, who has denied many of the allegations while acknowledging his own abusive history, expressed remorse during previous statements. He stated he aimed to accept accountability for his actions and recognized the pain he inflicted on those close to him.
The couple first connected while filming Honey Boy in 2018 and then dated for nine months. They parted ways in 2019, citing busy work schedules. While there was an initial trial date set, it had been postponed multiple times before this settlement brought closure to the case.
Despite the complexities of their past, representatives conveyed that both Barnett and LaBeouf wish each other happiness and success moving forward. Barnett continues to pursue her music career, having released her latest album, Eusexua, earlier this year. LaBeouf, known for his roles in major film franchises, has most recently appeared in the crime drama Henry Johnson.
