FKA Twigs is suing her ex-boyfriend, Shia LaBeouf for sexual battery and abuse. The two met on the set of LaBeouf’s 2019 film Honey Boy and dated for about a year. According to Variety, the lawsuit alleges LaBeouf admitted to an incident in which he slammed Twigs into his car and tried to strangle her. The case states the reason for the lawsuit is to protect any future romantic partners of LaBeouf from his abuse, saying, “This action has been brought not for personal gain, but to set the record straight, and to help ensure that no more women must undergo the abuse that Shia LaBeouf has inflicted on his prior romantic partners…The days in which LaBeouf can mistreat and harm women with impunity are over.”
