The British musician FKA twigs has sued her ex-boyfriend, the actor and "Transformers" star Shia LaBeouf (34), for physical and emotional abuse.
The lawsuit filed in a Los Angeles court accused LaBeouf of relentless abuse, including sexual assault, assault and the exercise of emotional agony, US media reported on Friday.
"I want to draw attention to the tactics that people who abuse other people use to control you and take away your own agency," said FKA twigs, whose real name is Tahliah Debrett Barnett, of the New York Times.
Many of the allegations were false, LaBeouf defended himself against the newspaper - but also said: “I have no excuses for my alcohol addiction or my aggression, only rationalizations.
I've been abusing myself and everyone around me for years. ”He's ashamed and sorry.
During the relationship with LaBeouf in 2018 and 2019, she had "the worst" of her life, said FKA twigs.
“I don't think people would think this would happen to me.
But that's exactly that thing.
It can happen to anyone. "
