Jonathan Majors, the talented actor known for his roles in projects like “Lovecraft Country” and “The Harder They Fall,” is facing more legal troubles as his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari, has filed a lawsuit against him. In the lawsuit, Jabbari details alleged instances of abuse that she claims occurred during their relationship, leading up to the March 2023 incident that resulted in Majors being convicted of misdemeanor assault and harassment.
According to Jabbari, the abuse began as early as 2021, shortly after they started dating. She describes a pattern of escalating behavior, including incidents where Majors allegedly threw her into a shower wall and threw objects at her in fits of anger. Jabbari also claims that Majors assaulted her on multiple occasions while he was in London filming “Loki,” and that he would become enraged over simple things like having company over or talking to her mother on the phone.
One particularly disturbing allegation in Jabbari’s lawsuit is that Majors slammed her head against a marble floor and strangled her during a violent outburst. She also repeats her claims that he hit her in the car during the March 2023 incident, when she tried to look at his phone and he allegedly twisted her fingers and threw her back into the vehicle.
While Majors was convicted in the criminal case, Jabbari is now seeking damages for defamation as well, claiming that he tarnished her reputation by denying the abuse allegations in interviews before and after the trial. Majors’ lawyer, Priya Chaudhry, has stated that they are preparing counterclaims against Jabbari.
This latest development in the ongoing legal battle between Majors and Jabbari sheds new light on the tumultuous relationship between the two, and raises important questions about the dynamics of power and control in intimate partner violence cases. It serves as a reminder that domestic abuse can happen in any relationship, regardless of the public personas of those involved.
As the case continues to unfold, it is important to remember that everyone has the right to safety and respect in their relationships. If you or someone you know is experiencing abuse, there are resources available to help. Domestic violence hotlines and shelters can provide support and assistance to those in need.
